[7] Kominsky-Crumb was introduced to underground cartoonists Spain Rodriguez and Kim Deitch by former Fugs drummer Ken Weaver, who was living in Tucson at the same time.

After she and Diane Noomin had a falling out with Trina Robbins and other members of the collective, they started their own title, Twisted Sisters.

[6] Kominsky-Crumb later claimed that a large part of her break with the Wimmen's Comix group was over feminist issues and particularly over her relationship with Robert Crumb, whom Robbins particularly disliked.

Around this time, Kominsky-Crumb began calling her comics avatar "The Bunch," a reference to the similarly named Crumb character.

Her editorial reign was known as "Twisted Sisters", reviving that title;[13] Noomin was a frequent Weirdo contributor during this period, which also featured Kominsky-Crumb's own comics.

[6] Aline had long been an avowed Francophile, while Robert had become especially disgusted with American culture, and they believed it would be a better environment for their daughter.

[16] In 2018, Kominsky-Crumb's Love That Bunch, which was originally published in 1990,[6] was expanded by Drawn & Quarterly with new comics and an introduction written by Hillary Chute.
