Tijuana Bibles
"Tijuana Bibles were pornographic tracts popular in America before the advent of mass-market full-color glossy wank-fodder such as Playboy. A typical bible consisted of eight stapled comic-strip frames portraying characters and celebrities (eg. John Dillinger, Popeye, Disney characters) in wildly sodomistic situations. Many could be considered grossly racist, sexist, and otherwise wholly "politically incorrect." Browser discretion is advised." Want to know more?

Isn't this the same thing but different (NSFW)? Except that you couldn't wipe it off afterwards.

There's a really good book out full of these called 'Tijuana Bibles: Art and Wit in America's Forbidden Funnies, 1930s-1950s'.
I was over at a friend's house for a party and he had the book sitting out on his coffee table. I started to flip though it only to find I had about 3 or 4 people hovering over me looking at them too.
I felt kind of awkward.

So, we've been lied to about the origin of 'Google'?

You should have gone for the Tijuana Korans. No one's done that yet.
