This 1992 illustration by Jack Davis depicts a comedic scene with three ghoulish figures performing on stage. One figure holds a microphone, another pulls a face, while the third stands on stage, as if about to jump. Their expressions are grotesquely exaggerated, reminiscent of the classic, cartoonish style that Davis was known for. The artwork is a cover illustration for the "Jokes from the Crypt" paperback, a collection of dark humor. Davis, a prolific American cartoonist, was best known for his work in MAD magazine, and for his horror-themed illustrations for EC Comics.
