Reviews
" Crumb is fabulous, an engrossing biography, both intimate about the man but insightful about the times. Dan Nadel has written a revealing 'portrait of the artist as a young man'--but also about the mature curmudgeon we all know as 'R. Crumb,' the signature Sixties artist of underground comics. Hilarious at times, poignant and always empathetic, Crumb is a marvelous trip crafted by a brilliant biographer." --Kai Bird, co-author of Pulitzer Prize-winning American Prometheus: The Triumph and Tragedy of J. Robert Oppenheimer, A LitHub Most Anticipated Book of 2025 "[A] gripping and essential book... This [archival] material, as well as Nadel's interviews with Crumb, gives his biography the kind of granular texture and thematic heft that Crumb's life and work deserves." --Boston Globe "An artist biography that astutely connects the work to the life story without forcing or simplifying anything. It works as cultural history and criticism...Nadel honors the complexity of his subject, even, perhaps particularly, when it gets ugly." --LA Times "Affectionate but unsparing...Nadel [has] developed a deep knowledge of comics as both a writer and a curator." --New Yorker "This new biography from expert Dan Nadel traces Crumb's turbulent life and far-reaching impact, explaining not only his unique talent, but also how he clawed out the space and money to create comics that were weird, satirical, and adult against the resistance of a conservative and stolid culture." --LitHub "Nadel's book floats Crumb on the rapids of his times... Crumb gives us the reprobate who drew 'Life Among the Constipated' and 'The Family That Lays Together Stays Together,' as well as the domestic who enjoyed a long, fulfilling marriage to Aline Kominsky-Crumb, his wife and frequent collaborator, who died in 2022." --Harper's Magazine "Lavishly illustrated, with personal photos... Crumb is a terrific biography." --Toronto Star "Excellent, [a] comprehensive biography of the legendary comic artist." --Art in America "Dan Nadel's biography of cartoonist Robert Crumb is unlikely to be equaled or surpassed...It is entirely to Nadel's credit that he sustains a clear through-line throughout the 400+ pages of narrative--describing Crumb's peripatetic life as a child and adult and, as a successful artist." --The Book Beat, "Dan Nadel brings his singularly tilted perspective to the most monolithic visual prankster of the last century, walking us deep into the epicenter of R. Crumb's complex world. With empathy, wisdom, and a profound ability to situate the artist within the political and social realities that formed him, this book will stand tall next to the great biographies as a window into the counterculture at the moment we need it most. A witty, wise and unusual writer, Nadel upcycles the rags of American history to craft something boldly new, about a man who is both omnipresent and utterly unknown." --Lena Dunham " Crumb is fabulous, an engrossing biography, both intimate about the man but insightful about the times. Dan Nadel has written a revealing 'portrait of the artist as a young man'--but also about the mature curmudgeon we all know as 'R. Crumb,' the signature Sixties artist of underground comics. Hilarious at times, poignant and always empathetic, Crumb is a marvelous trip crafted by a brilliant biographer." --Kai Bird, co-author of Pulitzer Prize-winning American Prometheus: The Triumph and Tragedy of J. Robert Oppenheimer "There's no better guide through the rough, raw underworld of R. Crumb than Dan Nadel. A definitive account that reads like an intimate memoir, Crumb 's scenic history of counterculture cartooning in America contains the same propulsive energy and vivid details as its subject." --Prudence Peiffer, author of The Slip: The New York City Street That Changed American Art Forever "The intimacy of Robert Crumb's work has fascinated me for more than half my life. Every artist should read this book!" --KAWS "This is a great biography that explores the complexity of one of the world's greatest cartoonists ever." --Art Spiegelman, author of Maus "Before you know it, Dan has nimbly and enjoyably laid out the entire guts of five decades of the life and work of Crumb. Crumb's work is realer than real and Dan lets it live as it was and is." --Bill Callahan, author of Letters to Emma Bowlcut, A LitHub Most Anticipated Book of 2025 "This new biography from expert Dan Nadel traces Crumb's turbulent life and far-reaching impact, explaining not only his unique talent, but also how he clawed out the space and money to create comics that were weird, satirical, and adult against the resistance of a conservative and stolid culture." --LitHub

Synopsis
The first biography of Robert Crumb--one of the most profound and influential artists of the 20th century--whose iconic, radically frank and meticulously rendered cartoons and comics inspired generations of readers and cartoonists, from Art Spiegelman to Alison Bechdel. Robert Crumb is often credited with single-handedly transforming the comics medium into a place for adult expression, in the process pioneering the underground comic book industry, and transforming the vernacular language of 20th-century America into an instantly recognizable and popular aesthetic, as iconic as Walt Disney or Charles Schulz. Now, for the first time, Dan Nadel, a curator and writer specializing in comics and art, shares how this complicated artist survived childhood abuse, fame in his twenties, more fame, and came out the other side intact. More than just a biography of an iconic cartoonist, Crumb is the story of a richly complex life at the forefront of both the underground and popular cultures of post-war America. Including forty-five stunning black-and-white images throughout and a sixteen-page color insert featuring images both iconic and obscure, Crumb spans the pressures of 1950s suburban America and Crumb's highly dysfunctional early family life; the history of comics and graphic satire; 20th century popular music; the world of the counterculture; the birth of underground comic books in 1960s San Francisco with Crumb's Zap Comix ; the economic challenges and dissolution of the hippie dream; and the path Robert Crumb blazed through it all. Written with Crumb's cooperation, this fascinating, rollicking book takes in seven decades of Crumb's iconic works, including Fritz the Cat , Weirdo , and his final book-length comic of The Book of Genesis ; capturing, in the process, the essence of an extraordinary artist and his times., The first biography of Robert Crumb, "a monolithic presence who rewrote the rules of what comics are" (Art Spiegelman) and whose work shaped American culture and politics in the 20th century.
