Crumb, Lynda Barry, Gary Panter, Gilbert Shelton, Shary Flenniken, and Harvey Kurtzman re-invented the art of the comic book and changed what comics were forever. Explore the amazing world of underground comix, investigate the history of comic books in general, and meet the people who revolutionized the art form.
