Críticas:
The best retrospective collection of the year.--Chris Mautner

Starred Review. A definitive overview of a remarkable talent and viewpoint, beautifully designed and printed.

Like Charles Addams, to whom he is often compared, Wilson is a master of the macabre.

This career retrospective is massive and beautiful and I think a lot of people are going to be so happy to have all this work in one place.--Tom Spurgeon

Twisting pop-culture icons to dark-witted ends, Wilson places his characters in a world of terror and understatement. ... [T]he incidental commentary here about human selfishness and shortsightedness squeezed between the B-movie monsters and little green men feels timeless, as does the remarkably high level of quality Wilson has maintained over the years. ... [Grade] A.

A monster production, a slipcased behemoth, nearly 1000 pages in three volumes, with deliciously wicked humor on every page. ... Open the box, free the three volumes, and dive in anywhere. You will not be disappointed.--John Mesjak

This is a stunning collection, gloriously presented.--Steve Duin

As mammoth and daunting a career retrospective as anyone could wish for: a gorgeous three-volume set, beautifully designed.--Douglas Wolk

The work is tremendous and witty and, as always with an excellent retrospective, it offers the reader an excellent chance to walk back in time through decades of experiences, memories, turbulences and triumphs, and just plain old human oddities. What's truly amazing is how, for more than 50 years, Wilson rarely misses a witty beat.--John Hogan

Norman Rockwell's evil twin.
Reseña del editor:
Wilson is among the most popular, widely read, and beloved cartoonists in the history of the medium, whose career spans the second half of the 20th century and all of the 21st. His work has been seen by millions - no, hundreds of millions - in the pages of Playboy (Wilson appeared in every issue of Playboy from the December 1957 issue to today), The New Yorker and many other magazines.

Wilson ridicules everything from state sponsored executions to teenage dating with hilarious satirical jabs. Although Wilson is known for his black comedy, this three-volume set truly demonstrates the depth and breadth of his range. Gahan Wilson: 50 Years of Playboy Cartoons is a testament to one of the funniest - and wickedly disturbing - cartoonists alive. It's not only a perfect holiday gift for his legion of fans, but also has crossover appeal to those who favor the darker sensibilities of cartoonists such as Charles Addams or Edward Gorey.
