THE GONE&FORGOTTEN ADVENT(ure) CALENDAR: DAY FOURTEEN


The Further Fattening Adventures of Pudge, Girl Blimp
Lee Marrs' charming, dirty and frenetic underground comic doesn't receive the admiration, affection and accolades afforded the works of many of her male contemporaries, which is a stone-cold tragedy. Pudge's attempts to squeeze into the free-love, freewheeling scene of San Francisco's Free Love Generation paint one of the most gloriously satirical pictures of the era.
