Sergio Aragonés drew his way into the pages and margins of MAD magazine in 1962 after he emigrated from Mexico and made money reciting poetry in Spanish. Still learning English, the then 24-year-old cartoonist pitched drawings and ideas to editors of a magazine dominated by humor that bit, poked and prodded. When they asked for more, Aragonés came back the next day with 20 more ideas and a series of drawings so fresh the ink was barely dry. The world-known Ojai artist has drawn in every issue of MAD since except for that one time he traveled to Europe and miscalculated his deadlines. The partnership, he said Wednesday, hasn't ended despite confirmed reports the magazine will no longer be sold on news stands. "MAD has gone through a lot of changes through the years. It's still there," Aragonès said. MAD magazine is coming off newsstands and will stop publishing new content in its bimonthly issues in October. (Photo: TOM KISKEN/THE STAR) But as of October, the 67-year-old publication that has satirized governments, movies, wars, fads, foods, revolutions, adolescence, death and life itself will print only best-of material in bimonthly issues.

Leaders who are shaping the future of business in creative ways. New workplaces, new food sources, new medicine--even an entirely new economic system. The three constants in life are death, taxes, and human stupidity. Spya never-ending battle between black and white-clad, but otherwise identical spies. The cartoon, created by Antonio Prohia, began as a satirical commentary on the absurdity of the Cold War, but given how the U. Now, Mad is showing its appreciation with the coffee table Mad Spy Vs Spy: An Explosive Celebration, Spy vs. Spy: An Explosive Celebration. We have a similar policy at Mad regarding artists who speak ill of us, but probably the less said about that, the better.

  • Comic-Con ‘18 1 CAPS Invades 0 San Diego
    Summer 2018 CON SEASON THE COMIC ART PROFESSIONAL SOCIETY President’s Message Greetings, CAPSers! Before I accepted the position of President, I sought advice from a number of my predecessors and other long-term CAPS members. One of the suggestions I heard was that CAPS may have outlived its usefulness, that all the things it was created to do are now done online. I don’t believe that’s entirely true. Yes, the Internet allows us to continue that mission and broaden our reach beyond the geographic boundaries of Southern California. While our local group is always the center of CAPS, there’s no reason why we can’t or shouldn’t increase our Associate Membership, and the internet can facilitate that. Social Media offers incredible opportunities for networking, sharing information, and socializing among cartoonists, but I believe that this merely alters the methods and priorities of CAPS, but it doesn’t eliminate our purpose. In fact, one aspect of our mission is now more important than ever: actual face-to-face interaction, getting to know each other in real life. This is why we are experimenting with involvement with conventions. In the past, it never made sense for us to have a table at cons, because we are not a “consumer facing” organization; apart from hosting members at a booth for sales, sketches and signings, we don’t have a lot to offer the public as an organization. Handing out brochures at a table is not going to reach many people who are eligible for membership. But as conventions become more expensive to table at, and as the number of conventions continues to multiply, it seems that a CAPS table is a good way to provide our members with space that they might not otherwise have.

Presidential Scholars WSJ.com LBJ LIBRARY PHOTO BY ARNOLD NEWMAN “I am very proud to welcome you to the White House as the first “Presidential Scholars.” I congratulate you, and I congratulate your parents and your teachers for their part in producing your talents for our times. ... You are here because of what you have accomplished, in your own right, and what you have the capacity to accomplish in the future in your own right. You have excelled in the scholarship of your class of 1964. You have the potential to excel even more in the citizenship of your country of 1974 or 1984 or 1994. I have congratulated you. I want now to challenge you – to challenge you to develop and apply that quality of excellence which is within you. … I believe the destiny of your generation, and your Nation, is a rendezvous with excellence. … You are younger than most of the earth’s quarrels, and you are older than most of the earth’s governments. You are younger than most of man’s ignorance, and older than much of his knowledge. … [This] is your challenge – to give your talents and your time in our land and in all lands to cleaning away the blight, to sweeping away the shoddiness, to wiping away the injustices and the inequities of the past so that all men may live together in a great world community of decency and of excellence.” – President Lyndon B.
