Many of the names you will see here are names that belong in the category of 'people that you've already heard of', and truly, such is the case today. He is certainly not known for doing, say, mainstream commercial superhero or horror comics, but if he ever decides to draw some, I will be the first in line! I am talking about Robert Crumb, king of underground cartoonists'. I can only say I am a fan, and he falls neatly into my top 'ten comic artist's of all time'. Over at "THE BLOG AT THE END OF TIME" we were discussing 'The CUTE Factor', and Robert Crumb holds a Master's degree in 'Cute Factor'. I love his wonderfully unique and instantly recognizable, personally-crafted style. There is both a gritty realism and a wacky ludicrousness that I cannot help but be drawn to. Crumb has the amazing ability to draw any scene, no matter how sexually perverse or horrifically violent in reality, and make it somehow ...'CUTE'! Now, before you go off reading, a final disclaimer that should also fall under the category of 'things you should already know'...this completely enjoyable Robert Crumb cartoon contains 'Adult Themes' and viewers should use mature discretion.
There! Now, go enjoy the mini "Crumb" double feature -- From ZAP Comix # 3, here is
...DIRTY DOG!
