Gahan Wilson's Out There: The Science Fiction and Fantasy Cartoons and Writings of Gahan Wilson by Gahan Wilson, 269 pages.Wilson, maybe better known as a cartoonist for Playboy, also had cartoons in The Magazine of Fantasy and Science Fiction for 17 years, and wrote short stories for that publication as well. His quirky, macabre, and almost absurd cartoons appeared in every issue of the magazine from April, 1965 until 1981. I remember going to the Des Plaines Public Library and reading copies of this magazine in the reading room; you had to be very quiet there. The cartoons seemed familiar, Wilson's style is instantly recognizable, but I don't have any memory of them in context.
