The Complete Crumb Comics Vol. 13: Season of the Snoid

A perennial classic, back in print!
Back in print after a several year absence and with R. Crumbâ€™s popularity higher than ever in the wake of the bestselling R. Crumbâ€™s Genesis, this volume of The Complete Crumb Comics showcase several key years in Crumbâ€™s career.

Vol. 13 showcases the late 1970s, when Crumbâ€™s character the Snoid first appeared. That Crumb creation is a devilish imp, all id and no conscience, that some say is an alter ego of Crumb. Other highlights here include early collaborations with the late Harvey Pekar and a color section of covers Crumb drew for records by old-time blues and jazz musicians that beautifully convey his nostalgia for Americaâ€™s musical past. It also includes one of Crumbâ€™s most acclaimed works, â€œA Short History of America,â€ whose 12 panels chart the nationâ€™s progress â€• or deterioration â€• from unspoiled pastoral landscape to a strip mall wasteland. Crumbâ€™s brother Maxon, whom viewers of the documentary film Crumb will remember as an impecunious yogi who sleeps on a bed of nails, contributes an idiosyncratic introduction offering a unique perspective on Robertâ€™s early years. 26 pages of color; black-and-white comics throughout
