“The Inspector General”

In "The Inspector General," a slick con artist wins a railroad in a rigged poker game and sets out to build it—despite a cast of scheming rivals, his own incompetence, and the absurdity of it all. Written by Dick DeBartolo and brought to life with sharp, satirical flair by artist Mort Drucker, this Mad classic parodies the grandiose style of "The Iron Horse" with a mix of deadpan humor and visual gags. The cover, by Norman Mingo, captures the story’s sly, self-aware tone in bold, expressive lines.
