Good 'n' Mad #26
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Government Greeting Cards," Frank Jacobs and Jack Rickard deliver a sharp, satirical take on corporate America, where the familiar tunes of Broadway classics are repurposed into jingles for everything from Raleigh cigarettes to Allstate insurance. With Norman Mingo’s sharp, deadpan cover capturing the absurdity, the issue turns a wry eye on the slick artifice of advertising in the early '80s.
In "Future Singing TV Commercials," a satirical slice of retro-futurist ad culture, familiar jingles twist the tunes of classic Broadway shows into absurd pitches for products like Raleigh cigarettes and Allstate insurance. With deadpan delivery and over-the-top enthusiasm, the story turns everyday items into theatrical spectacles—complete with choreographed singing and dramatic lighting—where even Vitalis and Crest get their moment in the spotlight.
