Odd Bodkins by Dan O'Neill
Posted by maggie

Dan O'Neill (1942-) is a talented underground comix creator about whom the Lambiek.net site says he "began his career in 1967 with a strip called Odd Bodkins." Well, far's I can tell, this sampling was first published in 1964 -- and he'd been active in comix prior to that. Just saying.

He drew national attention when the Disney organization stomped him for his Air Pirates comix material dealing with its characters, but comix buffs had been following his work for some time. He has his own website and sells rarities there. Lambiek also says, "O'Neill has largely remained inactive in the field of comix since [1979]." As you'll see on his website, you'll find he has continued to produce distinctive cartoons.
