Warning messages, hysterical laughter, the cawing of crows and buzzards.

His Frankenstein was serious, then comical, then scary.

Gary Panter vs. DIVE MASK

The Queen of the Beatniks produced a psych masterpiece in 1969.

Grotesque distorted candy-color figures twist and writhe.

She produces all- encompassing psychic dot events.

He consumed humanity and spit out a mirror.

Masterpieces of graphic provocation and subversion.

A politicized Pop Art inspiration.

Everyone sprouts big square teeth when they’re angry!

Obscene, slander­ous, jaw-dropping satirical pic­torial indict­ments

Shockingly vital and hysterical, yet serenely stoic
