Clicky to embiggen… Well, since this is the whole article I guess it doesn’t qualify as a “sneak peek”, but here it is. Not my usual MAD style but a fun departure on a rare “not a movie or TV parody” job. I thought the feature needed a painted look. Article written by Barry Liebmann. Speaking of movie parodies, check out the 8 page tour-de-force “Twilight” parody (all 5 movies!) in this issue written by Desmond Devlin with art by terrific Aussie illustrator Anton Emdin. It almost makes me wish I’d seen the movies or read the books so I knew what the hell they… READ MORE

The fine folks at MAD Magazine tell me that Bo Confidential, the book I illustrated for them several years ago under a nightmarish deadline, is now available as a digital download through the MAD app on the iPad for the ridiculously exorbitant low price of $1.99 (cheap). There are eventual plans of making it available on other platforms as a regular book download (i.e. the Kindle Fire, Nook color, etc) but no timeframe on that. It is cool that the MAD app is adding things like this to the mix of available content on the iPad. They already have made special issues like the MAD… READ MORE

MAD continues it’s “MAD’s Greatest Artists” book series with the incomparable Mort Drucker. This hardcover beauty will be available Oct. 23rd, and can be preordered now on Amazon.

Obviously it’s not a “complete” collection of Mort’s MAD work . . . having been in over 400 issues that would need many volumes. This is a selection of Mort’s best work, picked by someone who ought to know- Mort himself. There is also a great pull out color poster. This book celebrates the work… READ MORE
