The Comic Book Legal Defense Fund was founded in 1986 as a non-profit organization dedicated to the preservation of First Amendment rights for members of the comics community. You can click on the banner below to learn more about this great organization.
Artie Romero was one of the co-founders of Everyman Studios and during the mid-70s published dozens of mini comix. He also published a number of regular format comix such as Animal Bite Comix and Realm but is probably best known for his Cascade Comix Monthly, a monthly magazine which dealt exclusively with the underground comix scene. Artie is no longer in the comix publishing business but is involved in animation with his company ARG! Cartoon Animation Studio.
Sir Real is a collector’s collector. Collecting underground comix since the mid-70s, he has what has to be one of the largest collections of comix around. And he has a very nice website to showcase them all. He provides scans of each one as well as the artists involved, story titles, publisher, print runs, etc. If you are a collector of underground comix you owe it to yourself to check out his site.
UGCOMIX.INFO is a site run by Zonker Harris and is a great resource for collectors of underground comix. It is a graphical aid for authenticating the various printings of classic ’head’ comix of the 60s and 70s and is intended as a supplement to J. Kennedy’s 1982 guide with some important updates. If you have some underground comix but don’t know which printing they are this is the place to go.
Skip Williamson - It was Skip Williamson, along with Robert Crumb and Jay Lynch, who produced one of the earliest of the underground comix (The Bijou Funnies, 1968 - shortly after Zap # 1 was published). He has been producing his unique style of art ever since. You may have noticed that style on our home page - Skip did our logo.
