Mad #482

In "The Fundalini Pages," Peter Kuper delivers two sharp, surreal strips that turn espionage into absurdist theater. The Black Spy sabotages a statue of the White Spy, who retaliates with a trap—only to be outwitted by a clever ruse in the next tale. With his signature blend of political edge and visual wit, Kuper’s writing, art, and inks bring a surreal tension to the rivalry, while Mark Fredrickson’s cover captures the story’s eerie, playful tone.
