Mark Evanier posted an article about the passing of Richard Pesta, aka Captain Sticky. Back in the 1970's, he was a purported real life superhero who fought against consumer fraud. And way back in that prehistoric time, when I was trying to launch my own school newspaper column (The Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World of Tony Collett, give a Mad or two), I did a write up about the good captain.
The obituary can be read here.
