Reviews

This book focuses on Glenn Bray's trove of comic art, but his idiosyncratic collector's eye takes in all kinds of cultural detritus: girlie pinups and rock posters, pro wrestling and movie monsters. Mr. Bray started collecting comics originals in 1965, and Blighted is a gallery-like Who's Who of underground, aboveground and no-ground cartoonists: Harvey Kurtzman and R. Crumb, Virgil Finlay and Gary Panter, George Herriman and Chris Ware. It also shows how an eccentric yet passionate eye can change the way we think about art.--Dana Jennings "The New York Times"
