The portfolio was created by the artists to support the defense of Frank Mangiaraciana, the owner of Friendly Franks, a small retail store in Lansing, Illinois. On December 10, 1986, the manager of Friendly Franks was arrested for allegedly distributing obscene materials. Among the comics seized during the bust were: Bizarre Sex, Omaha the Cat Dancer, Weirdo, Murder, The Bodyssey, Heavy Metal, Ms. Tree, Love and Rockets, Elfquest, Elektra: Assassin, Swords of the Swashbucklers, The Chronicles of Corum, and Ex-Mutants.
