Underground Cartooning Course, by Justin Green (1972).

#justingreen #binkybrown Green’s work was radically self-revealing, hilarious, and guilelessly profane. Condolences to his family and friends - his wife, Carol Tyler, is also a great cartoonist. https://www.instagram.com/p/Cc_hx90Pei_/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

#professionallyoffended #justingreen #binkybrown Charlotte Salomon actually invented the confessional autobiographical comic thirty years before “Binky Brown,” but her work wasn’t fully published till the 80s - in America, it fell to Green to invent it from his own experience. Everyone from R. Crumb to Julie Doucet has been swimming in his wake. https://www.instagram.com/p/Cc_fw5nvjzA/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

#mustreadingforneuroticsofallcreeds #justingreen #binkybrown Sad to hear of the passing of Justin Green, whose “Binky Brown Meets the Holy Virgin Mary” is one of the most significant American comics of the 20th century. https://www.instagram.com/p/Cc_fKeHPBF5/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Green, Justin. Binky Brown Meets the Virgin Mary (San Francisco: McSweeney's Books, 2009). Print. 1. I will not forget Binkybrown 2. Binky Brown is the first graphic novel in English, in my opinion, since it was originally published in 1972, decades befor Maus. 3. 1950s Catholicism, psychology, and sexuality are all theme's in Green's provocative, young adult memoir.
