As well as the terrific CRACKED work, with celeb likenesses par excellance (the only time I think they ever equalled MAD), he did great, gritty Western stuff for Charlton. Thanks and RIP, John. -Craig

Feb 14 12 5:02 PM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	I wondered every now and then how old the guy must be. I absolutely loved his work in CRACKED. I didn't even know he did anything else. In my book, he was as great as or better than anybody at MAD. This is a sad day. A perfect Monster has no end...
