Gahan Wilson

    Gahan Wilson è stato un autore americano la cui arte era caratterizzata da uno stile giocosamente grottesco e un umorismo nero. Il suo lavoro, spesso paragonato a quello di Charles Addams, si distingueva da quello di Addams per essere più contemporaneo, crudo e confrontazionale. Il lavoro di Wilson aveva spesso uno scopo preciso, infondendo i suoi fumetti e la prosa con un intento satirico. Apparendo in pubblicazioni di spicco, le sue creazioni riflettevano una visione del mondo che vedeva il mondo come oscuro e pericoloso, ma occasionalmente divertente.

      Fine; Signed. See scans. Signed First edition and first printing [stated] of the softcover edition, which was issued simultaneously with the hardcover. New Richard Marek, 1978. Flat signed by Wilson on the ffep. Quarto, illustrated wraps, 125 pp. Fine condition; flawless. First edition of the seventh collection of cartoons by the master of the macabre, who has been called a hybrid of Charles Addams and Woody Allen - but that seems to me to fall well short of what he is. Born in 1930, Wilson gained fame for his uniquely chilling - yet funny - cartoons in Playboy Magazine. Wilson runs his gamut of topics and mood in this one. Scarce as the first and signed. L-32
