* BlackJezebelStereotype: [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angelfood_McSpade Angelfood McSpade]], one of Creator/RobertCrumb's most notorious creations, may be the trope codifier, being a black woman with large exposed breasts, large buttocks, and almost no clothing save for some jewelry and a skirt made from palm leaves. The narration regularly describes her voracious sexual appetite, and claims that she has to be confined to "the wilds of darkest Africa" because civilization would collapse if she were allowed to run free. Crump had a ParodyRetcon in 2004 claiming she was a criticism of the stereotype, but the fact that he retired her in the 1970s really didn't help.

Robert Dennis Crumb (born August 30, 1943) is an UndergroundComics creator best known for ''Zap Comix'', "Keep on Truckin", ''ComicBook/FritzTheCat'', ''Mr. Natural'' and the album cover for Big Brother and the Holding Company's ''Music/CheapThrills (1968)''. He began his career working for Topps and the American Greetings corporation; there, he drew several of the earliest ''Fritz the Cat'' comics and the graphic novel ''Oggie and the Beanstalk''. He had some work published by Harvey Kurtzman in ''Help!'' magazine, but [[EverybodyMustGetStoned experiences with LSD]] led him to create some of his best-known comics, which he either published himself or submitted to other underground publications.
Some of this work earned him a lot of criticism from other underground cartoonists and social commentators. Works depicting {{Blackface}}-inspired imagery and [[NWordPrivileges use of the N-word]] earned Crumb false accusations of racism, even though the comics were actually a ''satire'' of racism, not racist work in of itself. Harder to deny, however, was Crumb's [[HeManWomanHater rampant misogyny]]: his comics frequently featured women being beaten up and raped, and even enjoying being sexually assaulted. Crumb commentators have associated this viewpoint with Crumb's then-unhappy marriage, noting that after remarrying and having a daughter, Crumb has drawn significantly more feminist-themed material since the 1980s.
