Best known for his work in early horror comics, his iconic features in <em>Mad<\/em> magazine, and his legendary &#8220;Lena the Hyena&#8221; depiction for Al Capp\u2019s <em>Li&#8217;l Abner<\/em> strip, Wolverton\u2019s surreal, grotesque caricatures remain a foundational influence on the underground comix movement and modern lowbrow art culture.<\/p>\n<h3>Shipping:<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Domestic shipping<\/strong>: choose NON-BOOK item under 1lb. $7.99 option or medium box priority.
