For those that don't know (see comments below), Gary Groth is arguably partly responsible for Crumb's transition into being an art hero in the MODERN era and has helped Crumb earn significant amounts of money. This may be why Crumb seems to tolerate or perhaps even slightly respect him more than a lot of other people.
The talent of Robert Crumb, transcends the "Psychodelic", like so many other great artists in history, he is a one-of-a-kind, and he, like so many other geniuses in history, felt naturally compelled to produce. He had no choice, "The great Springwell of Creativity", as Bob Dylan would put it, "Was compelling him to produce. He had no choice."
Thank you so much , Robert ! Your cartoons caracters are so alived , that we can smell them , feel them ! Your the only one who have, reach , attained ,that hight level of expression ,as a cartoonist ARTIST ! Thank you fellow , my friend in spirit .
Great to see him make it out to India, he was going to come to Australia to do a talk at the Opera House but the media were quite brutal about his previous work, so he didn't want to come anymore.
How he speaks man, I just picked it up for a while when I saw the documentary first. It was hard to drop, but I dropped it. He was in India, it was fu"king insane.
Dear robert , I guess that you know , that , in france there is a cartoonist , drawing cartoons caracteres ,with a familiar style of expression , kind of similar in many way to your work, his name is GOTLIB , But you still my favorite cartoonist , from them all !

Why do you assume that.. So riddled with bias in that nasty whyte superiority bias complex of yours. Also, why is it a once in a lifetime opportunity? Crumb is a cool guy, makes dope comics, but stop with that typical American idol worshiping a human into infinity. It's nauseating and ironically very uncrumblike.
To explain some one that doesn't know who Crumb is.. just say " The guy who drew the cartoon on t shirts Keep on Trucking!"... and the cartoon Fritz the Cat! I myself love the way he draws! Especially women!
What a horrible interviwer. He doesn't pay attention to what Crumb says, he barely laughs with him, he's just too worried about the whole interview thing. You gotta know how to conversate.. It gets better by the end thbo.
***** You think? I actually think Crumb's great at conversating, and can easily express himself through words. And that ''blowing nose'' thing is just him showing off, showing he doesn't care and hates that kind of bullshit. Somewhat punk attitude.
Gary Groth is a friend of his. He has published several of his books. He is also one of the founders of the Comics Journal where he has conducted tons of great interviews.

An almost perfect interview!!! Outstanding interviewer, presentation and ICONIC LEGENDARY INTERVIEWEE

Fuck, really? I didn't hear about that. What media? Packer empire? Murdoch scum?

Crumb is one of the original Nerds.
Watch Terry Zwigoff's CRUMB
Since my neighbor, S.Clay Wilson passed, I've been going back in time.
Thank you for posting this video. It's very exciting to see the appreciation of art as it travels across continents, across cultures.
❤❤❤❤❤❤2 comics legends
Robert is fascinating!
His documentary director was David Lynch, it was well made. One of the most interesting people
@@vishalrana1552 nope! It was Terry Zwigoff

Its awesome to see such a conversation happening at Comic Con India.
I bet some of this people don't even know who he is, and how this is a once in a lifetime opportunity. LOL
He is amazing.

no ego here ⬆️
but at least it's not one of those nasty white superiority biased ego complexes... right?
nope, gotta bona fide ego of color here folks...
theres probably a guy who works at the post office in the crowd
very..very...nice artist in angle...
The Kibosh!
“Is LSD available here in India?!”

thought this was Les Claypool for a second
wow i was in India at the same time
Gawd - they rented the camera jib and just had to over use it. Not once do you see a tight shot of Crumb’s face. Terrible video editing.
I am here just for R. Crumb, but this interviewer is dismal. And don’t get me started on the needless camera angles and cuts...
shitty INTERVIEWER and what a waste of a great moment!
yep, word for the interviewer that comes to mind is "obtuse''.
ive seen more enthused dead people.
1:57- 2:00 hahahaha

jeez, how do you become a "comic critic"? sounds like a pretty pointless calling
Like Cuomo (Fredo)?!
