Weirdo is a magazine-sized comics anthology created by Robert Crumb and published by Last Gasp from 1981 to 1993.
Weirdo served as a "low art" counterpoint to its contemporary highbrow Raw. Early issues of Weirdo reflect Crumb's interests at the time – outsider art, fumetti, Church of the SubGenius-type anti-propaganda and assorted "weirdness." It also introduced artists such as Peter Bagge, Dori Seda and Dennis (Stickboy) Worden.
With issue #10, Crumb later handed over the editing reins to Bagge; with issue #18, the reins went to Crumb's wife, cartoonist Aline Kominsky-Crumb (except for issue #25, which was again edited by Bagge). The three editorial tenures were known respectively as "Personal Confessions," the "Coming of the Bad Boys," and the " Twisted Sisters."
Weirdo's final issue, #28, an internationally themed 68-page giant titled Verre D'eau (in French, "glass of water"), was published in 1993.

- Weirdo (magazine), an alternative comics anthology published by Last Gasp
- The Weirdos, a punk rock band
- "Weirdo" (song), a single by the Charlatans UK off their album Between 10th and 11th
"Weirdo" was a single released by The Charlatans in 1992. It was the first single released from the band's second album Between 10th and 11th. The single reached no. 19 on the UK Singles Chart. The single was the band's most successful in the United States, peaking at no. 1 on the Billboard Modern Rock Tracks chart for a week in May 1992 and no. 10 on the Billboard Hot Dance Club Play Singles chart.
"(Still a) Weirdo" is a song by Scottish recording artist KT Tunstall. It was released as the UK lead single from her fourth studio album Tiger Suit (2010), on 19 September 2010. Written by Tunstall herself and Greg Kurstin, and produced by Kurstin, the song is an acoustic rock ballad and talks about still the same (weird) person after many years. It received critical acclaim, with the majority of the critics complimented Tunstall for the ability to make an intelligent, simple song. It charted inside the top-forty on the UK Singles Chart and charted also on the Belgian charts. In the music video, Tunstall travels back in time to the 1960s.
