Mad #93
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "A Child's View of Newspaper Headlines," a clever parody of "I Need All the Friends I Can Get," famous comic strip characters illustrate the less-than-friendly side of friendship through exaggerated, tongue-in-cheek headlines. Written by Larry Siegel and brought to life with sharp, expressive art by Bob Clarke, the story offers a wry, visual satire of trust and betrayal, all rendered with the distinctive flair of EC’s signature style. The cover, by Norman Mingo, captures the playful cynicism of the piece in bold, striking lines.
In this 1965 satire from Mad #93, classic comic strip characters deliver a hilariously grim take on friendship, illustrating just how unreliable—or downright dangerous—some pals can be. A typeset lettering style adds to the mock-serious tone of this three-page parody of the book *I Need All the Friends I Can Get*.
