Mad #239
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join free"Simple & Simple" delivers another sharp, satirical dive into the absurdities of everyday life, as Dave Berg mines humor from the quiet chaos of routine—jogging, marriage, pets, and the strange logic of neighbors—through his signature deadpan wit. With crisp, precise art by Berg himself and a cover by Jack Rickard that captures the story’s dry tone, this 1983 issue is a classic slice of Mad’s observational comedy at its most incisive.
