Publisher's Synopsis

Black and white jumbo-sized comic from the legendary cartoonist Justin Green.

The oversize pages allow the reader to fully appreciate Green's artwork.

Includes stories with Binky Brown and Rowdy Noody, as well as the baseball classic "Right Field" (Read it and weep).

The center spread is the masterpiece 'The Gates of Purgatory.'

Also printed in large format is the complete five-part serial of "We Fellow Traveleers" where Justin and his brother and alter-ego Babyface find themselves trapped in the Saw-Church of Profanity.

Originally published in 1976, this underground classic is now available!


"a star of underground comics in the 1970s who channeled his Catholic guilt and childhood neuroses into "Binky Brown Meets the Holy Virgin Mary," a raw and intimate confessional epic that inspired cartoonists like Art Spiegelman to explore autobiographical subjects" -- The New York Times
