Jaxon was the pen name of Jack Edward Jackson (May 15, 1941 – June 8, 2006), an American cartoonist. Many consider him the first underground comix artist. He co-founded the seminal Rip Off Press.
Jackson was born in 1941 in Pandora, Texas. He majored in accounting at the University of Texas and was a staffer for its Texas Ranger humor magazine until he and others were fired over what he called "a petty censorship violation." Soon afterwards, he self-published the one-shot God Nose (1964), which is considered by many to be the first underground comic.[citation needed]
Jackson moved to San Francisco in 1966, where he became art director of the dance poster division of Family Dog. In 1969, he co-founded Rip Off Press, one of the first independent publishers of underground comix, with three other Texas transplants, Gilbert Shelton, Fred Todd, and Dave Moriaty. Despite this, most of his underground comics work, heavily influenced by EC Comics, was published by Last Gasp.
Jackson is best known for his historical work documenting the history of Native America and Texas, including as Comanche Moon (1979); El Alamo (2002); Los Tejanos; The Secret of San Saba (1989); Indian Lover: Sam Houston & the Cherokees (1999); and Lost Cause (1998).

Genres: ,I fought my way to jaxon, been heavy on my mind
I found you alone there, somehow forcing a smile
I've been known to act out
I've been kind to let you down
We forgot about the hardest things on a,
On a walk downtown
And I don't care
No I don't mind if you need me to
Carry the weight, carry it with me
Until you find yourself, you're on your own
To carry the weight, to carry it with you
Until you find yourself, and you're in my arms
You're in my arms
The wind is what brought me here
And it was you who made me stay
I can't stop myself from wondering
What if that storm never came, no
And I don't care
No I don't mind if you need me to
Carry the weight, carry it with me
Until you find yourself, you're on your own
To carry the weight, to carry it with you
Until you find yourself, and you're in my arms
So will you wait for me, I changed so you could see
This is forever, I'm not mistaken
This emptiness in me, the boy that used to be someone else
And I don't care, No I don't care
Carry the weight, carry it with me
Until you find yourself, you're on your own
To carry the weight, to carry it with you
Until you find yourself, and you're in my arms
Carry the weight, carry it with me
Until you find yourself, you're on your own
To carry the weight, to carry it with you
