  • Best comic related bio ever

    Author Bill Schelly has written an excellent biography of one of the most creative artists/writers/editors in the history of comic books. Extensively researched, even-handed in its approach to Harvey Kurtzman as a comics "genius", Kurtzman is also portrayed as complicated, contradictory, and completely human. In addition to learning a great deal about the creator of Mad Magazine, readers will also learn much about the early history of comic books, of Playboy, and of Jim Warren's magazines (Help, Famous Monsters, Creepy, etc.). I cannot give this book an any higher recommendation that to write that it is a must read for those who love comic books as well as for the general reader. Kudos, Schelly, you did great!!

  • Enjoyed it and recommend it even if you’re not a comic book or cartoon buff!

    This book is informative and a joy to read! Being a fan of Mad Magazine for a very long time this book explores the truly genius, talent and artistic wonder of Harvey Kurtzman, the man , the myth, the legend behind the process that brought this periodical of satire, laughs and humor to light along with a career filled with phenomenal creativity! A hero in the cartoon world as well as a keen observer of human nature and life styles….Genius!
