Are We Having Fun Yet?

    (Fantagraphics, 1993)
™ and © 1993 Bill Griffith

One of the various compilations of strips featuring Bill Griffith’s highly popular but equally bizarre Zippy the Pinhead comic strip that has appeared in both underground and above ground sources. Zippy was based on a circus freak from long ago named Zip with some modifications, none of which were his mental capacity. Zippy has adventures with such characters as the angry Mr. Toad, occasional wife Zerbina, and Griffy himself. Some strips are hysterically funny while others are similarly confusing. His website has information on how to understand Zippy for the confused.
