Rip Off Press 1978
Funny stuff from Ted Richards, who left cartooning in 1981 to pursue a creative career in technology (he worked for Atari), computers and eventually web design. Richards has a web site that promotes his web development and commercial design services. Richards is still known to tinker with cartooning and sells CDs of his Forty Year Old Hippie and Mellow Cat comics on his site.
