“This has all the early Crumb, Moscoso, Spain Rodriguez, Stanley Mouse, & the great Robert Williams who later launched Lowbrow art & subculture, the glory days of Zap Comics. I don't know if this one is the updated edition -- mine stops circa 1980.”

Underground goes Above
“The history of Underground comix explores the weird and wonderful days when comix were made NOT for money but from the heart. Explore the history of alternative (back when the word meant something), experimental, emotial, drug-related, sexploitation, and random acts of comicness. Learn the tragic history of Mickey Rat. Keep on truckin with R. Crumb. It's all here man! 40 years of history and the worst is filtered out. expand your mind and rejoice that you will know more about this subject after this book than that jerk behind the comic counter. written in a cronological order with an easy to follow appendix. every corner is covered 4 times. An incredible book.”
