Pulque

Pulque made their entrance in the pages of Buzz #1 in 1990, born from the singular imagination of Richard Sala at Fantagraphics — the indie publisher synonymous with alternative comics at their most daring and distinctive. A creature of the Copper/Modern Age underground, Pulque inhabits a wonderfully strange corner of the Fantagraphics universe, sharing pages with the likes of Big Egypt Parlor Sphinx, Frank, and Big Red across titles including Jim and The Book of Jim. Rare and intriguing with only a handful of catalog appearances, Pulque is exactly the kind of offbeat discovery that makes digging through alternative comics from this era so rewarding.
