Sick #64, 2 of 3

Here's the second part of Sick # 64 from December 1968. The first part is here.

Bill Kresse did this.

This mostly existed as a showcase for the artist's caricatures, similarly to how many Saturday Night Live sketches are a compilation of impressions loosely based around a sketch.

Don't know why Buddy Hackett and Johnny Carson appear twice.

Not sure if this is supposed to be a parody name or typo.

Here's the first part of Sick # 64 from December 1968.

Long-time followers may ask why I've been posting issues out of order, The short answer is they're the order in which I've been acquiring them.

Cover by Bruce Stark after not making the cut as one of Mad's “usual gang of idiots”.

Charles Rodrigues did the gag. I don't know if it or the caption came first.

Here is the next part of the 59th issue of Sick from March 1968. A possible explanation as to the reason it's cut on all sides is on the last post last week.

This strip by Bob Taylor was along the two pages of pen pal/Class-SICK-Fried Ads pages I didn't feel the need to reprint.

Written by Paul Laikin, who I believe was the real editor despite the masthead and wrote most of the material under different names to make it look like there were more writers. Earlier he had written for Mad, later edited wrote most of Cracked, and recycled much of this material when after this he was editor of Crazy and then Wacko and then back at Cracked.

The last piece of this particular issue of Sick from August 1970. The other two parts are here and here.

Steve Skeates and Al Bare.

I never knew whether Room 222 was pronounced “Room Two Two Two” or “Room Two Twenty-Two”, but after this borderline racist spoof drawn by Jack Sparling, now I know.

Anything to use pages by Jack Davis (not this page, but the next.)

Maybe I should have been born a generation earlier when airline flights all devolved into drunken orgies like this one.
