Published in Brisbane, California, U.S.A., Candy Strecker first released this title in 1979 and continued publishing throughout the 1980s and 1990s. Approximately 24 issues were published.

Strecker describes it as; "a mix of mutant trash culture, thought-provoking juxtapositions, bemused natterings and street-level anthropology."
