Jim (comics)
Jim is a comic book series by Jim Woodring. It began in 1980 as a self-published zine and was picked up by Fantagraphics Books in 1986 after cartoonist Gil Kane introduced Woodring to Fantagraphics co-owner Gary Groth. The publisher released four magazine-sized black-and-white issues starting in September 1987. A comic book-sized continuation, Jim Volume II, with some color, began in 1993 and ran for six issues until 1996.
Jim, which Woodring described as an "autojournal", contained comics on a variety of subjects, many based on dreams, as well as surreal drawings and free-form text which resembled Jimantha automatic writing. Besides dreams, the work drew on Woodring's childhood experiences, hallucinations, past alcoholism, and Hindu beliefs. It also included stories of recurring Woodring characters such as Pulque (the embodiment of drunkenness), boyhood friends Chip and Monk, and, in Volume II, his signature creation Frank.
Content
Jim is made up of a variety of short comics, text pieces, and artwork. Most of the works are short comics based on Woodring's dreams. Some of the pieces are surreal parodies of advertisements in the Mad tradition.
Gimel
Gimel is the third letter of the Semitic abjads, including Phoenician Gīml 
, Hebrew ˈGimel ג, Aramaic Gāmal 
, Syriac Gāmal ܓ, and Arabic ǧīm ج (in alphabetical order; fifth in spelling order). Its sound value in the original Phoenician and in all derived alphabets, save Arabic, is a voiced velar plosive [ɡ]; in Modern Standard Arabic, it represents has many standards including [ɡ], see below.
In its unattested Proto-Canaanite form, the letter may have been named after a weapon that was either a staff sling or a throwing stick, ultimately deriving from a Proto-Sinaitic glyph based on the hieroglyph below:
The Phoenician letter gave rise to the Greek gamma (Γ), the Latin C and G, and the Cyrillic Г.
Hebrew gimel
Variations
Hebrew spelling: גִּימֵל
Bertrand Russell posits that the letter's form is a conventionalized image of a camel. The letter may be the shape of the walking animal's head, neck, and forelegs. Barry B. Powell, a specialist in the history of writing, states "It is hard to imagine how gimel = "camel" can be derived from the picture of a camel (it may show his hump, or his head and neck!)".

Bacon Eggs & Biscuits
by: JimWell I was eating my breakfast late one Tuesday night,
when I witnessed an event that really couldn't have been right.
My bacon eggs and biscuits were as tasty as could be,
when much to my surprise they started talking to me.
Well I almost lost my stomach on the kitchen floor,
'cause I'd never eaten something that could talk to me before.
But I said that I was sorry, and they said it was OK
and just to be polite I sat down to hear what they had to say...
REFRAIN: They said, "Son you've got a message from the powers that be,
and as we speak they're making deals for you with MTV,
So write a song about a girlie on your electric guitar,
and leave it to the boys on top to make you into a Rock'n'Roll
star...
I gotta tell ya I was startled when I heard that news,
I got to thinkin' it may be time to start a-cuttin' back on booze,
but my breakfast it kept tellin' me my head was clear,
so just to be quite sure I went and grabbed another beer.
Boy, that beer sure tasted good,
and when I finished, wha'd'ya know,
my bacon eggs and biscuits yelled, "I told you so!"
So I picked up my guitar and wrote a couple of tunes,
wrote most of 'em about this crazy guy named Jim that I knew...
(REFRAIN)
On the advice of my breakfast,
I took my songs into town,
and I spent some time and money tryin' to get that trendy sound...
Somethin' hip and somethin' groovy's just what I was lookin' for,
and when I got the sound I wanted I took my record to the stores.
Well the store clerks, they all told me that my chances were real slim,
that my songs were kinda stupid, and who the hell is Jim?
So I gave 'em each a copy, and I headed on my way,
guess that's just what I get for talkin' to my breakfast anyway...
(REFRAIN)
Well I never got too famous,
and I never was a star..
sorry, Jim old buddy,
who cares where the hell y'are.
I've got the sky, I've got the mountains,
and with a little beer I'm set,
and I eat Bacon, Eggs, and Biscuits
every goddamn chance I get.
(REFRAIN X 2)
