After years of speculation, R. Crumb has finished his “Genesis project.” According to his official website, the graphic novel is 201 pages and scheduled for release this fall.

Here’s Crumb describing the project during a Time Magazine interview in 2005: “I was fooling around with Adam and Eve one day. Doodling about Adam and Eve. At first I did this satirical take off on Adam and Eve — lots of jokey asides and Jewish slang because they’re Jewish right? God is Jewish … Finally I got over fooling around and I realized I just had to tell it straight.”

According to his website, Crumb is considering a collaboration with his wife Aline Kominsky-Crumb for his next project. (Image and link via Robot 6)
