Well, folks, we've come to the end of Hal Sherman's MONSTERVILLE, the cartoon magazine published by Dell in September 1962.
Sherman, born Harold Sicherman in 1911, began his career as an artist during the Golden Age of comics, working for DC (STAR-SPANGLED COMICS, LEADING COMICS, MORE FUN COMICS) and as an assistant to Bernard Baily. Ironically, while at DC he proposed a character named Wonder Woman just before William Moulton Marston and H. G. Peter had their concept with of character with the same name accepted by the publisher.
Sherman went back to creating gag cartoons and worked for a while on Harvey's SPOOKY. He died in 2009.
