I was playing around with my friend Tom Allison’s new typewriter as he told me about his recent experience with a fruit-eating fanatic who would not go away. I typed down every word (I’m a very fast typist) and realized I had a story for Gay Comix.

Tom knew that I was doing the story and that I was giving him credit. He seemed to be all for the project, but when I gave him a copy of the finished comic book, he didn’t say a word. I never saw him again.
