Harvey Pekar

摘要

Harvey pekar, who died at his homernin Cleveland Heights, Ohio, on July 12 at the age of 70, was one of a handful of veteran underground comic-book creators-including Robert Crumb, with whom he collaborated, and Art Spiegelman-who laid the foundation for the flourishing graphic-novel scene today.rnHarvey, an autodidact who could draw only stick figures, recognized that there was no intrinsic reason comic books could not explore the same human terrain as prose literature.
