The death of Christine (Perfect) McVie will get plenty of attention elsewhere. This is a place where you will read that Robert Crumb’s wife Aline has passed away.
As cartoonists, Robert and Aline were as close as it got to a “John and Yoko marriage.”
Aline’s passing comes not long after the death of Bill Griffith’s wife Diane Noomin. Friends with Aline, Diane was also an underground cartoonist.
Re pennies from heaven whatever you think of it, has one of the most sublime dance numbers in all of film(#1 gk in sitr). When I read your Aline notice, immediate response, oh f@#$. Between all the autobiographical comix he/she/they did I felt as though I knew them (and aline’s mother). finally Franklin is trying to tutor Curtis in the funnies this week.
