Overview

"Join us as we take you behind closed doors. . . and expose the idiotic antics of the agent in black and the agent in white! ""Spy vs. Spy"" was the brainchild of Cuban-born political cartoonist Antonio Prohias, who fled his country after receiving death threats from Fidel Castro. Prohias settled in America, and in 1960 he began a 26-year run of Spy misadventures in MAD Magazine. This book by Prohias, long out of print, showcases his genius as an artist, storyteller, and graphic designer."
