"'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."
