The Mad Morality or the Ten Commandments Revisited #[nn]

"Uptight Is..." is a sharp, satirical take from 1972, playing off the imagery of Marlboro cigarette ads with a darkly humorous twist: a funeral home markets gravestones shaped like cigarette packs for those lost to lung cancer. Illustrated with deadpan precision by Irving Schild, the story’s stark visuals and biting irony deliver a memorable, if unsettling, commentary on smoking culture—no punches pulled, just a single, unforgettable image that lingers.
