Mad #156
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join free"Christmas Greedings" is a delightfully sharp parody of the TV detective series Columbo, featuring a bumbling yet unnervingly persistent cop who unravels a mystery through sheer, aggravating persistence. Written by Lou Silverstone and illustrated with crisp, expressive energy by Angelo Torres—both inks and pencils—this 1973 EC Comics gem turns holiday cheer into a comedic whodunit. The cover, by Norman Mingo, captures the story’s sly, festive menace in full.
