Poor Helpless Comics! by Ed Subitzky

Poor Helpless Comics! by Ed Subitzky

The first-ever collection of comics by Ed Subitzky-comedy writer, National Lampoon legend, Atari spokesperson, "The Impostor" on The David Letterman Show, and an enduring influence on an entire generation of cartoonists and humorists.

For the entire run of National Lampoon, Ed Subitzky bent, broke, and reimagined what a cartoon could do- A cartoon that hypnotizes you. A cartoon that goes to prison. A cartoon that folds up and flies away. Framed by an interview with Mark Newgarden, this first-ever collection of Subitzky's work is a portrait of one of the funniest, most prolific humorists of the '70s and '80s.

Mark Newgarden and Megan Montague Cash created Bow-Wow Bugs a Bug (Harcourt), which won the Gold Award in the Society of Illustrators' Original Art Show in 2007, and other honors. Mark has been a creator of novelties (Garbage Pail Kids), cartoonist (from Raw magazine to the New York Times), writer for TV, film, and multimedia projects (from Microsoft to Cartoon Network), among various and sundry careers. Megan is an illustrator, author, and designer who specializes in work for children. Her clients have ranged from the Museum of Modern Art to Nickelodeon and projects have included award-winning toys, games, paper-engineered products, corporate identities, and exhibit designs.
