Original Gahan Wilson Artwork, War on Drugs is Really Getting Out of Hand, 1996

To some, a Gahan Wilson cartoon will release a belly laugh as forceful as an atom bomb. To others, his cartoons may fail to trigger a chuckle. The good news is that even if you don't like his jokes, you can marvel at how beautiful his artwork is. The list of artists with an instantly recognizable style is short in art history. Gahan Wilson is a rare breed of artist whose deeply original painting and drawing skills are on a par with his conceptual thinking. In the undervalued field of cartooning, he rivals giants such as Charles Addams.
