TWIST No. 3 (1988).

This promising but short-lived underground comix anthology, edited by artist J. D. King, featured star-studded line-ups of both established and leading alternative cartoonists. But this 3rd issue was its last. Cover by King. Contributors: MAD-creator Harvey Kurtzman and America's foremost caricaturist David Levine ("The Return of 'A Christmas Carol'"); a Homunculus strip by Robert Crumb; "Freddy Brown, the Squirt," an early strip by Dan (Ghost World) Clowes; "Birthday Party" by Richard Sala; "Bosko Meets the Space Aliens" by John (Punk Magazine) Holmstrom; "The Davy Crockett Story" by Josh Gosfield; "Cold War" by R. O. Blechman; Beatniks U.S.A." by King; and "Twist List" by David Coulson. A comic book w-a-a-a-y ahead of its time!
