I'm not terribly familiar with Crumb - my only knowledge of him comes
from the movie, which I watched some time last summer.

But I specifically remember seeing in the movie a Crumb strip that
involved a black woman being made by white men to crawl halfway down a
toilet.  Recent comparisons of the Trainspotting and GR toilet scenes
brought this to mind.  (And to tie in to yet another thread, wasn't the
Crumb movie made by David Lynch?)
