CLOUD COMICS

cloud comics

Head Imports 1971/Kitchen Sink 1972
Cloud Comix (which changed to Cloud Comics for issue 2 for no discernable reason) is one of those comic titles that probably didn’t help the underground comic book movement prosper. By 1969, the comic revolution was well underway, and some pretty crappy books began to emerge on the market. All through the early 1970s, publishers were churning out one underground after another trying to capitalize on the movement, and they would take just about anybody and their half-dead grandmother to create an underground comic, whether they had any talent or not.

FUKT UP FUNNIES

Head Imports 1972
Fuktup Funnies is a 1972 one-shot that appears to have come and gone without leading to any semblance of a cartooning career for anyone involved. These types of comics are fairly common in the underground world (Comic Book, Dirt Ball Funnies, Hit the Road, Noof Unnies, among many), though Fuktup Funnies is among the handful of those that were actually pretty good comic books.

ROXY FUNNIES

Head Imports 1972
Jay Lynch provides an outstanding cover for a comic that honors his history, as it reprints an early (1969) Nard n’ Pat story from Cavalier Magazine. Jay Kinney also pals up with Rory Hayes for some excellent panels in “Schizo,” while Kim Deitch contributes a funny story called “Offing the Pig.” The comic also features Art Spiegelman and Jim Siergey, but the main prize of this comic is still the brilliant cover art by Lynch.
