Funny Aminals

From 1972, Justin Green’s Funny Aminals (Apex Novelties) launched as a single, self-contained comic that stands as a landmark of underground comix. Green, both writer and artist, turns a sharp, satirical eye on human foibles through a menagerie of anthropomorphic creatures, blending bawdy humor with a raw, confessional edge. This one-shot is a key artifact of the early ’70s alternative-comics scene, showcasing Green’s singular voice before his celebrated work on Binky Brown Meets the Holy Virgin Mary.
