 I have all the underground 'Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers' comics from Rip-Off Press.  Definitely not something you want your kids reading, but these were hilarious back when I was a teen.  R.Crumb was also a bit hit for me back in the `70's.  I never knew about the age thing, as these were given to me by the neighbor as he was finished with them.

WL,
      Yeah, i'm a big fan of the underground comics myself...i recently located my old stash of them tucked away [from the prying eyes of my kids while growing up] in my attic. I brought 'em all down and bagged 'em, giving them the respect they deserve. R Crumb has always been high on my list of Faves along w/ Gilbert Shelton, S. Clay Wilson and Rick Griffin. I used to get'em from Krupp's Mail order back in the day. All wonderfully depraved stuff! Who can forget Tommy Toilet [still have that poster] Wildman Sam, Mr, Natural, etc... I was delighted to find ALL my Zap comics in the stack, in decent shape and even the forbidden 3 issues of Snatch...better stop here don't wanna get banned! Keep the Underground flame burning, my friend!

If you have 1st or even 2nd prints of these check out the Overstreet Guide. I think you'd be surprised what some of these are worth. Wish I have kept mine. The only original I left is Binky Brown meets the "burjin" Mary. ;)

 I used to love reading Crumb's comics.  The only underground stuff I still own, are The Freak Brothers comics.

mostly the 1950s horror/science fictions ones, such as tales from the crypt, vault of horror, haunt of fear, detective comics (the ones other than batman), etc
I love to listen to cool jazz on a rainy night in 1947 Los Angeles --

The Fox and the Crow is one of my very favourite titles:


 

 

 
It's a brutally difficult title to find in high grade though.

  Groovy stuff missdead13.  I love Jonny THM, especially the stories with Squee in them.  Also a huge Lenore fan.  Just wish my Lenore stuffed doll would stay where I put it, things always moving.
