Hi, this is Gilbert Gottfried. You're listening to Gilbert Gottfried's amazing colossal podcast.

Today, we're talking to one of the greatest illustrators and cartoonists of our time.

His work has appeared in the New York Times, Newsweek, Esquire, Rolling Stone, Time, National Ampoule,

then the Wall Street Journal, just a name of you. So today, Frank Santopladre and myself sat down

with Drew Friedman at New York City Society of Illustrators.

The name of his brand new book is Heroes of the Comics featuring 85 portraits of the legends of comic books,

published by Fantagraphics Books. So now we talk to Drew Friedman.

Hi, I'm Gilbert Gottfried and I'm here with my co-host, Frank Santopladre.

And this is the amazing colossal podcast. We're here. Today, we're taping at the Society of Illustrators on 63rd

between Park and Lex, where they're currently having a whole gallery of the work of Drew Friedman.

And if you don't know that name, you'd recognize his drawings from like National Ampoule, where I met him.

And the New Yorker and I think every other magazine. Playboy, yeah, every once. So...

At your team, it's Weeley's. Was I in Playboy? I don't remember.

You weren't in Playboy? No, no. See, I told Frank never to talk during this show. I begged him.

You were never in Playboy? No, I was never in Playboy. See, you're killing this show.

I've read, I've read, my dad was in Playboy. You don't know anything about the month's guess.

We need some police. Police shut up, Frank. He has to mention Playboy. You've never been in it.

No, I never. Entertainment Weekly. Yes, there you go. There we go. We always...

We mixed them up. You were in Highlight. I liked him. I only went to the Dennis Toreed Highlight.

Yes. The only reason. Now, we did meet. I'm pretty sure at National Ampoule.

We did. We kind of found each other there because we both loved Loncini Jr.

Yes. And Lionel At Oral and George Zucko. So we had that in common. Especially Tor Johnson.
