An other third of the book is a miscellaneous collection of comics whose stories range from the loony (the sextraterrestrial invasion of Earth in “They Came from Uranus”) to the satirical (“Critical mass of cool”) and the outright subversive (if you ever wondered what games toys play at night, read “Dolls at Midnight”).

Dope Rider: A Fistful of Delirium is an enticing doorway into the spellbinding unreality of Paul Kirchner.» The collection ends with a nice long essay (including numerous photographs, strips, and illustrations) by Kirchner called “Sex, Drugs & Public Transportation: My Strange Trip Through Comics.” I haven’t gotten to it yet because I’m trying to restrain myself from gobbling the collection up all at once. Kirchner's power to evoke surrealist fantasy evinces throughout the miscellaneous comics collected in Collapse. Standouts include "Hive", a riff on Fritz Lang's Metropolis, and "Tarot", which plays out as a duel between a knight and a wizard (both strips were published originally in Heavy Metal).

In "Highwire", the opening entry in Paul Kirchner's new collection Awaiting the Collapse, a tightrope walker navigates the skyway of a busy metropolis. The walker's magical high wire takes him over skyscrapers and into offices, dinner parties, supermarkets, and the homes of the gray citizens who, for panel after panel, fail to look up and see the miracle above them. In the comic's final panels, however, a man gazes up at the high-wire walker in a moment of recognition. The magazine’s baked readers became big fans of the brilliantly illustrated and psychedelic comic featuring a skeleton cowboy known as the “Lone Stoner” who prowled the prairies of the American Southwest. Along the way, the cowpoke encountered bizarre characters, outlandish landscapes, and some badass weed! The Big Book of Losers: Pathetic but True Tales of the World's Most Titanic Failures (DC Comics, 1997) In 2002, Kirchner returned to freelance illustration, working primarily in advertising.
