About this Collection

This collection gathers material from the satirical magazine Mad, featuring its iconic mascot Alfred E. Neuman. The volume compiles a selection of classic parodies and humor pieces from the publication's run, showcasing the irreverent style that defined the series.

In "The Zing," two cunning con artists execute a high-stakes scheme against a ruthless crime boss, fueled by revenge for the murder of their partner. Written by Arnie Kogen and brought to life with sharp, exaggerated flair by artist Mort Drucker, this 1981 satire flips the script on classic caper tropes with a wild, deadpan twist. The cover, by Jack Rickard, captures the mischievous tension of the moment with a perfectly timed punchline in pencil and ink.
