Oh That Monroe: The Complete Adventures of Monroe Simmons

From 1995 onward, Wow Cool published this single-issue gem by Sam Henderson, collecting the absurdist, deadpan misadventures of Monroe Simmons. Henderson’s signature blend of crude cartooning and surreal humor defines this offbeat series, which stands as a cult highlight of 1990s alternative comics. It matters as a showcase for Henderson’s distinctive voice—a love-it-or-hate-it mix of non-sequiturs and satirical bite that helped define the DIY small-press era.
