Review:
Thoroughly estimable and highly recommended.--Bob Levin
...[F]or those readers with sufficiently girded loins, Wilson's art -- and renegade life-story -- will prove a source of unhealthy, vital fascination.--Sean Rogers
Do you remember the first time you saw an S. Clay Wilson panel? It was almost as powerful as your first blowjob. ... S. Clay Wilson was just beautiful filth -- just mind-blowing.--Marc Maron
Pirates in the Heartland: The Mythology of S. Clay Wilson Vol. 1 surveys the early, graphically fecund years of the most outrageous of the original cadre of underground cartoonists. Wilson... turned his id inside out and vomited forth exquisitely crosshatched panels... The best drawings coalesce into orgies of entwined, bulging, wriggling lines -- the grotesque tickling the sublime.--R.C. Baker
