Mad Special [Mad Super Special] #15
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join free"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.
In "A Sports Fan's Garden of Verses," Mad Special #15 delivers a delightfully absurd collection of satirical poems that skewer the quirks and clichés of American sports culture. From the mythical "Broadway Joe" to the humble "Hometown Goalie," each verse offers a laugh with a wink, blending absurdity and wordplay in true Mad fashion.
In this hilarious 1975 parody from Mad Special #15, a clueless detective and his equally bewildered team chase a missing Hawaiian artifact across the islands, turning the iconic "Hawaii Five-0" formula into a riot of absurdity—complete with perfectly typeset letters that add to the satire.
