Crumb's 'Book Of Genesis' Rules Bestseller Lists

Posted at 7:16AM Tuesday 09 Feb 2010

Cartoonist R. Crumb has come a long way from his days as a star of the underground comics movement of the 1960s and its taboo-busting focus on sex, drugs and rock and roll. R. Crumb's, The Book of Genesis Illustrated (W.W. Norton), a careful and scholarly comics adaptation of the first book of the bible, has been number one on the New York Times weekly graphic books bestseller list for 16 weeks and on PW's monthly comics bestseller list every month since its publication.
