The Planet that went Ape

I'm just amazed at the level of detail in Drucker's work here. This was kind of before my time, but it seems like the eighties stuff Drucker did for Mad was a bit looser and less complex.

I was a bigger Cracked fan as a kid because of Bill Ward and John Severin, but just going back and looking at Drucker's stuff at the height of his powers, he did have a pretty impressive body of work and a real flair for melding caricature into a more realistically rendered scene.

I love that issue! I always preferred Angelo Torres' art to Mort Drucker's and had hoped that a TV series satire would have been done. I know cracked did one but a MAD one to compliment issue 157 would have been nice.
