Kominsky-Crumb didn’t worry about self-flattery. In fact, her darkest secrets and deepest insecurities were all the more fodder for groundbreaking stories. Her exaggerated comix alter ego, Bunch, is self-destructive and grotesque but crackles with the self-deprecating humor and honesty of a cartoonist confident in the story she wants to tell.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCollecting comics from the 1970s through today, \u003ci\u003eLove That Bunch\u003c\/i\u003e is shockingly prescient while still being an authentic story of its era. Kominsky-Crumb was ahead of her time in juxtaposing the contradictory nature of female sexuality with a proud, complicated feminism. Most important, she does so without apology.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOne of the most famous and idiosyncratic cartoonists of our time, Kominsky-Crumb traces her steps from a Beatles-loving fangirl, an East Village groupie, an adult grappling with her childhood, and a 1980s housewife and mother, to a new thirty-page story, “Dream House,” that looks back on her childhood forty years later. \u003ci\u003eLove That Bunch\u003c\/i\u003e will be Kominsky-Crumb’s only solo-authored book in print. Originally published as a book in 1990, this new expanded edition follows her to the present, including an afterword penned by the noted comics scholar Hillary Chute.\u003c\/p\u003e\n                        \u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n                        \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAline Kominsky-Crumb\u003c\/b\u003e was born on Long Island, New York, and is one of the most influential cartoonists of the underground era as the cartoonist behind \u003ci\u003eDirty Laundry Comics\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eArcade\u003c\/i\u003e; a contributor to \u003ci\u003eWimmen’s Commix\u003c\/i\u003e; cofounder of \u003ci\u003eTwisted Sisters\u003c\/i\u003e; editor of the anthology \u003ci\u003eWeirdo\u003c\/i\u003e; and author of the graphic memoir \u003ci\u003eNeed More Love\u003c\/i\u003e.
