Fritz the No-Good #[nn]
"Fritz the No-Good" is a raw, unflinching look at alienation and restless energy, drawn with the unmistakable, gritty hand of Robert Crumb. As the title character drifts through the city after being cast out by his wife, his encounters with an old flame and a radical cell lead him into a volatile, ill-fated act of protest. With every line and shadow rendered by Crumb himself, both inside and on the cover, this 1972 Ballantine Books comic captures a moment of countercultural tension with a uniquely personal, unvarnished edge.
