“Torn Together”

"Torn Together" in Raw #7 (1985) is a striking, introspective story drawn entirely by Robert Crumb, whose distinctive style brings raw emotional weight to Jelly Roll’s own words as he reflects on the forces that may have shaped his downfall. With Crumb handling every aspect of the interior art and lettering, the issue feels like a deeply personal, unfiltered confession. The cover, a stark and haunting collaboration by Art Spiegelman, sets a tone of melancholy and mystery that lingers long after the final page.
