Last Gasp Comix and Stories #3

Last Gasp Comix and Stories #3 brings together adult underground humor and genuinely strange imagery in Eric White's cover, which depicts a pale, bespectacled figure wielding scissors over an open cavity of wriggling, fleshy innards, flanked by a wide-eyed green creature on one side and a purple dog-like figure bearing a cross on the other. The whole scene has that gleefully unsettling quality that made Last Gasp a home for work that pushed well past the edges of polite comics. Inside, Mats Stromberg handles the full creative load — writing, drawing, inking, and lettering "Better Laid Than Never" — making this a focused, singular vision from a committed solo voice.
