Mad Special [Mad Super Special] #14

In "The Vampire," Frank Jacobs crafts a satirical skewering of cultural obsessions through a series of mock obituaries for societal trends, all illustrated with Norman Mingo’s sharp, expressive art. Don Martin’s iconic cover, featuring Alfred E. Neuman in vampiric guise, perfectly captures the issue’s irreverent tone—a 75-cent comic from 1974 that skewers the absurdity of the moment with wit and visual flair.
