Spaced

Jim Pinkoski’s three-issue series for the underground press Comics and Comix takes a lo-fi, DIY approach to cosmic satire, blending deadpan humor with crude, expressive artwork. Published in the mid-1970s, it captures the era’s countercultural fascination with space exploration while grounding its absurdity in everyday human foibles. Pinkoski, the sole writer and artist, gives the series a singular, offbeat voice that stands out in the small-press landscape of the time.
