Trump (magazine)
''Trump'' was a glossy magazine of satire and humor, mostly in the forms of comics features and short stories. It was edited by Harvey Kurtzman and published by Hugh Hefner, with only two issues produced in 1957. The first issue appeared in January 1957 and the second came out in March. The magazine's mascot was a trumpeter herald in the style of John Tenniel's ''Alice in Wonderland'' illustrations. Kurtzman began work on ''Trump'' shortly after leaving '' Mad'' following a break with its publisher William M. Gaines. ''Mad'' also lost two of its top cartoonists in the dispute's aftermath, when Will Elder and Jack Davis chose to follow Kurtzman. Wally Wood was also recruited for the ''Trump'' team in the form of an either-or option, but he chose to stay at ''Mad''. Other notable artists, including Al Jaffee and Arnold Roth, appeared in ''Trump''.

Cartooning and other forms of illustration are the most common means of image-making in comics. Photo comics is a form that uses photographic images. Common forms include comic strips, editorial and gag cartoons, and comic books.

Help! (magazine)
''Help!'' was an American satire magazine that was published by James Warren from 1960 to 1965. It was Harvey Kurtzman's longest-running magazine project after leaving '' Mad'' and EC Publications, and during its five years of operation it was chronically underfunded, yet innovative. In starting ''Help!'', Kurtzman brought along several artists from his ''Mad'' collaborations, including Will Elder, Jack Davis, John Severin and Al Jaffee. Kurtzman's assistants included Charles Alverson, Terry Gilliam and Gloria Steinem; the last was helpful in gathering the celebrity comedians who appeared on the covers and the fumetti strips the magazine ran along with more traditional comics and text pieces. Among the then little-known performers in the fumetti were John Cleese, Woody Allen and Milt Kamen; better-known performers such as Orson Bean were also known to participate. Some of the fumetti were scripted by Bernard Shir-Cliff. At ''Help!'', Gilliam met Cleese for the first ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Humbug (magazine)
''Humbug'' is a humor magazine published from 1957 to 1958. Edited by Harvey Kurtzman, the magazine took satirical jabs at movies, television, advertising and various artifacts of popular culture, from cereal boxes to fashion photographs. Nine of the eleven issues were published in a black-and-white comic book-sized format. With fatally accurate irony, Kurtzman delivered his declaration of editorial principles in the first issue: :"We won't write for morons. We won't do anything just to get laughs. We won't be dirty. We won't be grotesque. We won't be in bad taste. We won't sell magazines." Several of the project's contributing artists had previously worked with Kurtzman when he was the editor of ''Mad'', including Wallace Wood, Jack Davis, Al Jaffee and Will Elder. The 32-page first issue (August 1957) featured a front cover by Elder (with the announcement "The End of the World Is Coming" inside a border design depicting contemporary life). Interior artwork was by Elder, Ku ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
