Doghead is a comic book by Al Columbia. His first solo publication, it was released by Tundra Publishing in 1992 while he was involved with Alan Moore's ill-fated Big Numbers series. It contains three short stories, two in black and white and one in full color. Paul Gravett described it as "three dark, stylish tales, indebted to Sienkiewicz and McKean but with hints of [Columbia's] emerging singular identity". In a 1998 profile of Columbia, Marshall Pryor characterized the comic as "forgettable, but lovely, work - perhaps most notable for its experimentation with disturbing single images and animation-style movement, strengths of his later comics."
The last page of Doghead includes Columbia's "apologies" to some of his early sources of inspiration, including Black Francis, Nick Cave, William S. Burroughs, Dave McKean, David Lynch, Franz Kafka, and J. G. Ballard.
