Sergio Aragones (Sergio Aragones Funnies #6, Dec. 2011)  (Written by Sergio Aragones, Drawn by Jack Davis. Mad #237, March 1983) Don Martin Dept. (Mad #110, April 1967)  Thorn (January 30-31, 1984)   No, that last strip is not an edit. It really was published like that. Lucky Cow (April 11, 2004)   That's a really well done "noir" effect. Mark Pett knows how to draw. Breetai posted:Edit: Al Jaffe just to illustrate what I'm talking about. SUPER NWS Man, those are awesome! I really need to build up my MAD collection. Off to eBay, I guess!

Breetai posted:These are amazing. I inherited a bunch of late-'70's/early-'80's MAD from a family friend, and it blew my 8-year-old mind. I'm still astounded that so many of the issues from the Gaines era managed to have wall-to-wall tits, butts, and depiction of intravenous drug use (see the Mad Rock Issue for a sterling example) or just really, really dark humour. My uncle had an enormous pile of 70s-era Mad Magazines in his guest room that I read voraciously as a kid and I think they did a good job of informing my sense of humor.

Since he has an original manuscript of the Song of Roland and Excalibur, I'm gonna go with the theory that he met Alan Moore's Orlando after faking his way into some sort of get-together for immortal comic book characters.

Time dilates, hours and days lapping at the shores of her rapidly dimming consciousness, and the synaptic connections collapse her visions gradually morph into an incoherent circus of cheery gratitude and patriotic good intent. Soon will arrive the eternal chaos. Nancy will receive retribution. The final erasure will never come.

I mentioned that several of Mad's "Usual Gang of Idiots" has done newspaper strips. I figure I'd show some. Benchley (1984-1986) Drawn by Mort Drucker (scripts by Jerry Dumas) Benchley was an assistant to then-president Ronald Reagan. Despite the White House setting, it didn't go beyond making dumb jokes about politicians and current events. Jerry Dumas was, at the time, one of the writers for Mort Walker. It was well-drawn, at least, and the Reagan caricature was spot-on.   Lancelot (1970-1972) Drawn by Paul Coker Jr. (scripts by Frank "Penn" Ridgeway) About a newly wed couple. The title character is an rear end in a top hat husband who pushes his wife around. I really love Paul Coker Jr.'s artwork. Anyone who grew up watching those Rankin-Bass Christmas specials should be familiar with his design work. He was responsible for the look of Frosty the Snowman, the Miser Bros., and other characters. He pretty much defined the studio's style.    Tall Tales (1958-1966) By Al Jaffee No recurring characters, just a series of gags. The gimmick was the "tall" format. It was sold to newspapers as a way to fill up empty space in newspapers. There were many strips that was sold as fillers. In fact, "Peanuts" was one of them.

EasyEW posted:Out Our Way (May 10, 1924) This is weird. There was an earlier strip not too long ago that showed boys running to watch the circus come to town, one of whom was holding his pants up because he had been relieving himself when word came. This is a wild west show, and there's no mention of peeing, but there's still a kid holding up his pants. Looks like Williams wasn't above recycling strips. Want to know what else is weird?  Lio speaks!
