A Robert Crumb le gustaría ser rey...Así podría tener una negra que le abanicara y cientos de horas para hacer lo que diera la real gana. Crumb es uno de los mayores genios del siglo XX. Ignorado por la intelligencia cultural por utilizar el cómic como medio, ha sido el más fascinante creador underground, y una de las personalidades culturales más influyentes de todos los tiempos.
Robert Dennis Crumb (born August 30, 1943)— is an American artist, illustrator, and musician recognized for the distinctive style of his drawings and his critical, satirical, subversive view of the American mainstream.
Crumb was a founder of the underground comix movement and is regarded as its most prominent figure. Though one of the most celebrated of comic book artists, Crumb's entire career has unfolded outside the mainstream comic book publishing industry. One of his most recognized works is the "Keep on Truckin'" comic, which became a widely distributed fixture of pop culture in the 1970s. Others are the characters "Devil Girl", "Fritz the Cat", and "Mr. Natural".
He was inducted into the comic book industry's Will Eisner Comic Book Hall of Fame in 1991.
