Pinheads in America Sometimes the simplest pleasures are still the best pleasures...
I discovered the Dada genius of Bill Griffith's perrenial philosopher-savant more than 20 years ago, and I still giggle at it today.
If monkeys lost their tales, they'd call 'em Zippies!
Tails, dammit; TAILS...
Did this guy get to collect the royalties?
Dr. Zira : Damn if this doesn't freak me out. Check out that stylish sweater.
Nice catch, boo.
The history of that symbol is fascinating; I knew it was used as a symbol by many American Indians and by buddhists, but I hadn't realized it had Aztec connections. It got me Googling: a couple of interesting sites here and here (note the Jackie O. swastika moment).
i once appeared in zippy. bill griffith sent me a postcard ahead of time telling me when i'd be in. i have the card framed with the strip.
but i guess it'd be bragging to talk about it...
SD--
Please!!!
Spill the Beans!!!
I had no idea you were such a bon vivant, hanging out with

I've never been able to get into Zippy either. I've tried. The art style just doesn't hit my groove ceiling the right way or something. I dunno.
