“Mad's Modern Believe It or Nuts”

In "Mad's Modern Believe It or Nuts," a hilariously deadpan game warden, his two bewildered sons, and a surprisingly sharp dolphin take center stage in a satirical take on the popular "Flipper" TV series. Written by Dick DeBartolo and brought to life with sharp wit and expressive art by Mort Drucker, this parody skewers the earnest tone of 1960s adventure shows with a straight-faced absurdity that only Mad could deliver. The cover, by Norman Mingo, captures the story’s offbeat charm with its classic, exaggerated EC flair.
