As one person wrote:
"Bob Dylan memorialized Basil on his "Theme Time Radio
Show" during his episode on "Hair." His drawings are quite fascinating! RIP.

Basil Wolverton inducted
SAN DIEGO, Calif.--Basil Wolverton, WCG elder and
cartoonist who died in 1978, was named to the Will Eisner Hall of Fame at
Comic-Con International in July. Mr. Wolverton, before affiliating with the then
Radio Church of God in the 1940s, was a Vaudeville performer, radio broadcaster
and comic-book author and illustrator. He also wrote and illustrated The Bible
Story in six volumes for the Radio/Worldwide Church of God from the 1950s
through the '70s. His work still frequently appears in Mad magazine.
