This weeks Monday MADness is a look at the original pencil roughs from the movie parody of “Superman Returns” written by MAD‘s Maddest Writer Dick DeBartolo and originally appearing in MAD #468, August 2006. Incidentally I got to meet Superman himself, Brandon Routh, at a Warner Brothers/DC Entertainment event last summer at San Diego Comic con: I told him I drew him in the MAD Magazine parody of his movie, to which he replied “What’s MAD Magazine?” READ MORE

Q: Are you going to make an update of your poster of the presidents of the U.S.? A: No. I still have a lot of those left over that did not sell. I’m not going to print it all over again just to add one more face. I thought about looking into making a sticker or something to put on the ones already printed, but as they didn’t really sell all that well that seems like a waste of time and money. Thanks to Dominick Zeillinger for the question. If you have a question you want answered for the mailbag about cartooning, illustration, MAD Magazine,… READ MORE

The International Society of Caricature Artists is a worldwide organization of caricaturists that welcomes all practitioners of the art form, from live street artists to gig/event artists to illustrators to fine artists and everywhere in between. If you do caricature, you are part of their family. Every year they have a big convention/competition somewhere in the U.S., where hundreds of caricaturists from all over the planet gather and draw each other silly for 5 days, eventually voting on winners in many different categories and crowning a “Caricaturist of the Year” (aka the “Golden Nosey”). They also have a lineup of speakers and presenters. This year… READ MORE
