I’m Probably Going To Regret Asking This Question, But…



... Is there a non-stupid list of underground cartoonists out there? .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address)

If not, is it possible to make one without being bogged down into definitional battles and other things that make rational people want to stab their eyes out? It seems like if we admit that some people can belong to multiple groupings that this is slightly easier than trying to define the entirety of someone's creative output by one label. It also seems that we should have enough of a sense of alternative comics now as its own distinct body that we wouldn't get bogged down there. Maybe I'm dreaming.

So, to start, swiping from here and there:

Gary Arlington, Robert Armstrong, Edward Barker, Joel Beck, Vaughn Bode, Tim Boxell, Michele Brand, Roger Brand, Mary K. Brown, John Burnham, Leslie Cabarga, Lyn Chevely, Daniel Clyne, Ron Cobb, Guy Colwell, Richard Corben, Sally Cruikshank, Robert Crumb, Howard Cruse, Charles Dallas, Mal Dean, George DiCaprio, Kim Deitch, Simon Dietch, Don Dohler, Harry Driggs (aka R.
