In this rip-roaring retrospective of the influential Mad magazine cartoonist, Basil Wolverton' s often-warped imagination combines with his outlandishly wacky visual humor to fascinate and delight. It collects the ultra-rare treasures Scoop Scuttle, Mystic Moot, Bingbang Buster, and Jumpin' Jupiter - as they' ve never been seen before! Due to the rock-bottom printing methods of ten-cent comic books, Wolverton' s intricate line work was routinely obscured, and often obliterated. In this collection, every effort has been made to restore the art to its original splendor, and to at last present the uniquely detailed graphics of this justly revered comic book master.
Basil Wolverton was born near Medford, Oregon in 1909 and died in 1978. His Fantagraphics-published books include Basil Wolverton' s Culture Corner and The Wolverton Bible, and his work is featured in Supermen!: The First Wave of Comic Book Heroes 1936-1941. Greg Sadowski is a writer, editor, and designer (Creeping Death from Neptune, Brain Bats of Venus, B. Krigstein, Supermen!, Four Color Fear) living on the Jersey shore.
