Copywriter

Done before the earliest desktop publication systems, the technique usually involved a drawing hand cut to existing artwork.
Nida Man (below) was an ad series formatted as a comic strip in order to stand out from the other advertising fare in Central Pennsylvania Business Journal, where it ran monthly.
