In "M.A.S.H.E.D," Sururi Gümen delivers a sharp, visually playful contrast across twelve everyday topics—from dating to vacations—pairing dull and dazzling takes in crisp, exaggerated illustrations. John Severin’s iconic cover art perfectly captures the issue’s satirical spirit, making this 1981 Cracked #182 a standout in the series’ long tradition of clever, deadpan humor.

In "Dull vs. Exciting," a playful visual contrast explores everyday life through split-page illustrations—each subject, from sports to vacations to teachers, shown in both mundane and thrilling forms. With crisp, typeset letters and a deadpan wit, the piece turns ordinary choices into a cheeky, side-by-side showdown of imagination versus routine.
