This is the last issue of Rory Hayes' underground horror comic. Another stellar cast of cartoonists contribute a conglomeration of single-pagers and stories. It's still paying homage to EC horror comics, albeit with a decidedly psychedelic overtone that includes the hard drug use that became quite prevalent in the Haight-Ashbury district and environs beginning in the 1970's.

Some dark stuff indeed. I've never run across this artist before, to my knowledge.
ReplyDeleteHayes certainly had his own style, but then again, all the underground cartoonists did too, and I can't think of one that was outright derivative of the other.
