Mad #274

In "LA Lewd," Dave Berg serves up his signature satirical take on modern absurdities, weaving together the quiet chaos of daily life—from hospital visits and marital squabbles to the strange rituals of jogging and birthday rituals—through a series of sharp, self-aware vignettes. With his trademark wit and meticulous detail, Berg’s writing and art (pencils, inks) deliver a biting, observant look at the little ironies that define routine existence, all framed by Mort Drucker’s exaggerated, deadpan cover.
