|title=The Weirdo Years 1981-'91
|author=R Crumb
|rating=4
|genre=Graphic Novels
|summary=Books are better than magazines – discuss. Certainly for the connoisseur of the contents of culturally important titles from the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s it must be a lively debate. I remember my collection of ''New Worlds'' editions and how often the editors would take us through a long novel over seven or eight parts, then dump a 'sorry, due to space requirements this last part of what you've cherished for months is abridged – but wait for the novel version soon' on us. Is it better to be a completist, and witness everything the original editors deemed worthy (or just had lying around) or should we cherry-pick and note the best? This hefty hunk of book goes for the latter, anyway, taking [[:Category:Robert Crumb|R Crumb]]'s output for the ''Weirdo'' comic, as edited by R Crumb, then someone else, then Mrs R Crumb, and giving us everything, warts and all.
