Gahan Wilson is an American cartoonist, and a longtime contributor to both Playboy and The New Yorker magazines. not to mention The Magazine Of Fantasy & Science Fiction. He also drew a Newspaper Comics series, titled simply Gahan Wilson's Sunday Comics. His subject matter tends heavily toward the grotesque and whimsical.
Although he is usually known for his cartoons, he contributed some book reviews to F&SF, and his story "[The title is an inkblot]" was included in Harlan Ellison's anthology Again, Dangerous Visions. The titular inkblot (which is drawn in his distinctive style) plays an integral part in the story.
Common tropes:
- Alien Lunch
- Dada Comics
- Far Side Island
- Fluffy Cloud Heaven
- "Have a Nice Day" Smile (he hates them!)
- Freudian Couch (a particular favorite)
