Synopsis "La Cara más Dulce de r. Crumb (in Spanish)"

El negativo y misántropo genio del cómic demuestra tener una cara dulce. ¿Pequeñas y monas gatitas, ángeles y bebés? ¿Flores, cucuruchos de helado y bandas musicales de chicos alemanes? ¿Viniendo, supuestamente, del artista más pesimista de su generación? Sí, es más, existe una cara dulce en Robert Crumb. Estas deliciosas ilustraciones ejemplifican maravillosamente los muchos momentos de ternura que, hasta ahora, han jugado un rol secundario frente a sus icónicos y más picantes dibujos de culto. Ahora Crumb se remonta a sus humildes inicios americanos como ilustrador de tarjetas de felicitaciones en Cleveland, cuando su talento innato para lo grotesco tuvo que ser reprimido a favor de la perenne llamada de lo bonito. El resultado era un mundo alegre y risueño en el que los lectores, cualquiera que fuese su personalidad, edad e incluso orientación sexual, podían disfrutar el momentáneo lapso del artista desde lo gamberro hacia lo bonito.

Robert Crumb (Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, August 30, 1943) is an American cartoonist, illustrator, and musician. He was one of the founders of the underground comic movement and is perhaps the most prominent figure of that movement. Although he is one of the best-known comic book authors, his career has always developed outside the mainstream industry.

As a musician, he was part of the band R. Crumb & His Cheap Suit Serenaders, dedicated to the dissemination of American popular music composed in the 1920s.

Crumb's graphic style mixes influences from early comic artists like Billy DeBeck, creator of the Barney Google strip, C.E. Brock, Rube Goldberg, and E.C. Segar (creator of Popeye). The author has also cited among his greatest influences Carl Barks (who drew Disney's Donald Duck comics), Harvey Kurtzman, and John Stanley, the second author of Little Lulu, which he adapted for long comics.

In the ideological field, the commentator Javier Coma observes in Crumb's early comics, "beneath his confrontation with the system, a critical stance towards the sociopolitical degenerations of the protest," noting "Crumb's nostalgic returns to a past anti-urban life, poetized by old customs and genuine popular music."
