[comics] An interview with Crumb biographer Dan Nadel: “He has this incredible instinct for survival” … fascinating interview about a recent biography of Robert Crumb. ‘I must say I was really, really surprised by how fast and how hard he hit in the fall of 1967, that was shocking to me. I had no idea that Robert was so internationally known by the end of 1967. Then Zap comes out in February ’68, Head Comics comes out in October ’68. By the end of ’68, he’s really, really famous. And known for being essentially an avant-garde artist. And he was unclassifiable, like he’s in a Whitney exhibition, he’s in a gallery show, he’s in the East Village Other, he’s in Rolling Stone. He’s across all media. That was really surprising.’
