Zippy the Pinhead! I remember seeing that in the local Santa Cruz "Good Times" paper when I was a student at UCSC. Funny stuff. I remember it being more surreal than "offensive."
Quote - My thread drifted LOL. I still have some of these comics I bought in Amsterdam in the 70's.
All are very un-PC, seditious, and some would be completely illegal to sell these days. Zippy the Pinhead, Hog of Steal, Captain Piss-Gums and his Pervert Pirates and Angelfood McSpade would send today's publishers and their lawyers running for the hills. The seventies were an an amazing period of libertarianism sandwiched between pre and post periods of enforced morality. We won't see anything like those years again. But I wuz there, and amazingly still remember it.
