...is like Reeally & Truly... On Acid!
ActuallY I mean that in a good way, it's quirky lightweight superhero fun from Morrison, as opposed to the dark heavyt weirdness of The Filth, and loks like its going to be a highly enjoyable read.
Da Fug!
Liked the first issue, some possible darkness in what the fishy friend forgot (is this King Trout's next supporting role??)

As a big fan of Morrison (love Doom Patrol,Invisibles & The Filth) I found this massively disapointing.
I'll still buy the rest though...just in case!
I loved Invisibles, but didn't think much of The Filth. Morrisons X-Men is the only mainstream Marvel I've bought (in TPB format) ever, and I thoroughly enjoyed it.
I'm giving Seaguy a miss though. Firstly because I'm trying to cut back on the number of miniseries that I buy, and secondly, if it's any good, I can wait for the inevitable tpb.
I only really enjoyed the Cassandra Nova storyline of Morrison's New X-Men. I thought everything else was vastly overrated, especially all that 100 years in the future tosh.
I'm not sure anyone really rated the future storyline that much, it ended on a bit of a damp squib there.
More of a dead duck that a swan song. Nice art though.
Yeah, X Men works a lot better if it ends with #150. Even if the future story does have the fabulous throwaway idea that one guy's mutant superpower is "he has a flying car."
But I loved Seaguy. It was light, breezy, and something genuinely unexpected and fun on every page. If you're waiting for the trade, it might be a long, long wait (Sebastian O finally comes out as a TPB in July), so I'd recommend trying it out now.

au contraire!
Month after month the least objective reviewers in Comics International were giving it 9 out of 10.
Read Seaguy this morning whilst eating my breakie (first Bristol comic!)... Utterly mentalist, I loved it! Bonkers fun with a nice undercurrent of pure evil.
Of course I'm now going to be sub-vocalising every thing The Trout says in a 'da fug!' accent!
