After issue #1 other artists were included, including this third issue, with Jack "Jaxon" Jackson on the cover, and interior art by no less than Simon Deitch, Jay Lynch, Greg Irons, Jeff Hayes (Rory's brother?), Spain, S. Clay Wilson and Rick Griffin. The stories are still loosely based on the EC tradition, but like most spins on those comics by the top underground artists, they have their own distinct style.
Thanks to Sir Real's Underground Comix Classix, who did the scanning and posted this comic online.

HGE: I loved the Rag, truly in the EC tradition. The art is so damn terrifying. I loved to death the panel with the mad teddy bear scientist calling down from the high rocks at the other swamp teddies, calling them fatuos fools while the mutant, giant rag grins horribly behind him. Of the bunch, I found Swamp Girl the most frightening. Look at that face and it is easy to imagine her turning on you suddenly. What a great comic. Thanks for posting. -- Mykal
