“Four Arguments for the Elimination of Television”

In a stark, satirical turn, the U.S. President, pushed to his limits, opts for an extreme measure to regain control—only to find himself entangled in a surreal, self-reflective spiral. Robert Crumb’s incisive storytelling and raw, expressive art bring a biting, unflinching edge to this 1979 comic, with every line and panel drawn and inked by Crumb himself. The cover, also by Crumb, captures the story’s anxious, fever-dream tone in bold, hand-drawn detail.
