About the series

From 1965 to 1969, Petersen Publishing’s Surftoons captured the sun-soaked, rebellious spirit of California beach culture in a 15-issue run of gag-filled comic strips and surf-themed humor. Anchored by the clean, dynamic art of Alex Toth and the steady writing and drawing of Bruce Steffenhagen, the series offered a lighthearted, period-perfect look at the surf scene before it fully entered the mainstream. It stands as a unique artifact of mid-1960s youth culture, blending Toth’s celebrated graphic precision with the niche appeal of a hobby that was just cresting in popularity.
