Psychotic Adventures
Last Gasp (1972-74))
Psychotic Adventures Illustrated is the creepy yet beautiful creation of Charles Dallas, one of the true enigmas from the golden age of underground comix. Psychotic ran for just three issues, but they are filled with extended, nightmarish comic stories that Dallas specialized in so well. Dallas had multiple appearances in other titles, including Insect Fear, Paranoia, Skull Comics, Slow Death and Real Pulp Comics, but Psychotic was almost entirely his (Larry Todd produced one story for the third issue) and some of his best work can be found here. Then again, Dallas didn’t produce any work that really sucked, so you can’t go wrong seeking out anything he did.
