Poor Helpless Comics

By Ed Subitzky. Published by New York Review Comics. 

Softcover, 176 pages, B&W and Colour, 1970s-1990s (2023 printing)

For the entire run of National Lampoon, Ed Subitzky bent, broke, and reimagined what a cartoon could do: A cartoon that hypnotizes you. A cartoon that goes to prison. A cartoon that folds up and flies away. Framed by an interview with Mark Newgarden, this first-ever collection of Subitzky’s work is a portrait of one of the funniest, most prolific humorists of the ’70s and ’80s.
