BASIL'S BARFLYZE

Usually characterized as an underground comic, cartoonist and humorist Basil Wolverton's COMMON TYPES OF BARFLYZE (Wolverton Enterprises, 1974) was a digest-sized one-shot with 36 pages of the grotesque, outrageous and delightfully imaginative characters that Wolverton was noted for. Drawn with India ink on 9.75" x 13.75" Bristol board, the comic sold for $2.00. The book is introduced by one, Dr. Robert Slobbert -- in all likelihood, Wolverton himself.

BONUS! This piece of original art from the BARFLYZE book was auctioned off in 2021 for an amazing $31,200.00! Observe the meticulous cross-hatching.
