JimJim was a comic book series by Jim Woodring, which the artist described as an "autojournal". It contained comics on a variety of subjects, many based on dreams, as well as surrealist drawings and free-form text which resembled automatic writing. Besides dreams, the work drew on Woodring's childhood experiences, hallucinations, past alcoholism, and Hindu beliefs. Its style, graphically precise and both humorous and frightening, was unique among underground comics of the time. Jim began in 1980 as a self-published zine, and was published as a regular series by Fantagraphics Books beginning in 1986 (four issues, followed by six issues of Jim volume 2). It is partly collected in The Book of Jim (ISBN 1141298368). The character Frank, who began as a recurring feature in Jim, later acquired his own series.
Jim is also a nickname for James.
