The wordless "Frank" by Jim Woodring is one of the first comics I ever read

The first comics I laid eyes on were Jim Woodring comics, because I could enjoy them at an age before I knew how to read.

Many of Woodring's comics lack text, and it's up to the reader to interpret Woodring's breath-taking illustrations in their own way.

I have such wonderful memories of reading Woodring's Frank stories in my bedroom at night when I was about three or four years old. Magical is the word that comes to mind. 


On the Cartoonist Kayfabe youtube channel, Ed and Jim show the pages of Frank and talk about this exceptional comic in this video: Weird Comics!  Frank, A Psychedelic Trip Thru Jim Woodring's Brain. Tune in to embark on the trippy journey of Frank.
