A really solid one-off comicbook by Crumb. Most of it is short stories about a despicable small man named Snoid who gets into all sorts of trouble as a young passionate artist with a foot fetish.
There's also a wonderful silent strip called "A Short History of America" where from one camera angle, Crumb shows us the development of a rural area over 100+ year period from idylic forest, to a single train track, and eventually developed into a busy 1970s intersection. The amount of detail and authenticity in each panel is wonderful.

El quilombo que generaría la publicación de algo así hoy día.
Racista, misógino, pero bueno, despegado uno de lo políticamente correcto, son buenas historias, ácidas, muy bien dibujadas, alternando estilos y temáticas.

Good dirty sexist fun from the master of misanthropy.
