Publisher's Synopsis
Fifty years ago, underground cartoonists Gilbert Shelton (ZAP Comix, The Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers) and Ted Richards (Air Pirates, The Forty Year Old Hippie) combined their talents to create a more-or-less accurate summary of the founding of the United States of America as it was never taught in school! With Shelton's degree in history, Richards' experience as an army brat turned Air Force enlistee, and their combined skills at both slapstick and satire, they crafted "A Revised History Of The American Revolution," combining high strategic points with the perspective of regular grunts and citizens.
Give Me Liberty! was originally serialized in alternative newspapers through 1975-76 and now, for only the second time in 250 years, Fantagraphics Underground brings this lost classic back to print. Printed at close to original tabloid size and packed with a wealth of incredibly rare additional material, this is an early contender for best archival comics release of 2025.
