This comes from the personal collection of Peter Bagge..former editor at Fantagraphics Books and Weirdo Magazine, also the creator of “Hate” and “Near Stuff”. A few years back I obtained a large lot of books that were formerly his and this guy was in one of the boxes. A bunch of them were clearly artist submissions while he was run things at Weirdo then FB (as some came with little notes and original sketches). This one would have been from the Fantagraphics era..
