Mickey Rat

Robert Armstrong’s Mickey Rat is a gleefully subversive, underground comix parody of the Disney mouse, launched by Kitchen Sink Press in 1972. Over a single landmark issue, Armstrong’s scruffy, irreverent rodent skewered corporate sanitization with raw, satirical energy. It stands as a cult touchstone of the early ’70s comix scene, capturing the era’s anti-authoritarian spirit through Armstrong’s distinctive, scrappy art and writing.
