Panic was a humor comic published by Bill Gaines as a companion to Harvey Kurtzman's Mad, which was being heavily imitated by others.
Panic was edited by Al Feldstein (who became the editor of Mad a few years later). Feldstein was the primary cover artist, with stories illustrated by Jack Davis, Will Elder, Jack Kamen, Joe Orlando, Basil Wolverton and Wally Wood. Some story ideas were by Nick Meglin, later the co-editor of Mad. Scripts were by Feldstein, Elder and Jack Mendelsohn, later a co-screenwriter of Yellow Submarine (1968). Some issues were reprinted in Panic (1997 series)
