I think he signs it and IDs himself in the strip.<br><br>I was looking it up because of some comment on a web page about a Crumb strip about "J-words." I assume the guy was talking about Jews. I tried several searches and never got a satisfactory Crumb strip about Jews.<br>I wondered what this take was? He's Gentile married to a Jew. He did an Bible, Genesis take.<br><br>TAG has a Gould connection. Shel was Gould's big re-packager for Pacific comics and of course there is no TAG without Shel.MrGoodson2http://www.blogger.com/profile/02329640961760572269noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2387430046438799729.post-70152791205492935012011-01-21T16:11:45.198-08:002011-01-21T16:11:45.198-08:00I guess his name is Ed Piskor.

But it also says that he was born in 1982, and the incident in the strip takes place in 1968. Piskor must just be the artist as he's too young to have written it.Tom Moonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11624247648988106639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2387430046438799729.post-75004454509691037002011-01-21T16:50:41.587-08:002011-01-21T16:50:41.587-08:00Ah, further research points to Jay Lynch as the li...Ah, further research points to Jay Lynch as the likely author.
