This comix was the basis for a successful copyright infringement suit by Walt Disney Productions against the Air Pirates. It depicts Disney characters involved with sex and drugs. Further sales and future reprinting of copies were barred as a result of the suit. The Air Pirates contended that the characters were in effect public figures and therefore legal subjects for satire.
