Mad #405
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join free"Traff-eccch!" is a sharp, satirical dive into the absurdities of modern life, rendered in the signature deadpan wit of Dave Berg, who wrote, drew, and inked this Mad #405 installment. With a keen eye for irony, the story skewers everything from office politics to airline mishaps, all wrapped in the classic humor that made Mad a staple of 2001’s comic scene. The cover, by James Bennett, perfectly captures the issue’s sardonic tone.
In "The Lighter Side of..." from Mad #405, a satirical tour through modern absurdities finds humor in the quirks of everyday life—from office politics and airline mishaps to therapy sessions and the illogical rules of golf. With sharp, deadpan wit and no punchline left unturned, the story skewers the contradictions we all navigate, all in just four pages.
