It collects most of Brown's non-graphic novel short works up to that point, with the notable exception of his incomplete adaptations of the Gospels.

Originally appearing in Underwater #4, Brown has said he wanted to write an anti-psychiatry mini-comic[4] in the style of a Jack Chick pamphlet.

[5] He distributed "a couple hundred" photocopies of the eight-pager, leaving them in telephone booths and bus shelters around Toronto.

[10] The strip is six pages, each laid out in a 9-panel grid, which "seems to be well suited for 'talking at the reader' stories", as it "really lets the author pack in the dialogue".

During this time, his father died, and Brown felt that he'd lost focus on Underwater and decided to put it to an end, switching to Louis Riel.
