IZ was in my mind the most prolific train writer ever, and for my generation from 1981 and on he was our IN TOP.  I had the chance to interview him several years back when he was still in Rockaway and he was very candid and generous.  I will never forget him telling me that he painted trains every single day in 1982.  Coming from anybody else I would not believe it but IZ I believed.

A sad day in the graffiti world, we lost a true pioneer.

Rest in Peace Mike Martin aka IZ, IKE 327, CI…TMB Forever

This is a poster for the Regional Addiction Prevention program ( RAP) - Hmm, clever acronym), in Washington D.C., and was circulated in 1985 in an effort to combat the rampant PCP abuse during the 80’s.  I would love to hear what they told the illustrator…ah, make smoking dust look like your blowing your brains out…Good job bro.
The mushroom cloud with the skull is illmatic…The gun with the fatty is pretty ill too.
