Raw #7
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join free"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.
In "Jelly Roll Morton's Voodoo Curse," the legendary jazz pioneer’s own words bring to life a haunting tale of fame, downfall, and the mysterious forces said to have shadowed his later years. Told through a blend of biography and myth, the story explores the dark turn in Morton’s life with a voice both defiant and vulnerable.
In *Maus, Chapter Six: Mouse Trap*, Vladek and Anja hide in Sosnowiec and Szopienice with local families, desperate for safety. When smugglers offer a chance to escape to Hungary—a country they believe is safer for Jews—their hope is tested by the perilous choices ahead.
