Never met him, love his work. I do remember as a kid looking at the girls in Playboy, reasoning the comic at the end. That's about it.

It spawned many immitators, like Cracked and Frantic, etc., but these were never quite as good.<br />I don't know if you are aware of our own humour pioneer, Viz, which started in the late 80's, but this too begat a myriad of immitators.<br />My favourite comic obviously influenced by Mad was Not Brand Echhh! Forbush Man is very similar to Captain Klutz.<br />Anyway, thanks for guest-posting some of your pearls of wisdom.John Pitthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08035300858247327343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3740495193314269367.post-11007664320638956062015-04-24T02:47:48.398+01:002015-04-24T02:47:48.398+01:00Yup, I know - but they're also part of your co...Yup, I know - but they're also part of your collection.Kidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07224781868125924337noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3740495193314269367.post-19092335846802754842015-04-24T02:40:46.342+01:002015-04-24T02:40:46.342+01:00That group,of books at the end are all books by Sc...That group,of books at the end are all books by Schelly!Barry Pearlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03833042323353543770noreply@blogger.com
