Description

A pristine copy of this out of print collection. Laid in is a Hi De Ho store flyer for a signing for S. Clay Wilson.

From the publisher:

The last of the Zap artists to be anthologized, Wilson has always been the most extreme. His wild stories of pirates, bikers, and deviants, centering around the character of the Checkered Demon, have kept their humor and philosophical bent while keeping their author far from mainstream comics publishing. This is what the cognoscenti have to say about the latest wonder from Last Gasp: "I have always found Wilson's art hilarious, relevant, and timely. Should have been collected a long time ago!" - William S. Burroughs. "My fate sealed, doomed to subliminal exposure to S. Clay Wilson waves, I found myself immune to the sophomoric antics of Curious George or the coy alliteration of Cat in the Hat. Luckily, I outgrew the bed but, sadly, not before I developed dorsal spines on my penis." - Leonardo DiCaprio. "The Demon is an inspirational figure for poets and bikers alike. Wilson's creations are the heights of the underground." - Michael McClure. "The madness, villainy, and corruption let loose in Wilson's den of iniquity is as scarringly unforgettable as it is beyond all hope of redemption or exorcism." - Carlo McCormick"
