RAP SHEET is The Official Newsletter of the Small Press Syndicate (SPS) and, starting with this issue, includes contributions by MICHAEL RODEN:

page 2    Crazy Man Comics

This wonderful full-page drawing depicts a goofy long-necked Crazy Man in an easy chair. Note the delightfully wacky party-atmosphere sky and the flower-power upholstery on the chair. Lots of detail and loads of fun in this drawing!

page 24    untitled drawing

This is a cool little drawing (from 1990) of a striped Crazy Man-snake with a little house in the background. Where do these wacky images come from anyway? Serves here as an illustration for R.U.O.K. by ROBERT UPTON.

page 31    untitled drawing

This small drawing (also dated 1990) serves as an illustration for Report from SPACE by LARNED JUSTIN. This is an intriguingly odd little drawing that includes a checkerboard floor, a set of stairs to somewhere, and an alien with a triangular head.

This issue also includes a cool one-pager by THOMAS SCIOLINO (I joined the Young Republicans to expose them!) (page 55) and tons of other fun stuff.

Resource Note:
Thanks to JACK BERTRAM for sending me a copy of this wonderful zine.
