This is from THE BEST OF Fearless, Fighting, Foulmouthed WONDER WART-HOG, drawn by Gilbert Shelton and written by Bill Killeen. I indentify with the art of WWH some, because it is close to the style of comics I drew in high school* - the syle is raw. This is a two part story, WONDER WART-HOG MEETS THE MOB which is continued - each is 4 pages. Gilbert Shelton, from Texas, first contributed his Wonder Wart Hog to HELP Magazine and THE REALIST. Later he collaborated with Skip Williamson, Robert Crumb and others to make UNDERGROUND COMIX. By this time he has taken his art to a new level (like high, man) making the art more elaborate with his THE FURY FABULOUS FREAK BROTHERS. So, anyway, back to our story today: Take it away Philbert!
*my audidence were two, maybe three people. The only surviving person still reads CHICKEN-FAT. In fact, that is just about the count of CF's readers.
