A Limited Edition Art Print (with art by Jason Edmiston; 16/175; measures 18" x 24" [46 x 61 cm]) (Learn More) Mad, the classic humor magazine ("Humor in a jugular vein") from the 1950s to the present. This comic was published by Bill Gaines (William Gaines) through his company, EC Comics (E.C. Comics), which he inherited from his father in 1947. It was originally a comic book edited by Harvey Kurtzman, and it was one of the famous EC Comics (E.C. Comics) that were banned in the mid-1950s, due to excessive horror content. At that point, publisher Gaines canceled most of his comic book titles, and turned Mad into a magazine with its 24th issue. Unfortunately, he and Kurtzman soon had a falling out, and Al Feldstein, who had been Gaines' writing partner on the Mad comic books (and Feldstein had edited Panic, EC's own imitation of Mad), took over, and the magazine became one of the great success stories of the 1950s and 1960s (led by its trademark character, Alfred E. Neuman, a goofy looking guy whose slogan was "What, me worry?"), with a circulation in the millions at its peak. Gaines never allowed any advertising of any kind in the magazine! In recent years, there was a "Mad" TV show which perfectly captures the spirit of the magazine! Artist: Jason Edmiston Important Added Info: Note that this art print has been hand-numbered 16/175! Condition: fine. The limited edition art print is in excellent condition and it displays quite well! Learn More about condition grades
