Omschrijving
Behind its cover of dancing rednecks lies more fun from R. Crumb. One of the standouts of this issue is a long philosophical strip called "Can You Stand Alone And Face Up To The Universe?" In it Crumb asks the big questions and comes up with answers both thoughtful and hilarious. The drawings in this strip are especially beautiful. Another highlight is Crumb's journalistic coverage of the Academy Awards. Unlike the fawning celebrity love of the mainstream media, Crumb responds to Hollywood with an abject horror and revulsion both hilarious and spot-on in its brutal observations. More beautifully drawn fun from the master.
