Info autore
Sergio Aragonés is the most honored cartoonist alive, having won every major award in the field, including the National Cartoonists Society's Reuben Award, and the Will Eisner Hall of Fame Award. Sergio's first contribution -- "A Mad Look at the U.S. Space Effort" -- appeared in
Mad #76, cover-dated January of 1963. For that same issue, he also contributed the cover gag (the first of many) and his first "Marginal Thinking" cartoons to be printed in the magazine's margins. He has since appeared in every issue of
Mad except for one and has done thousands of his unique pantomime cartoons. He also produced 16 best-selling original
Mad paperback books. Sergio teamed with wordsmith
Mark Evanier to bring forth the adventures of
Groo the Wanderer.
Groo quickly became one of the longest-running "creator-owned" comic book properties, outlasting many of the companies that published it. Sergio and Mark have also produced other comics, including
Fanboy,
Boogeyman,
Magnor,
Blair Witch? and an acclaimed series in which together, they trash famous characters:
Sergio Aragonés Massacres Marvel,
Sergio Aragonés Destroys DC, and
Sergio Aragonés Stomps Star Wars. For their comic book work, they have received multiple Eisner awards.
