KITCHEN SINK

KITCHEN SINK

Kitchen Sink (1970s-1999)
Kitchen Sink Press was a comic book publishing company founded by Denis Kitchen in 1970. Kitchen Sink Press was a pioneering publisher of underground comics, and was also responsible for numerous republications of classic comic strips in hardcover and softcover volumes. One of their best-known products was the first full reprint of Will Eisner’s The Spirit—first in magazine format, then in standard comic book format. The company closed in 1999.

In 1969 Milwaukee artist Denis Kitchen decided to self-publish his comics and cartoons in the magazine Mom’s Homemade Comics, inspired in part by the seminal underground comix titles Bijou Funnies and Zap Comix. The selling out of the 4,000 print-run inspired him further, and in 1970 he founded Kitchen Sink Press (initially as an artists’ cooperative) and launched the Milwaukee-based underground newspaper The Bugle-American, with Jim Mitchell and others. Under the name of the Krupp Syndicate, he syndicated comic strips to almost fifty other underground and college newspapers.

In addition to Milwaukee artists like himself, Mitchell, Bruce Walthers, Don Glassford, and Wendel Pugh, Kitchen began to publish works by such cartoonists as Howard Cruse, Trina Robbins and S. Clay Wilson (as well as taking over the publishing duties of Bijou Funnies from 1970 to 1973), and he soon expanded his operations, launching Krupp Comic Works, a parent organization into which he placed ownership of Kitchen Sink Press and through which he also launched such diverse ventures as a record company and a commercial art studio.

Kitchen established a long-running relationship with Will Eisner beginning in 1973 with a two-issue series of Eisner’s classic comics series The Spirit. As a result of the success of Kitchen Sink Press’s underground reprints, Warren Publishing launched a regular Spirit reprint series in magazine format in 1974. After Warren’s magazine folded in 1976, Kitchen Sink picked it up in 1977, continuing with Warren’s numbering until issue #41 in 1983. Other notable Kitchen Sink titles from the 1970s include anthologies like the horror title Death Rattle vol. 1 (3 issues, launched in 1972), Bizarre Sex (10 issues, launched in 1972), Snarf (15 issues, launched Feb. 1972), and Dope Comix (5 issues, launched in 1978).

The publisher supplemented revenues with the sale of merchandise such as posters, buttons, trading cards, and sound records.
