Eclipse, the Magazine 1981 #7 - back issue - $7.00
A pun on the word "auto," as this story tracks an anonymous man's life via his various forms of wheeled transport, from a stroller, to a scooter, to a bicycle, to succeeding models of cars, and finally to a wheelchair. At the same time ? in a presumed homage to R. Crumb's famous story, "A Short History of America," the background building of each panel evolves as well, from a Safeway store to a movie theater playing the various big films of the era, and finally to a porn theatre and then a decrepit abandoned building.
Short biographical paragraphs on the creators in this issue.
