The Complete Crumb: The early years of bitter struggle

"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 consentrated [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; [and] classic cartoon creations Fritz the Cat and Mr. Natural."--Amazon.com.
