Synopsis
There scarcely was an underground comics world before Robert Crumb’s classic solo first issue ofZap. By Zap #2, he had begun assembling a Seven Samurai of the best, the fiercest, and the most stylistically diversified cartoonists to come out of the countercultural kiln. All of them were extremists of one sort or another, from biker-gang member Rodriguez to Christian surfer Griffin, but somehow they produced a decades-long collaboration: a mind-blowing anthology of abstract hallucination, throat-slashing social satire, and shocking sexual excess, that made possible the ongoing wave of alternative cartoonists like Daniel Clowes, Chris Ware, and Charles Burns. The Complete Zap Comix collects every issue of Zap ― every cover and every story, and even the Zam mini comic jam among the Zap artists ― in a five-volume, slipcased hardcover set. It will also include the 17th unpublished issue with work by Crumb, Moscoco, Wilson, Rodriguez, Shelton, Mavrides, and Williams. Plus, an introduction by founder R. Crumb and an oral history of Zap by Patrick Rosenkranz. Zap is the most historically and aesthetically important comics series ever published.
Also included exclusively in this boxed set is a portfolio of Zap covers by the eight artists, replicated from high resolution scans and proofs, and specially printed for this edition on acid-free, 100% cotton fine-art paper utilizing archival pigment inks.

Hardcover. Etat : New. Limited Edition. STILL SEALED! LONG SOLD OUT! VERY RARE! Zap is the most aesthetically important comics series ever published. A bold claim demonstrated within this gorgeous slipcased Limited Edition. It is a 5 volume set which comes with a portfolio of art covers. Sealed in its slipcase, this is the complete Zap collection. It has a unique extra; an unpublished 17th issue. Another volume relates the history of Zap by the artists themselves, PLUS a volume of archival prints of all 17 Zap covers. Robert Crumb, Rick Griffin, Paul Mavrides, Victor Moscoso, Spain Rodriguez, Gilbert Shelton, Robert Williams, and S. Clay Wilson . Robert Crumb kicked off the underground comics movement with his classic solo first issue of Zap in 1968. By Zap #2, he had begun assembling seven of the best, the fiercest, and the most stylistically diversified cartoonists to come out of the countercultural kiln. All of them were extremists of one sort or another, a dream team of the wildest, most technically skilled and stylistically diverse cartoonists to come out of the countercultural scene. They were a ragtag bunch of fascinating, wide-ranging personalities who somehow came together to produce a fruitful, decades-long collaboration. This is a mind-blowing anthology of abstract hallucination, searing social satire, and shocking sexual excess that inspired the subsequent wave of alternative cartoonists like Daniel Clowes, Chris Ware, and Charles Burns. The Complete Zap Comix collects every issue of Zap each cover and story, and even the Zam mini comic jam among the Zap artists in a sleekly designed, five-volume slipcased hardcover set. This gorgeous box set includes an introduction by founder R. Crumb and an oral history of Zap by noted comics historian Patrick Rosenkranz. It also comes with a limited-edition portfolio of Zap covers by the eight artists in high resolution scans specially printed on acid-free, 100% cotton fine-art paper printed with heavily pigmented inks. Say it again; Zap is the most historically and aesthetically important comics series ever published. This is one mighty collection for the serious archivist, or indeed for any collector of graphics. It weighs in at 22lbs/10kg. THIS IS AN ESSENTIAL LIMITED EDITION FOR THE SERIOUS COLLECTOR. N° de réf. du vendeur ABE-1617037402226
