I know, I'm late, but I only just found out that Al Jaffee died this year. He had a stunning career, and only retired at 99!!! I loved MAD magazine as a kid and his contributions, but it took reading Wikipedia just now to find out what kind of a genius he was. R.I.P.

(To her panicked mother) “Would you like to try calling [the little girl Kathy] out of the apartment [where she’s with the killer]?” RIP #AlJaffee, an all time #SnappyAnswerToStupidQuestions champion question. #BetweenMidnightAndDawn #NoirAlley #TCMParty

The art in this book is *spectacular*, styled a bit like those ultra-busy #AlJaffee *#MADMagazine* spreads, or the #MossEisleyCantina, or the wild alien scenes from #BenHatke's YA classic #ZitaTheSpaceGirl kids' graphic novels:

But *Justice Warriors* is grosser, busier, and more frenetic than any of them. As Bors describes it, they created "a chaotic mutant-infested city that tops the most sensory-overloading cities in all of comics and animation."
