Mad #110
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "The Mad Hate Book," a man facing a terminal diagnosis embraces life by chasing absurd dangers and encountering a parade of eccentric strangers—each moment a surreal, darkly comic sprint toward oblivion. Written by Dick DeBartolo and brought to life with sharp, expressive art by Mort Drucker, this 1967 EC classic parodies the anxiety-fueled drama of "Run For Your Life" with biting satire and wild invention. The cover, by Norman Mingo, captures the story’s manic energy in bold, exaggerated strokes.
In "The Life of Your Run," a man facing a terminal diagnosis decides to live dangerously—chasing absurd thrills and stumbling into equally ridiculous encounters, all in a satirical take on the melodramatic tropes of 1960s TV. With sharp, deadpan humor and a typeset lettering style that mirrors the era’s punchy satire, the story turns the idea of a final journey into a surreal, self-aware romp.
