His impact upon my life is great.You might not know his name but if you're over 40 you know his work. Cartoonist Jack Davis has died at the age of 91. A veteran of the EC Comics staff of the early 1950s, Davis went on to become one of the most prolific caricaturists in the business, with a long run at Mad magazine and decades of drawing distinctive, humorous covers for TV Guide and Time, among many other publications.
You could always recognize his work by the spindly legs and the ridiculous knobbly feet.
