The Cubelodyte posted:Well, that sucks. RIP. Is Aragones now the only one left out of the usual gang of idiots? Pretty much. Had a chance to talk to him once. His dad was a movie producer and he used Sergio (who was a child at the time) as a stunt double whenever Sheena, Queen of the Jungle needed to do something dangerous.

Mad magazine was my favourite as a kid, the used book stores would be stuffed with them. Al Jaffee, Sergio Aragones and Don Martin were all so drat talented.

The german branch of MAD was very popular and good at its peak (70s-80s), mostly thanks to chief editor Herbert Feuerstein who did a great job making the often very american-specific jokes relatable and funny to a german audience. Al Jaffee, Dave Berg, Paul Coker, Don Martin & Sergio Aragones were all incredible. RIP to a legend.

that's a bummer, I loved my MAD mag subscription when I was a kid. I remembered the tiny little cartoon doodles they'd sneak in here and there between the 'frames' or w/e they were called.

Genesplicer posted:Each one was painted on masonite board, so could not actually be folded. Jaffe had to plan every one really carefully, because checking the final product was basically impossible until it was too late. He did one for every single monthly (and quarterly) issue but one. The thing that really killed them was moving the main office to California from New York. After that it was an imitation of what it once was. It was already going downhill but that killed it. They needed that east coast edge. The magazine started with insanely talented and serious artists who finally got to screw around. When the staff is full of people who think they are funny it lacks a genuine bite. That's why Cracked was so bad.
