Description

DC 2002

This original Spy vs. Spy page by Peter Kuper, created for MAD Magazine #422, showcases the artist’s distinctive blend of sharp satire and bold graphic style. Executed using airbrush, stencil techniques, and colored pencils, the piece highlights Kuper’s mastery of layered textures and dynamic contrasts, perfectly capturing the mischievous rivalry between the Black Spy and the White Spy.
The composition reflects Kuper’s modern reinterpretation of Antonio Prohias’ iconic characters—maintaining their classic mischievous essence while infusing the artwork with contemporary energy and meticulous craftsmanship. The airbrushed gradients provide depth and atmosphere, the stencils add crisp geometric precision, and the colored pencils bring hand-drawn vibrancy to the final image.

Very nice and polished work and storytelling! Maybe a bit too polished from the way we used to love the Prohias version. Maybe it was the simplicity that made the kid in us think we could someday be drawing for MAD too.

That's a lot of fun. The feet are great.
