Will Eisner Self-Caricatures



In the 227 issues of PS Magazine for which Will Eisner provided creative art and pre-press production services, there was only one instance in which he inserted himself as a character in a continuity. That was in PS 117 (August 1962). Eisner appears there five times in the role of a TV interviewer. This montage reflects three of the five self-images that Eisner chose to share with his military audience. The complete continuity is reproduced in Will Eisner and PS Magazine.
