And for those who don't know what "felch" means, DON'T look it up. You will not want to know.

Interesting derail (sounds like this ride is due for a derailment, anyway):

The term "Felch" was made up by a bunch of cartoonists - the crew of Zap! Comics - the idea was to make up a ridiculous sex act and include it in every story of a special issue a comic. Since the 1975 printing of the comic, the act has actually become a true fetish. Robert Crumb, Robert Williams, S Clay Wilson et al... you should be proud.

No.way.


Surely, people (and by people, I mean deranged, perverted homos) were doing that long before it was dubbed by the comicbook dudes.

No, I wasn't. Not before then.

So anyway, I went off searching to find proof that the story of Felch Cumics that I just shared with you was true. Turns out, I was wrong. The story is still great, though, as is the comic. Here's the true story, as told by Robert Williams:

OK, since we didn’t get in any trouble with Snatch and Jiz, and a couple of these other comics, I was partying one night with Crumb, Wilson and these other guys. And Wilson mentioned to me, he says, "I was talking to Ken Weaver and he had this real interesting word." I said what, "what it?" A word called "felch." I said, "what does that mean?" He said, "it is a real old term and it means orally withdrawing semen from someone’s lower digestive track after having anal sex." I said, "there’s a word for something like that?" That’s incredible that not only is there a word like that, but it has a provenance. Hell yeah, we’re going to do a felch comic. So I talked to Crumb, "yeah we’re going to do a felch comic."

So this was the splash panel to my comic, The Nectar of Satan, about felching. Now the comic went out for quite a while, and what would happen was the little dirty comic would, if there was no trouble, tend to sell with the big comics, the big underground comics. George DiCaprio, Leonardo DiCaprio’s father, was the distributor for underground comics in Los Angeles. And he said he got a call from one of his head shops that had been busted for their comics. So he had to go down with a lawyer with the owner of the head shop to the court down to see the DA and discuss this thing. Apparently what happened was the cops went around and put all the comics in a box. The DA went through the box looking for something to be really hard evidence and they find that Felch. See? So they were going to base the case on that Felch. Well, I would speculate that with the box was sitting around the police station for a while, and someone dug through that box, and one of the police found that Felch and lifted it. Because the next day when they were down there, DiCaprio and the headshop owner and the clerk were sitting outside the judge’s antechamber, and they heard the judge and the DA in there yelling, “Where’s the felch, where’s the felch?” Well they couldn’t find the Felch, so the case was dropped. And there has never been a case against underground comics because there was no test case.

If you want to read the comic, PM me... I think I know where there's a file you can read on your computer...
