The People's Comics

Robert Crumb’s The People’s Comics is a single-issue anthology from Golden Gate Publishing Company, launched in 1972 as a showcase for his singular, unfiltered vision. As both writer and artist, Crumb fills the book with his signature blend of satirical, countercultural, and deeply personal comic strips, cementing its place as a raw artifact of the underground comix era. Though brief in run, it captures the anarchic spirit of its time and remains a key entry in Crumb’s prolific early-70s output.
