Mr. Natural

Mr. Natural is a comic character created by cartoonist Robert Crumb in the late 1960s. He is depicted as a laid-back, barefoot, bearded guru-like figure who embodies self-awareness, spontaneity, and a carefree attitude toward life. Often depicted in humorous and satirical stories, Mr. Natural explores themes of spirituality, personal growth, and counterculture values. His laid-back demeanor and philosophical musings serve as a critique of both societal norms and spiritual pretensions, making him a memorable symbol of the era’s quest for authenticity and inner freedom through humor and art.
