But the publication was troubled from the beginning, as Leggieri provided weak leadership and Fabricant was universally dismissed as a blowhard by the contributors. It also didn’t help that San Francisco became the mecca for underground comic creators. At the beginning of 1969, the underground movement was just gathering steam, but by the end of the year it had taken on a robust life of its own, and that life was based in San Francisco. Virtually every important creator wanted to be part of it, and those who lived in New York began a mass migration to the Pacific Coast.
