DESPAIR
Despair
Print Mint (1976)
Despair is Robert Crumb’s first existential diatribe about the perils and shittiness of modern life in America. Most of the stories are deceptively clever and provide some classic Crumb, including “It’s The Ruff Tuff Creampuff” and “Fuzzy The Bunny in The Same Old Crap.” However, the lead story, “It’s Really Too Bad,” jettisons the cleverness and just mainlines Crumb’s bitter perspective about American life.
