Crazy Magazine #63

Marvel's humor magazine keeps its satirical streak alive in this June 1980 issue, where the magazine's cartoon mascot — a shifty, trench-coated figure — slouches in front of a television set, snacking from a bowl of popcorn while a colorful baseball scene plays on the screen. The cover promises a packed lineup of parody targets: Apocalypse Now, the TV show Benson, Howard the Duck, and Teen Hulk all get the Crazy treatment inside, and Bob Larkin's cover art strikes a perfect balance between deadpan and absurd. If you enjoy sharp pop-culture send-ups delivered with a light touch, this is a fine snapshot of what Marvel's comedy side was up to in 1980.
