Amy and Jordan At Beach Lake

Amy and Jordan At Beach Lake, a single-issue comic from 1980 by Mark Beyer, introduces readers to the artist’s signature raw, minimalist style and deadpan absurdity. The story follows its titular characters through surreal, often unsettling adventures at a lakeside setting, blending childlike drawing with darkly humorous existential dread. Though brief, this debut issue established Beyer’s distinctive voice in underground comix, foreshadowing his later cult-favorite work in RAW and other alternative venues.
