Mad #467

Mad #467 from July 2006 takes aim at Pixar's Cars, with a cover showing the Rust-eze-sponsored Lightning McQueen (#95) roaring forward at full speed while a hapless, flat-as-a-pancake figure clutches a checkered flag and gets dragged helplessly along for the ride. The visual gag captures Mad's gleefully irreverent spirit perfectly — equal parts affection and mockery for one of summer 2006's biggest animated films. Rounding out the promise of laughs inside are teased targets like 24's Jack Bauer, Superman's new problems, and The Daily Show.
