Robert Crumb, The book of Mr. Natural is interesting in the way they design the characters so simply, but then give the backgrounds and or environments more detail. But also in this comic, they illustrate the black people very crudely. The stories are very quick to read and understand but have a almost messy disorganized feel to them especially in the 3rd comic with the man on the street meditating while Mr. Natural gives away his money and he becomes more agitated. The messy-ness that i feel could be just the amount of black in certain panels. Reading further the comics became explicit and downright revolting, the drawing of the genitalia was bad enough but for the story to continue and him getting off on a baby looking person was the point where I had to stop.
