Publisher's Synopsis

The multiple award-winning Complete Crumb Comics series enters the mid-1980s with this 16th volume, a period that many consider to be the richest of Crumb's career. Featuring Crumb's gorgeous Pioneers of Country Music' colour portrait series, and such Weirdo classics as 'The Religious Experience of Philip K. Dick', the book is rounded out with a new cover and introduction by Crumb and a colour section that includes rare album art for various jazz and blues greats, covers for Weirdo and The Comics Journal, and more.'

About the Publisher

Fantagraphics Books

Fantagraphics Books

Fantagraphics Books has been a leading proponent of comics as a legitimate form of art and literature since it began publishing the critical trade magazine The Comics Journal in 1976. By the early 1980s, Fantagraphics found itself at the forefront of the burgeoning movement to establish comics as a medium as eloquent and expressive as the more established popular arts of film, literature, poetry, et al. Fantagraphics quickly established a reputation as an advocacy publisher that specialized in seeking out and publishing the kind of innovative work that traditional comics corporations who dealt almost exclusively in super-heroes and fantasy either didn?t know existed or wouldn?t touch: serious, dramatic, historical, journalistic, political, and satirical work by a new generation of alternative cartoonists as well as many artists who gained prominence as part of the seminal underground comix movement of the '60s. Fantagraphics has since gained an international reputation for its literate and audacious editorial standards and its exacting production values.
