Peter Kuper
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Peter Kuper (b. 1958) is an American comics artist. Besides his contributions to the political anthology World War 3 Illustrated, which he co-founded, he is currently best known for taking over Spy vs. Spy for MAD Magazine after its creator Antonio Prohias retired. He has also released two critically-acclaimed books of Franz Kafka adaptations, and a solo series, Bleeding Heart.
One of Kuper's earliest influences was the 1964 nuclear disaster film Fail-Safe, which became a motivation for positive personal achievement by encouraging him to accomplish his goals "before the bomb drops."
Kuper should not be confused with cartoonist Peter Kuber.
