Anyone have any info on "Martini Barton" or "Campus Howl"?

I stopped in a 1/2 Price Books while I was traveling for business and picked up a couple of comic magazines, which I really know nothing about.

 

The first one is Campus Howl and is Vol. 1 Issue 1.

 

 

The second was Martini Barton, a graphic novel from Fantagraphics

 

 

I only paid a few bucks for each of them so I am not too concerned with overpaying. Just curious if these are desirable books or not.

 

Thanks.

What year are those from? The first one is 99.99% likely to be Jack Davis artwork (edit: DUHHHH it says "Jack Davis" ....I am slow today), so I'm guessing it's from the early 1960s? The 2nd one looks like a Peter Bagge cover (edit: DUHHHH it says "Peter Bagge" right on the cover) or some other underground from around the early 1990s. They look fun -- you'll have to tell us about the interior stuff. By the way, I really hope the cover art on the 2nd one is from BEFORE Sept. 2001....otherwise it's in rather awful taste. It must be a reference to the first bombing which was what, 1993? The WTC cover likely makes it more desirable as a historical artifact. And Jack Davis covers are always desirable for anybody who is a fan of Mad Magazine artists.

Most likely a 90's cover. Bagge is awesome

Yep, Martini Barton is from '94 and the other is the late 50's. It is pretty funny to read what was considered risque back then compared to now.

Anyone have any idea on the value of the Campus Howl book? I can't seem to find anything on it.

 

Thanks,
