History of Jack Davis in Comic Book Art
Jack Davis was a comic book artist, caricaturist and illustrator who became famous for his cover art, movie posters and album art, in addition to being one of the founding cartoonists of MAD Magazine.
His career began in the late 1940s, working in advertisement, with assignments like drawing a training manuals for Coca-Cola.
He attended the Arts Students League of New York, and there he found work with the Herald Tribune Syndicate as an inker on The Saint comic strip. Davis then launched his own humour comic strip entitled Beauregard, which was set during the Civil War era.
In 1950, Davis began freelancing for EC Comics, working on titles like Tales from the Crypt, The Vault of Horror, The Haunt of Fear, Frontline Combat, Two-Fisted Tales, Piracy, Incredible Science Fiction, Crime SuspenStories, Shock SuspenStories and Terror Illustrated.
Davis became a regular for humour magazines as well like Trump, Humbug, Help and Cracked. He also did a number of movie posters like It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad, World, The Long Goodbye and Viva Max, as well as paperback cover art and postcards.
During the late 1950s, Davis began to work for Atlas Comics, drawing Western stories for them like Rawhide Kid.
Davis has won many awards over his career, including an Inkpot Award in 1985. He also won the National Cartoonists Society's Milton Caniff Lifetime Achievement Award in 1996.
He has been inducted into the Will Eisner Hall of Fame and was a finalist to be inducted into the Jack Kirby Hall of Fame on three separate occasions. He also won the National Cartoonists Society's Advertising Award in 1980 and in 2000 won their Reuben Award.
Davis was awarded the Inkwell Awards Stacey Aragon Special Recognition Award for his lifetime of work in the inking field posthumously in 2019.
