The Hembeck File [Hembeck Series]

A slim, one-issue series from FantaCo Enterprises, The Hembeck File collects the early comic strip work of Fred Hembeck, the cartoonist known for his iconic, rubbery style and self-aware humor about the comics industry. Published in 1981, this single volume serves as an archival introduction to Hembeck's distinctive voice and his ongoing series of gag strips, offering a snapshot of his early career in a format that would influence his later, more widely distributed work.
