The Art of Harvey Kurtzman: The Mad Genius of Comics

Art of Harvey Kurtzman

I bought this book last week from Strange Adventures, and boy, am I ever glad I did! The selection of artwork, the design of the book, the writing is top-notch, and the print quality are all jaw-droppingly gorgeous. The Art of Harvey Kurtzman: The Mad Genius of Comics by Denis Kitchen and Paul Buhle ranks among one of my favorite cartoon/comic-related books ever. If you're a fan of the old Hey Look!, Two-Fisted Tales, Frontline Combat, Help, Trump, and MAD comics, then you'll love this amazing book on the life and art of the awesomely gifted artist and editor known as Harvey Kurtzman.
