Deitch's Pictorama

Kim Deitch's ongoing Fantagraphics series Deitch's Pictorama launched in 2008, offering a single-issue showcase of the cartoonist's singular, psychedelic storytelling and intricate, vintage-inspired artwork. Known for his sprawling, often autobiographical narratives and a cast of recurring characters like the feline Waldo, Deitch here presents a dense, surreal comic that blends mid-century Americana with his own idiosyncratic mythology. Though the series has only a single issue to date, it stands as a concentrated example of Deitch's one-of-a-kind vision, a cult favorite among fans of alternative and underground comix.
