    thank you both for sending me down this nostalgia hole 💕 I remember this vividly (and fondly) from hanging out with a fellow computer-nerd friend in my youth™ who seemed to have an endless supply of #MADMagazine (I had none) and thanks to y’all I’ve finally tracked it down online 🎉

    I haven’t cleaned up all the scans yet but the blog post I got them from is MAD Spoof of "The Wrath Of Khan" at mystartrekscrapbook.blogspot.c

    🖖

  5. RE: mastodon.social/@rubenbolling/

    “MAD Magazine published its 600th issue this week, and celebrated with a gorgeous cover (and back cover) by the reigning champ of MAD cartooning, Sergio Aragonés. Aragonés's first appearance in the magazine was in issue #76, published in 1963.”

    ⭐️⭐️⭐️ Bliss. See Ruben’s post for a splendid image of Aragonés full wrap-around MAD 600 cover. #cartoon #art #madmagazine

  7. A nice little get from Bismarck Antique Mall and Junk Rescuers yesterday — three Mad magazine annuals (Mad Follies) from 1966-1968 — with parody advertising on their back covers. Bonus: the stencils and stickers are still intact!

  8. I was so excited as a kid when I saw these books (in the #comics rack at a Rite Aid I think??)

    I loved #MadMagazine and Sergio Aragonés’ cartoons in particular (still do) newsfromme.com/2026/04/21/ask-

  9. You know what would *really* make foldable smartphones a success?

    A fold-IN-able smartphone.

    They could even hire artists to create all-new fold-ins in the classic MAD style.

  12. I don't know why this hadn't occurred to me until now. The Onion is doing exactly what Mad Magazine used to do.

    And that's a good thing.

  13. “Never tell me the odds!”*…

    How likely is it that one will be born on a Leap Day? That one will find a pearl in an oyster? That one will solve Wordle on the first guess? That one will die on a tornado? That two people will share the same fingerprint?

    The good folks at R74n (@r74n.com) have these probabilities– and so many more: “What Are The Odds?”

    As we place our bets, we might spare a thought for Harvey Kurtzman; he died on this date in 1993. A cartoonist and editor, he is best know for writing and editing the parodic comic book Mad from 1952 until 1956. Kurtzman scripted every story in the first twenty-three issues. (The New York Times‘ obituary for Kurtzman in 1993, alluding to the role of publisher William Gaines, said Kurtzman had “helped found Mad Magazine.” This prompted an angry response to the newspaper from Art Spiegelman, who complained that awarding Kurtzman partial credit for starting Mad was “like saying Michelangelo helped paint the Sistine Chapel just because some Pope owned the ceiling.”)

    Kurtzman, who mentored many younger cartoonists (including Terry Gilliam and Robert Crumb), is considered, with cartoonists like Will Eisner, Jack Kirby, and Carl Barks, one of the defining creators of the Golden Age of American comic books. The prestigious Harvey Awards (for achievement in comic books) are named in his honor.

  16. DONG! DONG! NEW CHAPTER ALERT!! Godo (the hovering krasue from the Phung dimension) had a cameo at the beach party in volume three, but here is her big introduction from volume six (1988's "Soda and the Wazzfish Kweendom"). She and her best friend Jodo determine that something is rotten in the city of Schmegma.

    Classic Rivals, the spy figure is by shaderbytes on sketchfab (CC BY), the bomb is by XEN0KID on Sketchfab (CC BY). Redone in Blender (and posing was a mess, thus the arm looks somewhat ... funny)

  18. Is anyone else watching #GildedAge on #HBOMax? There's an actor, Ben Ahlers, who looks EXACTLY like the old MAD magazine character Alfred E. Neuman. The resemblance is uncanny. If there was every a movie made about him they'd have to hire Ben.
