Monday MADness: Honoring Angelo!

I was extremely remiss in not posting about this right after it happened. The National Cartoonists Society honored wonderful, longtime member of MAD‘s “Usual Gang of Idiots” Angelo Torres with the prestigious Milton Caniff Lifetime Achievement Award on October 24th in a ceremony in New York City. The Caniff is a big deal, and Angelo greatly deserve the recognition for a long and fantastic career both inside and outside the pages of MAD.

Unfortunately I could not be there, as I was in Orlando on our annual family trip to visit The Mouse and other friends at the time. Several of Angelo’s admirers sent videos in to congratulate him… here’s mine:

A great honor for a great artist. Congratulations, Angelo!!
