Fear and Laughter

A single, oversized issue from Kitchen Sink Press, Fear and Laughter (1977) collects the full, unexpurgated run of William Stout's "The Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers" strips, originally published in underground papers. Stout's clean, expressive linework and sharp satirical writing capture the tail end of the 1960s counterculture, offering a vivid, humor-infused snapshot of its characters' misadventures. It stands as a compact, self-contained artifact of the underground comix movement, showcasing a singular talent at the peak of his early career.
