    Check out our review of The Wolverton Bible an artist who was an influence on Crumb's work: th-cam.com/video/gFuqRI38rEU/w-d-xo.html

    A "nostalgic" walk through Crumbland. Takes me back. Seems so long ago, and it really was. But his work really holds up imho.

      Agreed, his work stands the test of time and holds up so well. Thank you for watching!

    You can definitely see the rubber hose styling of Fleischer studios in some of Crumb's work - that's for sure! I believe the comic strip where he goes to the oscars was from around the time the documentary was released. One thing about Crumb that I really do enjoy as an aside is his lettering - it always looks SO GOOD! I'm looking forward to the day you guys review "Drawn Together" which collects all his his and Aline's collaborative comics. Such a wonderful timeline of their relationship!

      Well said. Those are some really great points! And yes, we need to review Drawn Together as well!

    Crumb and the underground guys like Spain and Williams where on a different level. These guys were so honed in that their hand was pretty much fused to their subconscious which probably contributes to some of the controversy today. Awesome introspective and look forward to more.

      Hey there! Thanks for tuning in…we have a ton more to come! I couldn’t agree more with your statement..it’s so true! The underground comix movement was about honesty and just putting all out there!

    Crumb has always struck me as just a perpetually grumpy old man. Even his stuff from his younger years, seems like a grumpy old fuck. Its great, and really what makes him, him for the most part.

      Oh yes, I agree. He's definitely a grumpy dude.

      @@sawblade666 well, I guess I just thought of it because David Boswell's art has some similarity to R. Crumb, not that it's trying to imitate it though. Boswell's style is his own and great on it's own merits.
      Also, don't miss Harvey Pekar's American Splendor, of which Crumb drew some issues.

      I’ve been reading Crumb’s comics since I was 11 or 12 and from 12 to 14 worked at my local comic book store where I was exposed to everything from Disney and Archie comics to Marvel and DC superheroes to all of the great underground comics of the 60s, 70s, and 80s. You guys should really check out Reid Fleming: World’s Toughest Milkman, there are only a few issues but they’re pretty damn funny.

    On the subject of offensiveness; it's completely subjective. The work cannot be innately offensive but a person does choose to be offended or not offended by something. Even if that person doesn't realize they have a choice.
