Robert Crumb (Filadelfia, Pensilvania, 30 de agosto de 1943) es un historietista, ilustrador y músico estadounidense. Fue uno de los fundadores del cómic underground y es quizá la figura más destacada de dicho movimiento.
Robert Crumb - R. Crumb in short - was a spearhead of the American underground comix movement that emerged during the 1960s, and has remained one of the most relevant creators of alternative comics since. He became a cult figure through taboo-breaking stories strictly intended for adults.
In the mid-1970s, he contributed to the Arcade anthology; following the decline of the underground, he moved towards biographical and autobiographical subjects while refining his drawing style, a heavily crosshatched pen-and-ink style inspired by late 19th- and early 20th-century cartooning.
