Mad #160 (Albert Feldstein) - Cannonball Issue - July 1973
Mort Drucker was missing from the second consecutive issue. This would not happen again for many years. This time his place was taken by the equally-talented Mr. Jack Davis. The Davis drawings for the "Cannonball" television parody were excellent. In the Dick DeBartolo parody, the hero is shown investigating a murder while constantly eating and wearing a bib. In one frame, Mr. Cannonball is eating a plateful of hamburgers while wearing a "Wimpy" hat. He can also smoke two pipes and a cigar at the same time. [JAM 4/7/2010]
