In "Ginny Sweethips' Flying Circus," a rogue accountant droid, a sharp-tongued opossum, and a woman with a knack for chaos navigate the crumbling remnants of society—selling tacos, sex, and risky drugs to stay alive in a world gone mad. Written by an unknown hand and illustrated by an unknown artist, this 18-page tale from ORBiT #1 (1990) blends surreal humor and gritty survival with a cast as unpredictable as the apocalypse itself.
