Bezango WA 985 #6












1st ed., September 1, 2002, 40 copies, blue cover.

Print-on-demand for a short period starting November 16, 2002.

1st Danger Room Reprint Ed., June 2005. 5 copies (1 red, 1 blue, 1 green, 1 yellow, 1 pink).

The "It's the Arts" themed issue.

Trivia. Page 4: Based on a real performer I witnessed at The Evergreen State College open mic night in the student center in the 1970s. Page 6: Those twin WPPSS towers are still standing today. Incredible. Page 9: Homer T. Bone was a real person, another colorful character who represented Washington State in that other Washington. Page 13: McCleary has had several newspapers in the history of the town. One of them was called, and I'm not kidding, The McCleary Stimulater. And the Capitol Theater in Olympia was the inspiration for this character. The place that is now the home of the Olympia Film Society (and where Peter Bagge and I held a panel discussion last summer) really did have a little plywood guy like the one described here. Page 14: Both of the real life examples of bulldozer art referenced here appear to be gone now.
