Vaughn Bode Diary Sketchbook Set - Books 1-3

Three Mint volumes from 1990-1991. The complete run. Vaughn Bode sketches, taken from his diaries of August-December 1965. From the publisher: Ask any cartoonist: invention comes hard. But, not, apparently, for Vaughn Bode, the inimitably gifted creator of Cheech Wizard, from whom characters, concepts, and stories pinwheeled at a prodigious rate. Vaughn Bode's recently discovered diaries, kept from 1963 to 1973, offer even more persuasive evidence of the wild profligacy of his wealth. Reprinted in a facsimile format, this series offers a wealth of finished cartoons , illustrations, and strips, as well as tantalizing glimpses of Bode classics yet to come, such as "The Man". For any fan of Bode's, these Diary Sketchbooks offer a treasury of visual wit and humor, one last journey through the imagination of one of comic's original practitioners.
