Mr. Natural made appearances in other underground newspapers such as the "East Village Other", which published the strips "Mr. Natural Meets God" and "Mr. Natural Repents" among others. He made his first official comix appearance in "Zap Comix" #1 (Feb. 1968). Mr. Natural also appeared in early underground comix titles like "Bijou Funnies", and "Yellow Dog". He was a regular in "Zap" for the balance of the 1960s until appearing in his own three-issue title, originally co-published by The San Francisco Comic Book Company and Apex Novelties.
