"Robert Crumb--lurid, pornographic, sexy, twisted, hilarious, and depraved. The greatest American satirist is also its finest draftsman." --Joe Coleman
"God bless Crumb. I've always been happy that there was someone as sick and twisted as I am." --George Carlin
"I can think of no one more unqualified to say anything about Robert Crumb's artwork than myself. In fact, it's useless for most cartoonists of my generation to do so; without him, there wouldn't be any cartoonists of my generation." --Chris Ware, The Acme Novelty Library
