☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join free"Early One Morning in the Near Future" delivers a delightfully absurd spin on sports poetry in Mad Special #38, a 1982 classic that finds Frank Jacobs crafting whimsical, satirical verses on everything from track meets to hockey goals. Jack Davis brings the manic energy to the page with his signature grotesque flair, while Sergio Aragonés’ cover delivers the expected chaos—perfectly matching the issue’s playful, offbeat tone.
