Title: The Complete Crumb Comics, Vol. 1: The Early Years of Bitter Struggle
Author: Robert Crumb
Language: English
Adult content
Robert Crumb is one of America's most radical, incisive, and talented cartoonists.
The Complete Crumb Comics: The Early Years of Bitter Struggle is the first of a multi volume series, and includes previously unpublished strips created from 1958 to 1962.
Crumb's earliest works, some written when he was as young as 15, range from an encounter with Dracula ("I didn't try to escape Dracula, my mind was concentrated [sic] on one thing . . . I was thirsty . . . very thirsty") to Nikita Khrushchev's 1958 visit to the U.S. ("Ever watchful guards stay with Khruschev during a refreshing hot bath.").
Crumb aficionados and neophytes alike should rejoice in this classic collection of comic strips; sketchbooks; underground comics; dramatic and autobiographical strips; classic cartoon creations Fritz the Cat and Mr. Natural; and a pithy, biographical preface by Crumb's friend Marty Pahls.
