Picking up where Zap stopped, Weirdo, under three different editors, defined a new aesthetic for the '80s, opening the way for a whole new comics literacy for a new generation of readers. R. Crumb, P. Bagge and Aline Kominsky edited three phases of Weirdo, respectively the "Personal Confessions", The "Coming of the Bad Boys", the "Twisted Sisters". Each phase produced a crop of new cartoonists. Issue 8 features the works of Peter Bagge, Tony Bertino, Jeff John, Maceda, Dori Seda, Gary Panter, R. Crumb, Depressed Dora, and Robt. Armstrong. Special Feature: "Pee Dawg Pulls A Train" by The Shit Generation AKA Eddie Nukez & Jocko 'Levant' Braniac 5.
