Rory Hayes (August 8, 1949 – August 29, 1983) was an American underground cartoonist in the late 1960s and early 1970s. His comics were drawn in an expressionistic, primitivist style and usually dealt with grim subject matter such as paranoia, violent crime, and drug abuse. He was published in many of the most prominent comics in the underground scene, including Arcade and Bijou Funnies. Hayes died of a drug overdose in 1983.
