R.I.P. Stan, Harvey and Jack.

I came to know about Jack Davis and Harvey Kurtzman at around mid 2000's when I started to discover mid century illustration and now I can finally put a face to the names. God, I love Jack Davis!

He was suffering from Parkinsons disease when this video was made and he died of liver cancer just months afterwards. Cut the man some slack, I'm grateful to have this last interview with one of the giants of the comicbook medium.

end of the video: Jack "how do we get home?" end credits: Harvey "What's happening?" lol

So lucky to have an original Jack Davis. True Southern gentleman.

The master himself Harvey Kurtzman ❤

You can tell how much Jack cares for his friend, Harvey, by the way the caricature came out 💙

I can hardly see the video with all of the shade being thrown between Stan and Harvey. Also, Jack's a legend

when Stan said "I use to erase your signatures" Harvey looked at him like "What!"

The two men I look up to as cartoonists and artists in comics. The sublime Harvey Kurtzman and the bigger than life Jack Davis. There were simply none bigger. R.I.P. all three of you great men.

My left ear thoroughly enjoyed this.

This is Epic!! RIP Stan, Harvey, and Jack!!! Your work lives on!!

When you study Jack’s old Tales from the Crypt panels you’ll realize that the guy was truly a genius.

What a treat to watch these three guys. And to see Jack Davis crank out those drawings with no preliminary sketch. Wow! :)

Jack Davis was always inspiring to me.

I loved Harvey's work on Annie Fanny. He and Will Elder (a great artist) produced a great series.

Kurtzman looked great here for a man of 67, as well as Jack Davis! R.I.P. Kurtzman. "Prince of Parody"

This video could be dubbed in a foreign language, filmed in black and white, and with subtitles, and I would still favourite and like this video. This is just awesome, just awesome. Sad to see Kurtzman in ill health. It's hard to see anyone in ill health, it has to be said.

Wow this is great! It’s awesome seeing Jack Davis in action!

RIP The Great Jack Davis.

Really funny video! I think the funniest video I the Comic book Greats Series. I loved watching Stan and Harvey tease each other. You can tell they've known each other for a long time, and they have. Since the '40s??? Jeez! All three of them had great chemistry on screen together. Too bad there weren't more interviews with them riffing each other. Harvey had that old-school sense of Jewish humor. Really funny dude! Reminds me of some of the old-timers in my neighborhood. Great vid!

Jack Davis is so modest even though he's probably the greatest cartoonist to come out of EC. Him and Al Williamson.

RIP Jack and Harvey.

R.I.P to the legends.

Damn the EC guys Jack and Harvey are both in their 70s here I think, pretty sure Stan was a similar age. Jack and Stan seem so well compared to the state that Harvey seems to be in, no wonder the men went on to their 90s, makes me feel for all of them. RIP all artists here, truly trail blazers in art and culture. I still try to emulate all these guys in my art. I've been searching for Jack Davis working on his art, always wondered what his process was in the EC days, this is the closest I could find even though it's not even ink!

There will never be anybody like these guys. All of the EC artists are complete legends. To think that 70 years later we're still reprinting and putting out their comics for newer generations to enjoy is amazing to me. As much as I love the silver age of superhero comics, the EC stuff has barely aged a bit in my opinion.

Legendary gathering

So much shade 😂from Stan

It's incredible to watch two icons in the industry sitting down with Stan lee.

This video is pure gold.

Haha Stan makes this so awkward!!

Watching these is as therapeutic as a Bob Ross video.

Wonderful opportunity to see Jack work. I enjoyed it.

This was so amazing! So inspirational.

Two REAL masters here, more talent in their little fingers than virtually every artist who's appeared in this series. Those Hey Looks were amazing and Jack Davis could draw anything....Fun fact: The Harvey Kurtzman Checklist was authored by Glenn Bray, master collector of comics, comics ephemera and original art (as well as being the executor of Stanislaus Kulawski's estate), whose collection is showcased in the great Blighted Eye book from Fantagraphics. Poor Harvey, you could really see the effects of the Parkinson's Disease that eventually killed him. Man, this is the best in the entire fucking series.

Awesome! Thanks so much for uploading. Two giants of the art. Amazing to watch.

Thank you honestly for posting this.

So fun! Thanks!! :)

Funny moment 8 minutes in, when Harvey scolds Stan for poking him in the eye with the poster.

Thanks for these...such a shame they didn't do more!

Jack Davis IS ... my favorite. Yep.

Give up your cassette, you one guy from Mars.

Amazing comics creators AND Stan Lee, creator of Stan Lee, period.

These guys, they got the real skills!

I love stan Lee comic books

Careful Jack Davis, Stan Lee might say he created your drawing.

cool stan lee

this is sick. love.

My heroes

stan lee's arrogant demeanour is apparent to me in this even though im happy it exists

Jack daWizz!

@GalacticGuardian I think you should give Harvey a break since he was probably ill at the time. He died in February of 1993 (this was filmed sometime in 1992 I think). And Stan's the Man. 'Nuff said!

It isa little sad to see him Harvey not in the best of health..he was not really into the interview...Jack Davis and Stan Lee did great

I wonder who owns that Jack Davis sketch of Harvey now?

Kurtzman, Elder, Davis, and Wood were the backbone of brilliance and funny for Mad's first 30 or so issues. Later on, Clarke, Woodbridge, Drucker, and Martin held it together. When I need a laugh, I go back to those issues. I'm still in awe of the quality that those artists maintained.

Harvey didn't seem so good in this video, I read the comments below so I got a general idea of the problems he was having at the time but it is good to see that Stan Lee really was happy he was there and helped carry him through this and probably brought him on to do him some justice for the body of work he has already done! Both of the guys was Harvey were truly great people and I'm sure Harvey was too! At this point I could probably say R.I.P to all three of them unfortunately....

11:36 Nice Joke, Stan.

Did I say my favorite human being of all time? 'Cause that's what I meant.

Gee, I wonder why Jack Kirby was never on this show…

I'm surprised that "Comic Book" is present as two words instead of one. I know that Stan was a big stickler for the correct term being Comicbook -- one word -- because as two words, the phrase "comic book" conveyed that the books were of a humorous or comical nature.

✌️❤️

1:40 you didn't create MAD Magazine?

All men are gone

Funny how Stan says how amazing and popular Hey Look! was, but made Harvey draw cliché Blondie-copy fillers (Rusty) instead due to lack of Hey Look!'s popularity at the time (when Harvey made fillers at Timely/Marvel)... witch drove Harvey MAD, literally :D Sums up Lee's personality pretty well, but this is show business I guess.

The hell that is mono

Stan "the man" didn't come off very well if you ask me

Lee was being a bit of a boor, here. It was common knowledge in the industry that poor Mr. Kurtzman was in dreadful shape. If he'd try to draw the result would have been appalling. I think he behaved very graciously.

You can tell Harvey hates Stan Lee. Probably thinking this guy wants to own everything he sees.

jesus, Stan never shuts up, nor stops trying to be "funny"....ooof

The "interviewer" loves the sickening sound of his own voice. That spoils this for me.
