    He will be missed. He was a great cartoonist.

      Yes, he absolutely will.
      That magazine was a gem in its heyday. Pretty sure I've got some old copies kicking around somewhere ...
      I really enjoyed his "Snappy Answers to Stupid Questions."

        I have a "Spy vs Spy" edition. Used to love MAD magazine.

        One of my favorite articles from MAD was the "43 Man Squamish" and "The Potrzebie System of Weights And Measures"
