It Took A Village, The New Yorker, Jan 5th: Madmen showed up regularly in Feiffer’s early strips, which were written at a time when the advertising copywriter, rather than the management consultant, was the personification of the sellout. In fact, they loved Feiffer on Madison Avenue. They loved the Voice on Madison Avenue. Feiffer’s characters were sometimes business types and politicians, but they were also sometimes caricatures of the sort of people one would imagine to be Voice readers—beatniks, lounge lizards, modern dancers. The hip was mocked as much as the square.
