Spy vs. Spy is a wordless black and white comic strip that was published in Mad magazine since 1961. It was created by Antonio Prohias, a Cuban national who fled to the United States in 1960 days before Fidel Castro took over the Cuban free press.

wOw, Mad magazine and the bw sopies. That brings memories. Very handy for this Cuban case, since the artist was Cuban.

yes, I loved MAD magazine... intellectual at the raunchy stage, almost. high school would have been a waste w/out Alfred and his toothy smile, plus knowing that the creator of Spy vs Spy was Cuban was a great source of pride for me, as a teenager that spoke Spanish with heavy Castilian accent in the burbs... thanks for your comment.
