☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis second volume of The MAD Archives collects issues #7-12 of the original MAD comic book series from 1953-1954, showcasing the satirical humor and iconic parodies that defined the early years of the legendary publication, with contributions from Harvey Kurtzman, Wally Wood, and other EC Comics greats.
In "Shermlock Shomes!", Harvey Kurtzman delivers a delightfully absurd detective tale wrapped in a mock-serious letter column format, featuring a cast of eccentric correspondents from across the country. With Kurtzman handling both the writing and the cover art, this 2008 DC oddity blends satire and mystery in a way only he could, all set within the quirky world of The Mad Archives.
