Mad #304
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "The Oddfather Part III," Dave Berg delivers a sharp, satirical take on modern life’s quiet crises—from office politics to medical bills, from marital strain to the absurdity of corporate culture—wrapped in his signature deadpan wit. With his distinctive art and storytelling, Berg turns everyday frustrations into a darkly comic mosaic, all framed by Richard Williams’ sharp, stylish cover.
In "The Lighter Side of...", a sharp, satirical take on modern life’s absurdities, a single narrator navigates a parade of everyday frustrations—from overpriced meals to soul-crushing office routines—while wrestling with personal upheaval and the ever-watchful eye of big business. With deadpan wit and a dry, typeset lettering style that mirrors the tone, the story skewers pride, panic, and the small indignities that make up a day.
