My Encounter with Art Legend Gahan Wilson

wilson-eye-doctor

Today, legendary cartoonist and monster lover Gahan Wilson turns 86. If you’re unfamiliar with his work, I encourage you to at least do a Google image search and check out his macabre, occasionally disturbing but always outright funny one-panel cartoons (like the one above). I can’t recommend his work highly enough.

And if you head over to the StarWarp Concepts blog, today’s post is about the time when, as a book editor, I got to work with him on a pair of cartoon collections: Gahan Wilson’s Gravediggers’ Party and Gahan Wilson’s Monster Party.

Happy birthday, Mr. Wilson!
