Long before Diddy sampled them, Beats referred to a group of writer friends, and later, a literary and cultural movement that spanned from the early 1940’s to the mid 1960’s. The Beats: A Graphic History is the story of the beat generation, characterized by nonconformity and defiance of conventional writing, as told by comic legend Harvey Pekar and his artistic collaborator Ed Piskor. Together they effectively represent the essence of the beat era with their stylish approach and smart graphic format.
