Sigh. Another great one gone, with the more modern, and specific, cartoons of the macabre. I had a steady dose of Charles Addams from an early age though Mad Magazine never got into my house, but I did lots long hours of babysitting. I could always find the PLAYBOY stash to look at the cartoons (and sometimes read the fiction). I also remember Wilson's contribution to the SF anthology DANGEROUS VISIONS... A spot that grew...and grew... The only graphic art bit in that anthology series.

In some ways, her reminded me of James Thurber, just with the weird dialed up higher.
