The Man (Print Mint)

    (Print Mint, 1966, 1972, 1975)

"... installments of The Man ran periodically in the [Syracuse University] campus newspaper, The Daily Orange. After completing its run in February, 1966, the university's Office of Student Publications compiled the strips into a book (with close to 2,000 copies) that was sold on and off campus. It was one of the first commercially produced underground comics. In 1972, The Print Mint produced a second edition of the book and printed 20,000 comic books, followed by another 10,000 copies three years later ... The Man reads like a parable about the elusive meaning of humanity and the power of human relationships. Not just our relationships with each other, but those we hold with any entity that we deem meaningful to us. Man may not be a character we can relate to on an intellectual level, but he is one we can identify with because his humanity is so sincere and transparent."--comixjoint.com/man-2nd.html
