http://CartoonSNAP.com BIG NEWS for Harvey Kurtzman fans! The long-awaited illustrated biography of Harvey Kurtzman is finally in bookstores!

What a treasure! I first got turned on to Kurtzman around 1986, when his "Jungle Book" was reprinted. When his "Hey Look" collection (of pre-MAD one-page gag comics) came out, it instantly became my favorite book in the world, and my constant cartooning inspiration. It has never left the number one spot on my "Greatest Books Ever" list.

Want to look through the book before you run out and buy it? I just made a video showing my clumsy hands pawing through the whole thing! Take a look at all the rare art and wonderful cartoony delights in the video below.

  • I Miss "Hey Look!".... it was one of the wittiest comic strips

  • R.I.P harvey thank you for the memories

  • Well, you've sold me! Amazon here I come. Really like the way the Little Annie Fanny layouts are printed on top of the finished pages. Brilliant.

  • Can you come to my house and turn the pages for me? I'm really lazy.

  • Just putting it unto my Amazon cart! Man, I wish someone would publish a decent art book on Mr. Wally Wood. I was disappointed with the one entitled, "Against the Grain".

  • You've sold me - I want it!!!

  • Thanks a lot!!! I am so getting this! such great piece for inspiration!!!
