JIM OSBORNE BLACK PRINCE OF UNDERGROUND SC #1

While many cartoonists in the late '60s and early '70s were 'turning on, tuning in, and dropping out,' Jim Osborne was cut from a much darker cloth, delving into the extreme underbelly of American popular culture with unsettling comics about murder, conspiracy, and demons, both figurative and literal. Jim Osborne: The Black Prince of the Underground includes a biography of Osborne by Dennis Dread and collects all of the artist's stories and illustrations from formative publications like Yellow Dog, Bijou Funnies, and National Lampoon, many republished here for the first time in decades.
