What it’s about. Harvey trabaja en un hospital de Cleveland. Su única vía de escape frente a la rutina diaria es discutir sobre todo lo divino y lo humano con sus compañeros de trabajo. Casualmente conoce a Robert Crumb, un diseñador de postales amante de la música que, años después se hace famoso gracias a sus cómics underground. La idea de que el cómic es una forma de arte para adultos lleva a Harvey a hacer una tira cómica, "American Splendor", que es un retrato irónico del estilo de vida de la clase obrera americana. Publicado por primera vez en 1976, el cómic "American Splendor" convirtió a Harvey en un autor de culto durante los años 80.
