“Alfred's Poor Almanac”

A hand fans out a full spread of playing cards against a richly textured green background, with Alfred E. Neuman's gap-toothed grin staring out from the center Joker card — flanked by painted Kings and Queens in full regal splendor. Kelly Freas brings his painterly precision to this deceptively simple image, turning a card game into a wry commentary on where Alfred stands in the deck of life. Mad #69 from March 1962 also features "Alfred's Poor Almanac" with interior work by the remarkably talented Wally Wood — all for just 25 cents, cheap.
