Will Eldger, the brilliantly funny, talented and influential cartoonist and satirist, has passed away:

It was only a couple months ago that I was admiring his groundbreaking work in the early Mad comic books. I also remember reading Little Annie Fanny in my dad's Playboy magazines. Wow, could he draw!

He made the world of comics a much better place....

Will Elder was indeed one of the comic gods....nobody before or since could load a panel with as much hilarious 'Chicken Fat' as he! The world was a better place with him in it to be sure! Goodbye Will! RIP

WESTPORTALBOOKS ARE SQUINKY BOOKS!
