All week, fans have been paying tribute to Dave Brockie a.k.a. Oderus Urungus of GWAR, who died Sunday night. Over on Facebook, his personal page has become a memorial page, with fans writing touching tributes and posting/tagging photos of themselves with Oderus.
None of those tributes struck me as hard as the above illustration of Beavis & Butthead reacting to the news. It's definitely not an official illustration by Mike Judge and I think I remember seeing this same image right after 9/11, but still the message resonated with me.
GWAR gained many fans from being featured on Beavis & Butthead. The two metal fans, the protype for future commenters on this website, basically shit on everything but GWAR was one of the few bands they agreed ruled!
