Subvert Comics

    (Rip Off, 1970, 1972, 1976)

Spain Rodriguez moved to the Big Apple in early 1967, when he began producing weekly comic strips for the East Village Other (EVO) ...in 1968 he created Harry Barnes, a.k.a. Trashman, who became Rodriguez's most popular and well-recognized character. Trashman is a cocksure, well-armed underground comic superhero clad in black leather with a black beard and thick black hair ... Most of the Trashman stories from EVO were first compiled in The Collected Trashman in 1969, and after Rodriguez moved to San Francisco at the end of that year, Trashman starred in 88 pages of hyper-violent adventures in three issues of Subvert Comics.
