Mad #42

In "What If You Did What They Told You On TV?", Paul Laikin and Wally Wood craft a sharp, satirical take on everyday jobs, presenting them as if they were movie credits—complete with fictional "professional" titles for each role. The story unfolds in the style of a mock-credits roll, spotlighting the unseen labor behind common professions, all drawn with Wally Wood’s precise, expressive line work. The cover, by Kelly Freas, captures the surreal tone with a striking, stylized image that hints at the story’s playful critique of conformity.
