About this Collection

This collection brings together the complete run of the underground comix anthology Anarchy Comics, originally published by Last Gasp in the late 1980s. Featuring a mix of satirical and political stories, the volume includes appearances by Jesus and Mary Magdalene in irreverent contexts typical of the series' anti-authoritarian tone.

"Armageddon Outtahere!" from Anarchy Comics #4 (1987) is a sharp, darkly comedic take on paranoia and preparedness, following Tuttle and Bodkin as they retreat into a survivalist bunker convinced the apocalypse is imminent—only to emerge a decade later, just as the world truly begins to unravel. Written by Paul Mavrides and Jay Kinney, with both creators handling art and inks, the story blends absurdity with timely dread in a way that feels both uniquely of its time and startlingly relevant. The cover, by Paul Mavrides, captures the grim irony of their misguided retreat with a stark, unsettling image.
