Last Gasp

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Last Gasp is a comics and book publisher and distributor based in San Francisco, California. Founded in 1970 by Ron Turner to publish the ecologically-themed comics magazine Slow Death Funnies, followed by the all-female anthology It Ain't Me Babe, Last Gasp soon became a major part of the underground comics movement. Notable artists published by Last Gasp include Mark Ryden, Ron English, Camille Rose Garcia, Tim Biskup, Justin Green, Bill Griffith, Dori Seda, Robert Williams, Robert Crumb, and S. Clay Wilson. Though still publishing comics, Last Gasp today operates mainly as a publisher and distributor for books of all types, with an art and counterculture focus.
