Dopin' Dan

Dopin' Dan is a Bronze Age underground comics creation who burst onto the counterculture scene in 1972, brought to life by cartoonist Willy Murphy for Apex Novelties — the scrappy indie publisher that helped define the underground comix movement. With a catalog presence spanning into the mid-1970s and appearances across Left-Field Funnies, Rip Off Comix, and The Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers, Dan ran in some seriously groovy company, sharing pages with beloved underground icons like Fat Freddy Freekowtski and Freewheelin' Franklin Freek. He's a niche find with only a handful of catalogued appearances, making him exactly the kind of offbeat discovery that serious underground comix collectors live for.
