The Apex Treasury of Underground Comics / The Best of Bijou Funnies #[nn]
In "Mr. Natural Goes to a Meeting of the Minds," Gilbert Shelton delivers a surreal, sharp-witted tale from the heart of the underground comics scene, featuring Fat Freddy’s Big Book of the Dead in a moment of culinary crisis. When cash shortages trigger a full-blown junk food withdrawal, the Brothers rally for a bold grocery store heist, all in the name of satisfying Freddy’s cravings. The story’s chaotic energy is matched by Shelton’s distinctive art and lettering, while the iconic cover by Robert Crumb captures the era’s irreverent spirit in full.
