Richard Corben interview from Heavy Metal part two

Richard Corben interview Part II
from the July 1981 issue of Heavy Metal

After unsuccessfully trying to establish that Corben's artwork somehow is a reflection of a unique state of deviancy or neurosis, Heavy Metal interviewer Brad Balfour drops the amateur psychoanalysis, and focuses the interview (as he should have done from the start) on Corben's life as an artist. 

There are some interesting observations concerning Corben's reception by the underground comix practitioners of the late 60s and early 70s.....
