Born to Be Wild

Evan Dorkin’s Born to Be Wild is a single-issue, self-contained comic from Eclipse Books (1991) that packs a chaotic, heartfelt punch. Known for his sharp, offbeat humor, Dorkin both writes and illustrates this story, which stands as a quirky, standalone snapshot of early-’90s alternative comics. Its lasting charm lies in its raw, personal energy—a brief, memorable burst from a creator whose work would go on to define cult-favorite series like Milk & Cheese and Hectic Planet.
