Steadman?

This is for all non-EC or peripheral-EC topics. We all know how much we love talking about 'The Man' but sometimes we have other interests.

He also did The Great Shark Hunt.

I have a few Steadman books including I Leonardo, Tales of the Weird, Still Life With a Bottle, Gonzo the Art, and Scar Strangled Banger. He is by far and away my favourite illustrator/charicaturist after whom I would probably rate Robert Crumb, Ian Pollock (check out a book called Brothers of the Head), and Bill Griffith.

also have been enamoured by the works of Eric Carle since I read his children's books The Very Hungry Caterpillar and The Bad-Tempered Ladybird in infant school...
