COMMENTS
Here is the original artwork for the classic "Wizard of Id" Daily Comic Strip, dated December 7th, 1979, pencilled by Brant Parker and written by Johnny Hart.
The spontaneous, brightly composed style that Hart had introduced with B.C. during the 1950s carried over impressively to The Wizard of Id, his collaborative strip with Parker. This darkly humorous installment features two great characters, Turnkey, the guard who runs dungeons, but spends most of his time outside of Spook’s cell. Ink over graphite on lightweight Bristol board, with Zipatone shading. Image area, 18" x 5.25" inches. Faint toning. The artwork is issued with a certificate of authenticity (as pictured).
The Wizard of Id
The Wizard of Id is a daily newspaper comic strip created by American cartoonists Brant Parker and Johnny Hart. Beginning in 1964, the strip follows the antics of a large cast of characters in a shabby medieval kingdom called "Id". From time to time, the king refers to his subjects as "Idiots". (The title is a play on The Wizard of Oz, combined with the Freudian psychological term Id, which represents the instinctive and primal part of the human psyche.)
