Yes, here it is: the most talked about book in comics. Five years at the drawing board hath wrought Crumb's own pen & ink rendering of the West's origin myth. Crumb, as he warned and as we would naturally expect, hasn't pulled any punches and has illustrated this tale as written, warts and all. Crumb says it best himself in his introduction: "I, R.

Back in print at last! in an amazing oversize (9 1/2" x 12 1/2") full color hardcover edition, no less. Madwoman of the Sacred Heart is the other Moebius/Jodorowsky masterpiece (along with, of course, The Incal).
