Insect Fear

A three-issue series from The Print Mint Inc., Insect Fear (1970–1973) captures the raw, underground comix energy of the era, with Spain Rodriguez and Roger Brand as its primary creative forces. Blending visceral, often grotesque black-and-white art with a satirical, countercultural edge, the series explores themes of paranoia, societal decay, and the monstrous—both literal and metaphorical. It stands as a potent artifact of the early '70s comix movement, showcasing two of its most distinctive talents at the height of their unfiltered, DIY expression.
