Dope Rider

I originally set up this blog to showcase the old Dope Rider comic strips I occasionally did for High Times from the mid-1970s through the mid-1980s. With High Times' 40th anniversary issue in 2014, I restarted the strip and have been doing my best to get one done for each issue. A few months after they appear in the magazine, I will archive them here. Note: all images are copyrighted by Paul Kirchner.

If you'd like to purchase Dope Rider merchandise, visit my Dope Rider Store at CafePress.com and click on a design you like. Your patronage is most appreciated!

Review of My New Book, "Hieronymus & Bosch"

I have a new collection of cartoons out titled "Hieronymus & Bosch." This review, from The Comics Journal, explains it better than I could.

Dope Rider, "Drag Race"

I knew that sooner or later I'd have to do an homage to hot-rod cartoonist Ed "Big Daddy" Roth, one of the artistic influences of my childhood.

Dope Rider Album by Kurokuma

Joe E. Allen sent me the new album from his band, Kurokuma, which features a song based on the Dope Rider story "Geckos." Also the group's t-shirt, which I'm modeling.
