The Comic Book Holocaust

The Comic Book Holocaust, a 2023 series from Huber Editions, began with a single issue that explores the dark history of the medium's censorship and destruction. Associated with writer-artist Robert "Bob" Crumb, the series confronts the legacy of the 1950s Senate hearings and the infamous Comics Code Authority. Its importance lies in its unflinching look at how moral panic shaped the industry, making it a stark, essential read for understanding comics' battle for survival.
