☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis volume of Fantagraphics' comprehensive series collects Robert Crumb's work from the mid-1980s, a period marked by his continued satirical and introspective comics. It includes material from Weirdo magazine, sketchbook excerpts, and strips like 'The Adventures of R. Crumb' and 'Mode O'Day,' showcasing his evolving style and social commentary during a transitional decade.
"Jelly Roll Morton's Voodoo Curse" presents a haunting, surreal journey drawn from Philip K. Dick’s own words, illustrated with raw, expressive lines by Robert Crumb. The story follows Dick as he grapples with a vivid vision that shifts his perception, immersing him in the mindset of ancient Apostolic Christians—until the boundary between vision and reality begins to blur. Crumb’s distinctive art, both in the interior and on the cover, captures the disorienting intensity of this psychological descent.
