{"product_id":"my-gun-is-the-jury-and-other-stories-9798875001000","title":"My Gun Is the Jury! and Other Stories","description":"Jack Davis and Wallace Wood's crazed cartooning in \u003cem\u003eMad\u003c\/em\u003e changed the art form, and comedy itself, forever. But their gonzo parody work in \u003cem\u003eMad\u003c\/em\u003e's sister satire title, \u003cem\u003ePanic\u003c\/em\u003e, published at the same time, is less well-known. To invert that injustice, this volume of The Fantagraphics EC Artists' Library presents all their zany, pun-packed \u003cem\u003ePanic\u003c\/em\u003e lampoonery, especially their pomposity-puncturing movie parodies, including Davis's \"My Gun Is the Jury!\" \"Come Back, Little Street Car!\", \"A Star Is Corn\" and Wood's \"African Scream!\", \"Gone With The Widow,\" and \"20,000 Leaks Under The Sea.\" \u003cp\u003eThese visual volleys are verbalized by Al Feldstein (editor of \u003cem\u003ePanic\u003c\/em\u003e, later editor of \u003cem\u003eMad\u003c\/em\u003e) and Jack Mendelsohn (prolific cartoonist and writer whose non-comics credits include TV's \u003cem\u003eLaugh-In\u003c\/em\u003e and The Beatles' \u003cem\u003eYellow Submarine\u003c\/em\u003e). But the laughs don't languish. Also included is the never-before-reprinted \"V-Vampires,\" a riotous romp written by the legendary Harvey Kurtzman and drawn by Wood that vanished after its initial appearance more than 70 years ago! \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jack Davis,Wallace Wood\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Fantagraphics Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/24\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 280\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.30lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.00h x 7.10w x 1.20d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798875001000\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eDavis, Jack:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - \u003cstrong\u003eJack Davis\u003c\/strong\u003e (1924-2016, b.
