The Complete Crumb Comics, Vol. 1: The Early Years of Bitter Struggle (Trade Paperback, Fantagraphics Books) Second Edition
The essential starting point for any Robert Crumb collection, The Complete Crumb Comics, Vol. 1 dives into the artist’s earliest published and previously unpublished work from the late 1950s through the early 1960s. These formative pieces reveal Crumb developing the raw, expressive style and subversive voice that would later define the underground comix revolution. From school-age sketchbook experiments to early humor strips and proto–counterculture ideas, this volume traces the evolution of a young artist pushing against the norms of commercial cartooning.
Packed with eccentric characters, surreal humor, and flashes of the biting satire to come, this first volume captures the foundations of Crumb’s creative world—fragmented, rebellious, and fiercely personal. For collectors, historians, and fans of alternative comics, it’s an indispensable look at the beginnings of one of America’s most influential cartoonists.
