Zongo Comics did not last as long as its sister group, and the range was cancelled after the series failed to attract a wide audience.

Because only ten Zongo Comics were ever published, they are well sought after by collectors due to their rarity.

Gary Panter's graphic novel Jimbo in Purgatory (Fantagraphics, 2004) is thought of as #8 in this series but it was not published by Zongo.

The Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles (MOCA) displayed Gary Panter's work, including his Jimbo series, as part of the "Masters of American Comics" exhibition.

Postcards of the covers of Gary Panter's Jimbo comics were available in the MOCA gift shop.
