Mad #84
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Future Singing TV Commercials," a surreal 1964 EC Comics gem, iconic brands from the past collide in a bizarre, jingle-filled vision of corporate synergy. Written by Don Reilly and brought to life with sharp, satirical flair by Wallace Wood, the story imagines a world where household names like RCA and MGM, or Mr. Clean and Old Dutch, merge into singing, synchronized advertisements. The cover, a vibrant collage by Norman Mingo, captures the era’s playful consumer culture with a 30-cent price tag that still feels fresh.
