Mad #97
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Being Rich Is Better Than a Warm Puppy," a satirical take on the Western genre, director John Ford presents his absurdly exaggerated film "Cheyenne Awful," where Native Americans and U.S. Cavalry soldiers play out their roles with comedic exaggeration. Written by Larry Siegel and brought to life with sharp, expressive art by Mort Drucker, the story offers a wry, visual comedy that skewers cinematic tropes. The cover, by Norman Mingo, captures the story’s irreverent tone with its bold, caricatured style.
