Cheech Wizard

A two-issue series from Fantagraphics, Cheech Wizard collects the early, anarchic work of Vaughn Bodé, centered on his signature character: a lecherous, hat-wearing lizard wizard. Originally appearing in underground comix and magazines, this 1990–1991 collection showcases Bodé’s raw, expressive linework and irreverent humor. It remains a key document of a singular cartoonist’s voice, capturing the chaotic energy of 1970s counterculture filtered through a fantastical, rule-breaking lens.
