The first new issue of Zap Comix in over five years! This is the fifteenth historic issue of the comic started in 1968 by Robert Crumb, who drew the two first issues (#0 and #1). Zap Comix introduced readers to the new genre of Underground Comix, and the first five issues defined the scope of the new art, inspired by but completely detached from any previous comic style. Zap artists became the reference for a new generation of cartoonists, lifting them from the confines of the Comics Code to the rank of recognized art form. This issue includes work by Robert Crumb, S. Clay Wilson, Gilbert Shelton, Spain Rodriguez, Victor Moscoso, Paul Mavrides -- and a jam comic from all six, plus Robert Williams! Designed to be read in both directions, with great cover art on both covers.

Zap 15 Does art belong in comics? - 05/20/2005

by Dave McGlinnen

If this comic could teach it would make me study northern renaissance masters such as Bosch and Bruegel. Robert Crumb you ole crumudgen the story with you and Charles is touching and fabulously rendered. All the tortured cross-hatching a fan would want. Gilbert Shelton W.W. is still a pleasing and hilarious effort. The flip-cover is fun and the whole product is well worth the S 4.95 cover price. Thanks for such a cool comic
