Red Raider

Jaxon’s Red Raider is a single-issue comic published by Last Gasp in 1977, a raw and politically charged artifact of the underground comix era. Written and drawn entirely by Jaxon, it stands as a stark, unflinching exploration of Native American history and resistance, told through the lens of a fictional warrior. This series matters for its unapologetic, creator-driven voice—a potent example of how the underground scene could tackle serious historical and social themes with brutal honesty and artistic freedom.
