Jack Davis is by far one of my favorites. I grew up in a small town in a far away country, I loved comics, but the only ones I got when I was a kid were two old MAD magazines, I can't tell the millions of times I read those and admired Jack and Mort Drucker pages, he's awesome.

Hey Javier, same here, I was about 10 or so when I got a MAD magazine subscribtion for my birthday from my grandma, I was completly addicted to Davis' and of course Drucker's style, too! :) Cheers!
