PAGFEEK
PAPERS by Mark Morrison (1973).
Pagfeek
was a quirky underground comic. It wasn't about sex or drugs
or violence or social relevance. It was a thinking hippie's comic,
full of clever if obscure wordplay and subtlety. Not surprisingly,
one of its earliest endorsements came frolm Art Spiegelman
(eons before Maus).
The main character, mustachioed Great
Uncle P. Bosco Wad ("Doc"), is the primary
character,whose speech (we always imagined) was delivered with
the rhythm and cadence of W. C. Fields. He often speaks
to a small frog and scene stealer named Hank.
Creator Mark Morrison's strength
is in his deft scripting and character development. His art is
on the crude side in this first published effort, and though
it gets much better in subsequent "Pagfeek" stories
(such as in Snarf #4), he never again had a solo book.
Thirty-five of 36 total pages are by
Morrison, who remains a bit of a mystery player in the underground
pantheon. Published by Kitchen Sink Press.
First (and
only) printing. January 1973. NM/Mint. $12
