8" x 8.5", 114 page trade paperback titled EYEBEAM: TEETERING ON THE BLINK (EYEBEAM BOOK 6) by Sam Hurt/ Texas Monthly Press, ISBN # 0-87719-100-X, First Printing, Copyright 1988/ Eyebeam was a daily comic strip written and illustrated by Sam Hurt at the University of Texas at Austin. Unlike most college strips, its popularity led to a print life past Hurt's graduation. Beginning as a fairly typical "college life" strip, Eyebeam quickly mutated into something more. Besides the title character (a bemused, rail-thin lawyer and acceptor of weirdness) and the aforementioned Hank, regular characters included Eyebeam's down-to-earth but sexually voracious girlfriend Sally, and his best friend, the conical ne'er-do-well Ratliff McNubb. Secondary characters included the slacker robot IM4U, the narcissistic Rod Rutherford, Rod's lovestruck girlfriend Beth, and Eyebeam's coworker Vernon (who seemed to be missing the top of his head). Much later, Ratliff's rambunctious niece Peaches burst into the storylines, which indirectly led to the strip's demise. The sixth Eyebeam trade paperback collection. Ratliff steals Beth from Rod (Studmuffins), who, enraged, chases Ratliff through history in the time machine. Peaches steals an alien chariot, becomes Queen of the Tricycle Club, and terrorizes IM4U the robot. The book is complete and in FINE - VERY FINE condition with some overall light wear. On the first page, Sam Hurt has inscribed the book, "Rick: Teeter Onward. Sam Hurt '88" and drawn a small sketch.
