    I have to say I would like it more if I could understand it.

    Is it just a coincidence that it wasn’t until 1914 that the U.S. began to seriously regulate the use of opium?

    Oh, I get it. The text refers to the pictures that appeared three weeks earlier, except for panel 4, which is presented upside-down and backwards to add poignancy and depth. Through this technique, formality is severely lampooned while the bank account is unaccountably enhanced.

    Clearly drawn for black and white print. I like the textures he uses.

    Reminded a little of the 70s surrealistic strip from England, “Wokker.”
