From the Publisher:
Robert Crumb enters the '70s with this, the sixth volume inFantagraphics Books' all-inclusive reprint series. This includes acouple of genuine rarities (some of them so obscure they didn't evenmake the Crumb Checklist), as well as all of Crumb's work from Big Ass #1, Zap #4, the remarkably offensive Snatch #3 and Jiz #1, the classic Despair, and the second issue of Motor City - classics all. The volume also includes a 16-page color section (with rare covers from the first three Gothic Blimp Works), a sumptuous new cover by Crumb, and an insightful intro by the Man himself (no, not Stan Lee). Absolutely indispensible! |
Annotation:
This exhaustive and exhausting (from the side-splitting laughter it induces) series from Fantagraphics attempts to gather together all of American comics master Robert Crumb's works. Although the prolific artist was still kicking out delightfully cantankerous comics when this series was initiated, the 17 volumes published through 2005 do an excellent job of archiving his creative development and of documenting his lasting imprint on the medium. Crumb's work has always pushed the limits of taste and challenged notions of propriety. This series is a must-have for aficionados and anyone up for a few off-color jokes, insightfully sharp cultural commentary, and charmingly virtuosic visual storytelling.
