Crumb's work from the late 1980s, including the strips 'Cave Wimp,' 'Mode O'Day,' and 'Aline 'n' Bob,' along with a selection of covers, drawings, and other miscellaneous pieces from the period. Part of Fantagraphics' comprehensive 'The Complete Crumb Comics' series, it showcases the artist's evolving style and satirical edge during that era.
"Memories Are Made of This" collects a striking assortment of R. Crumb’s New Yorker illustrations and personal drawings from the early '90s, showcasing his signature blend of raw detail and wry observation. From portraits of cultural icons like Woody Guthrie and Frank Zappa to intimate sketches of women named Nancy, Alice, Elisa, and others, the issue offers a rare glimpse into Crumb’s private artistic world—drawn by Crumb himself, with cover art also by Crumb.
