This home-grown (so to speak) 28-pp half-legal digest consists of a hodge-podge of (mostly) reprints from various sources along with a couple of new items. The lay-out is rather more punk-influenced than hippie, in spite of the dedication to "the True Spirit of The Sixties as It Relates to the Present Era" (p 2). I'm assuming that editor HASH TABLOID is working under a pseudonym. Includes some interesting appropriated documents regarding the invention of the AIDS virus by the Department of Defense and tips from COINTELPRO on infiltrating The New Left. Anyway, the point is that it also includes:

This cool 1986 one-page cosmic comix story features a couple of characters that clearly resemble the later Crazy Men. In typical 1980s MICHAEL RODEN fashion, this wonderful strip suggests that "Before we are born we are only consciousness." I love this stuff!
