Mad #423
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join free"Road to Sedation" is a sharp, character-driven comic from 2002 that finds humor in the quiet absurdities of everyday life—office routines, awkward interviews, and the strange rituals of modern connection. Written and illustrated by Dave Berg, with inks by Berg and colors by Digital Chameleon, it’s a witty, tightly drawn exploration of human quirks, all rendered in the signature style of one of the medium’s most precise satirists.
In "The Lighter Side of..." from Mad #423, everyday absurdities take center stage as Jo navigates the quirks of modern life—from awkward job interviews and office politics to the strange rituals of lunch and therapy—each moment skewered with Mad’s signature wit. With no writer or artist credited beyond typeset letters, the humor lands with crisp, deadpan precision, turning the mundane into a parade of perfectly timed punchlines.
