Jeff Tamarkin & David Schreiner. An excellent review/synopsis by Steve Krupp's Gallery & Curio Shoppe. A serious deadhead's dream! Jerry Garcia signed this deluxe limited edition collection of Grateful Dead Comix, published in 1992 by Kitchen Sink Press longtime underground comix publishers of R. Crumb and countless other alternative cartoonists. This hardcover book features a beautiful silver embossed deadhead skull (with a pen and brush forming the crossbones) in the center of the cover. This "bas relief" art was created by Peter (Superman, Batman) Poplaski for this limited edition and it appears nowhere else.

The gorgeous book is housed in a heavy duty slipcase which includes a 2-dimensional (embossed) silver foil version of the same skull art. The contents (all in full color) include comix based on Grateful Dead songs, behind-the-scenes accounts about the band, such as "The Lille Story" and artist's personal accounts. The comix are drawn by top artists like Tim Truman, Rand (Harold Hedd) Holmes, Terry (Cud) LaBan, Nina Paley, Wayno (Beer Nuts), Dan (Dope Comix) Steffan, Dean (Death Rattle) Armstrong, Reed Waller & Kate Worley (Omaha), Dan (Kings in Disguise) Burr, Mary (Twisted Sisters) Fleener and several others.

Jerry Garcia also wrote the introduction, talking about how much he loved comic books the first expensive investment he made when the band first became successful was a complete set of 1950's E.
