Wally Wood’s Weird Sex-Fantasy
Tim Pilcher has a dirty mind!
That’s what some people think, no doubt. He did just publish the second edition Erotic Comics: A Graphic History and it is filled with cartoon images of men, women, aliens and even a cat dancer engaged in all manner of physical intimacies.
(If you have sensitive ears or are under the age of 18, please stop here. You might be offended by some of the content of this interview.)
Volume 2 picks up where Volume 1 left off and examines how the form has become an international publishing phenomenon by showcasing artwork that has inflamed desires, incensed censors, and caused controversy.
TIM PILCHER audio excerpt: “The history of censorship of comics runs hand-in-hand with the history of erotic comics. The two are so intimately tied, for so many reasons… Governments have really tried to suppress or stop certain materials from being sold or marketed to the general public.”
