Babyfat

From 1978 onward, Clay Geerdes self-published Babyfat, a long-running alternative comic that blended autobiographical storytelling, underground comix sensibilities, and a distinctly personal, often whimsical take on everyday life. Spanning 39 issues, the series stands as a testament to independent comics' DIY ethos, with Geerdes as its sole creator and guiding voice. While never a mainstream hit, Babyfat endures as a quietly influential artifact of the post-underground era, showcasing the power of a singular vision sustained over decades.
