Itchy Planet

Larry Gonick and Steve Lafler trade off writing and drawing duties in this three-issue Fantagraphics series from 1988. Itchy Planet is a short-lived but characteristically offbeat anthology, blending Gonick's historical wit with Lafler's underground-comics energy. It stands as a curious artifact of the late-'80s alternative-comics scene, showcasing two distinct cartooning voices in a single, compact run.
