From the back cover:
"The Complete Crumb Comics Vol. 5: Happy Hippy Comix! continues the multi-volume series comprising the complete works of the legendary cartoonist R. Crumb, one of America’s most original, trenchant, and uncompromising satirists. The series will include the earliest, heretofore unpublished comic strips, as well as his sketchbooks, underground comix, dramatic and autobiographical strips, and his classic cartoon creations, Fritz the Cat and Mr. Natural. From Crumb’s Introduction:
"It was a crazy time... fall of ’68, I was in New York... I remember that... I had suddenly become a phenomenon - another hippy-counterculture personality - Mr. Keep-on-Truckin’, Mr. Zap Comix - if you were a hip college student you had to have a Zap comic next to your dope stash. I didn’t have any money, but I had glory. I was America’s best-loved underground cartoonist. I was cool.. I was ultra-hip! Yeah, sure. ..."
