"Cracked Brings You Greetings" is a gloriously absurd 1986 satire from artist and inker John Severin, featuring the gloriously outlandish Super Hawk, a superhero whose singular mission is to win the Vietnam War on behalf of President Nixon—despite a critical vulnerability to Agent Orange. The cover, a sharp and sardonic piece by Bill Wray, perfectly captures the issue’s irreverent tone.
