Compost Comics

George Metzger's Compost Comics (1973–present) is a single-issue underground comix series published by the artist himself, blending ecological themes with the countercultural satire of the era. Though credited to a handful of contributors, Metzger served as both writer and artist for the majority of the run, crafting a singular, hand-drawn vision that reflects the DIY ethos of 1970s independent comics. Its lasting significance lies in its preservation of the raw, unpolished spirit of the underground comix movement, offering a time capsule of the period's artistic and environmental concerns.
