The Unofficial Underground Comix thread... 14 14

[OtherEric]

I think this title is generally credited as an underground from the UK.  I've got the last two issue as well.  Not sure if Near Myths is considered more an underground or an independent, it's where Talbot started to really work on Luther Arkwright after the short story in the third issue here:

As promised, here are a few covers from some international comix in my collection:

Germany
Zomix #1 (D.K.S.A.G., 1979)

Greece
Χαυλιόδοντας

Sweden
Näst Sista Striden (Comix Nostra, 1973)

Switzerland
Paranoia City Anzeiger (1972)

Yugoslavia (Slovenia)
Magna Purga (Študentska Založba, 1977)

I have thousands of other examples. I've been collecting and documenting this stuff for a very long time. Mind you, I mostly ignore the stuff that has American reprints, nice as they are, but there's just so much of that out there and so little space left to stuff! That's to say, I strive to collect comix that were created by people native to the region they were published in.
 

 

 

 

 

WOW WOW WOW This is impressive. Too good to believe. Congratulation. AAAAA++++

"thousands of other examples"!!! Really you need to share with people, what about a web site of cover scans?

Was digging through some "modern" drek tonight in an effort to thin out the herd and was surprised to hit some Jack Jackson, illustrating both issues of Joe Lansdale's Dead in the West (1993).  A great fit, really.  Bonus is a Timothy Truman autograph (who did the covers) tucked in the back of one of the issues - I guess I'd never even looked in these comics before.  Truman shares some real estate with Jackson since he did some historical type of comix too with his Simon Girty graphic novel.  Keepers.
