The Life and Death of Fritz the Cat
Back in January, The Life and Death of Fritz the Cat saw its first ever re-release for the first time since the original publication of the title back in the 90s.
For those who aren’t aware of the book; The Life and Death of Fritz the Cat comprises of every Fritz the Cat comic strip that Robert Crumb has released, from the early Fritz Sketchbook Strips to the infamous 1972 strip, Fritz the Cat Superstar which saw Fritz killed off by an ex-girlfriend of his with an icepick.
Fritz the Cat had two animated films; the 1972 movie that was based on several Fritz the Cat Comic Strips that were adapted for the film, and the 1974 sequel, The Nine Lives of Fritz the Cat, a non-linear storyline which was not based on any Fritz the Cat Comic Strips.
I purchased the Paperback reissue a while back, it’s a great collection of every single Fritz the Cat Comic Strip that’s been released. Since the comics are adults only, I would recommend the book to you 🙂

I started reading Arcade the Comics Revue issue no. 1 from 1975 edited by Bill Griffith and Art Spiegelman and likely known for contributions from Robert Crumb. On the final page is Victor Moscoso's “Mystic Comics Part 1” which has a character that I found immediately familiar. I tried to find some citation that this was an inspiration for Benny the Cab from "Who Framed Roger Rabbit”, but had no luck. Don't ask me to explain what you're seeing. The three-panel toon is quite abstract, and the speech bubbles appear to be deliberately blank.
I've included the full strip for whatever context you might be able to glean. If you know what any of this means, please share. #comics #movies #RogerRabbit #RobertCrumb #VictorMascoso

Vielä yhden kiistellyn piirtäjän puheenvuoro hassujen ja järkyttävien kuvien piirtämisen puolesta. Olen muuten nyt saanut luettua melkein loppuun tämän. Kannessa Crumbin omakuva toteaa että kaikkia juttuja ei ole tehty ns. hyvän maun rajoissa.

Eloge farfelu de la paranoïa, philosophie du doute poussée jusqu'à l'absurde ou véritable délire complotiste ?
Je me garderai bien de trancher et souhaite bon courage aux futurs historiens et biographes qui se pencheront sur la vie et l'œuvre de Robert Crumb. En attendant, on peut lire ses "Chroniques de la paranoïa" récemment sorties chez Cornélius, et en complément utile son entretien avec Marie Klock paru dans Libération.

“Never tell me the odds!”*…
How likely is it that one will be born on a Leap Day? That one will find a pearl in an oyster? That one will solve Wordle on the first guess? That one will die on a tornado? That two people will share the same fingerprint?
The good folks at R74n (@r74n.com) have these probabilities– and so many more: “What Are The Odds?”
(Image above– and tutorial on the odds ratio: source)

As we place our bets, we might spare a thought for Harvey Kurtzman; he died on this date in 1993. A cartoonist and editor, he is best know for writing and editing the parodic comic book Mad from 1952 until 1956. Kurtzman scripted every story in the first twenty-three issues. (The New York Times‘ obituary for Kurtzman in 1993, alluding to the role of publisher William Gaines, said Kurtzman had “helped found Mad Magazine.” This prompted an angry response to the newspaper from Art Spiegelman, who complained that awarding Kurtzman partial credit for starting Mad was “like saying Michelangelo helped paint the Sistine Chapel just because some Pope owned the ceiling.”)
Kurtzman, who mentored many younger cartoonists (including Terry Gilliam and Robert Crumb), is considered, with cartoonists like Will Eisner, Jack Kirby, and Carl Barks, one of the defining creators of the Golden Age of American comic books. The prestigious Harvey Awards (for achievement in comic books) are named in his honor.

@ScottSa Because of the kind of crazy I am, I had to research the original Robert Crumb illustration behind this and so many similar memes. Turns out it's called "Bring Me Your Love", and it dates from 1983. The caption is said to be a quote from beat poet Charles Bukowski:
"....SHE BROUGHT HER RIGHT HAND UP, LOOKED AT IT, CLENCHED IT INTO A FIST AND PUNCHED HERSELF SQUARELY IN THE NOSE, HARD."

Irgendwann, wenn ich im Lotto gewinne, werde ich mir mir zwei Meter #RobertCrumb-Werke ins Regal stellen.
Wunderbares Video mit »A Short History of America« von Crumb — das wie eine Homage auf »Tim in Amerika« anmutet — kombiniert mit #JoniMitchells Lied »The Big Yellow Taxi«.
›Die Leuz‹ übersehen meist, dass um ein*e guter Zeichner*in zu sein, man erstmal ein gute*r Beobachter*in und Zusammenspiegler*in von Erkenntnissen sein sollte.
