Mad Special [Mad Super Special] #15

Jan 1975 · EC · 0.75 USD
“Botch Casually and the Somedunce Kid”

"Botch Casually and the Somedunce Kid" is a delightfully absurd Mad Special #15 from 1975, where Frank Jacobs' sharp wit meets Jack Davis' wildly expressive art in a series of satirical poems celebrating sports with deadpan flair. From "Broadway Joe" to "The Hometown Goalie," each piece turns athletic clichés into hilarious, surreal vignettes, all rendered with Davis’ signature exaggeration and Norman Mingo’s dynamic cover work.
