Happy birthday to the legendary S. Clay Wilson! Your drawings have turned conventional storytelling upside-down and drawn a rebel yell loud enough for generations to hear—or, more fittingly, see. Zap Comix wouldn't be half as gloriously weird without your wildly bizarre characters and fearless inking style making readers laugh (and maybe blush just a little), page after audacious page.Whether it's illustrating mind-bending novels like "Cities of The Red Night" or William Burroughs' daring classic "The Wild Boys," your art truly troubleshoot our boredom with its ink-stained humor and gritty charm. Here's hoping you celebrate another lap around this surreal planet we call home—preferably without summoning any illustrated chaos into reality!
