Robert Crumb is a foundational figure in underground comix, known for his intensely personal, often controversial, and visually obsessive work. A pioneer of the 1960s countercultural press, Crumb created iconic characters like Fritz the Cat and Mr. Natural, while also exposing the neuroses, contradictions, and fetishes of American life—often his own. His dense, cross-hatched drawings fuse early 20th-century cartooning with raw confessional content, elevating comics as a form of brutal self-reckoning and cultural critique. Crumb’s legacy is as complex as his output: fiercely influential, deeply polarizing, and utterly uncompromising.
