Mad #223

In "Dullus," Dave Berg delivers his signature satirical wit to a series of everyday scenarios, from the absurdity of parking to the quiet drama of a dentist visit, all rendered with his precise, deadpan humor. A standout in the Mad series' long tradition of sharp social commentary, this 1981 issue collects a string of clever, bite-sized riffs on modern life, illustrated with Berg’s unmistakable style and capped off with a cover by Sam Viviano that perfectly captures the tone.
