In 1982, America’s Pac-Man Fever was at a fever-pitch with no cure in sight. The pandemic was spread by Ohio-borne songwriters Jerry Buckner and Gary Garcia when they wrote the aptly named Pac-Man Fever, which went on to sell over one million album to earn its RIAA Gold Record certification!

This is a place where army boots chew cigars and fight laser-shooting eyeballs—which are, for their part, piloting pears.”
—Anthony John Agnello reviews the beautiful, hand-drawn madness of Ballpoint Universe.
