One of the great American artists, IMO, and one gets the sense his noteworthiness is increased by several orders of magnitude by his steadfastness in the face of "sell out" pressure. I think about the artist behind Calvin and Hobbes every time I see some unlicensed Calvin urinating on some automobile manufacturer logo, or kneeling at some religious symbol.
