from the comixjoint website:Arcade, The Comics Revue #1Only Printing / Spring,1975 / 44 Pages / The Print MintArcade, The Comics Revuewas conceived by co-editors Art Spiegelman and Bill Griffith as a \"comics magazine for adults\" that would showcase the \"best of the old and the best of the new comics.\" The first issue leads off with aTop Twenty Underground Coversaward-winning front cover by Robert Crumb and is followed by contributions from an all-star cast of underground creator legends, including Jim Osborne, Robert Armstrong, Spain Rodriguez, S. Clay Wilson, Kim Deitch, Justin Green, Jay Kinney, Aline Kominsky, Jay Lynch, Victor Moscoso, Willy Murphy, Diane Noomin and Gilbert Shelton.If you only read the first half of my review of the fullArcadeseries, you might think I detest this comic book. But nothing could be further from the truth. I treasure the care and deliberation that Spiegelman and Griffith employed when assembling this beautiful magazine. I enjoy the majority of stories here, especially Lynch\'s \"Nard n\' Pat\" story, Willy Murphy\'s \"Arnold Peck, the Human Wreck\" and Art Spiegelman\'s \"Real Dream.\" Throughout the magazine, the level of artistic quality is superlative and the writing is earnest and often funny, if sometimes overwrought.I don\'t hand out perfect review scores of 10 to just any comic book.Arcadeearned its score with a groundbreaking magazine with very high ambitions.HISTORICAL FOOTNOTES:
