Above - excellent biography of Will Elder
If you have read Chicken Fat for long you know I have a special warmth inside for me the old vintage MAD comic book and its early artists. …. Or is that warmth just a ball of upchuck ready to projectile itself out?
As I was saying, early MAD still remains in my mind and still influences my twisted way of thinking. Which brings up the name of this blog CHICKEN FAT, which I swiped from Will Elder (1921-2008). Will died May 15 this year. Will is credited for setting the standards of MAD art.
These two YouTubes are tributes of Willie sort of. Just click on and enjoy:
