The Mad Frontier #12 (86-066)

Sep 1975 · Warner Books · 1.25 USD
“The National Safety Council's Holiday-Weekend Telethon”

In "The National Safety Council's Holiday-Weekend Telethon," Paul Laikin and Wally Wood deliver a delightfully satirical take on the behind-the-scenes chaos of a live broadcast, rendered in the format of a mock movie credits roll. With Wally Wood’s sharp, detailed art and Norman Mingo’s crisp cover, the issue playfully assigns professional-sounding titles to everyday roles—like "Assistant to the Assistant to the Assistant" and "Cable Technician (Unofficial)"—all while keeping the tone light and the humor grounded in the absurdity of routine.
