Dave Trampier was the author and illustrator of Wormy, a comic-strip that appeared in Dragon Magazine, in the late 1980’s.  The confusing, subtle and ambivalent tone of Trampier’s comics is preserved however in The Wormy Archive (warning, website may crumble), which contains most (though not all) of the installments of Wormy.  Disillusioned with his editors at Dragon, and disaffected from TSR, Trampier vanished from the public eye, and was rumored to have died, until (apparently) resurfacing as a taxi driver, amid the woods and party schools of Southern Illinois.  Trampier was also one of the primary illustrators of early Dungeons and Dragons materials.  If you think you haven’t seen his work, think again.
