Comics Should Be Weird

From GRIPS #1 (Silverwolf Comics). 1986.

RAZOR 0 (London Night Studio) 1991. Everette Hartsoe story and art.

As a supplement to the Gus Ricca covers posted earlier, a completely mad Gus Ricca page from RED SEAL COMICS 16 (1946).

An earlier panel from this story was used in Fredric Wertham's anti-comics tract, SEDUCTION OF THE INNOCENT:

Gus Ricca DYNAMIC COMICS covers. (Chesler Comics) 1944-1946.

THEY WERE CHOSEN TO BE SURVIVORS 1-4 (Spectrum Comic Books. 1983.

Spectrum seemed to be a publisher designed to give writer/artist Steve Woron a place to showcase his creations. His sci-fi superhero saga SURVIVORS ran for four issues here, and would pop up here and there over the next few years at a variety of publishers.

Sam Springer covers from MONKEYSHINES COMICS (Ace Magazines), 1944-1946.

Springer's covers presented a strange, slanted perspective, featuring convoluted gags that generally made no sense at all.
