Fun With Reid Fleming: World's Toughest Milkman

Reid Fleming lurked in my sketchbook for nine months before first seeing the light of day in Vancouver's underground newspaper Georgia Straight (no. 550, June 9, 1978). Though initially intended to be a one-shot replacement for my regular weekly strip (Heart Break Comics), the public had other ideas, and Reid's non-stop quest for fun graced the Straight for another 6 months, the first comic book published by the author, followed in October 1980 (Strips originally done for the Straight occupy pp. 12-20.) Starting in 1986, the 132 page Rogue to Riches was serialized in five parts by Eclipse Comics of California. And that's what you have in your hands: The first (and only) six Reid Flemming Comics. --- excerpt from Author's Note
