About this Item: W. W. Norton & Company, New York, 2009. Hardcover. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: As New. 1st Edition. If you are of a certain age and remember the 60's and 70's like I do and if you owned a "head" shop during that time, you know R. Crumb, the creator of Zap comics, The fabulous Furry Freak Brother, Mr. Natural and so many more iconic comics. The Book of Genesis illustrated by Crumb, all 50 chapters. The illustrations are Crumb at his finest the words are His words. I am not a bible reader, but I believe that the text is the same as you would find in your Gideon Bible. Is Crumb trying to get religion? I don't know his religious temperament, but this is a fun and interesting way to get your religion on. Book is NEW.

Now, readers of every persuasion: Crumb fans, comic book lovers, and believers?can gain astonishing new insights from these harrowing, tragic, and even juicy stories.
