Now for something different update

Post by JWR »

Well it has been a while since I have updated with any pieces of comic art and several years since I have found a piece of Underground comic art.

The one piece I have updated is a piece drawn by the late Vaughn Bode for a monthly comic strip Cheech Wizard for National Lampoon magazine.
Cheech Wizard was Vaughn's most famous work and a lot of the character designs he came up with were "borrowed" by Ralph Bakshi for his film Wizards.

Cheech Wizard is not for everyone since like a lot of the underground stuff it is based in the time of the drug culture and sex coming out of the 60's.

This strip from 1972 is a "1st draft" drawn on the 6 panels that are the same size as published so he could space out the characters as well as see how much room it will take in the dialogue boxes.
