"The Fundalini Pages" in Mad #483 (2007) gathers a quirky, sharp-edged collection of comic strips from a rotating cast of writers and artists, including Rob Harrell, Dan Long, Jason Yungbluth, Paul Gilligan, Keith Knight, Scott Nickel, and Douglas Paszkiewicz. From the absurdist humor of Pondering The Really Meaningful Stuff... to the satirical bite of Product Placement In Horror Movies, each strip offers a distinct voice in Mad’s long tradition of irreverent commentary. The cover by Mark Fredrickson captures the issue’s playful, offbeat spirit.

In this classic Mad satire, the Black Spy attempts a high-stakes infiltration using a stolen fingerprint—only to be thwarted by the very trap he expected. Meanwhile, the White Spy falls victim to a cunningly deceptive guillotine, proving that in the endless game of espionage, even the best-laid plans can backfire.
