*Mad & Other Parody: We refresh our lists of the premier parody magazine with half a dozen of the UK Mad Specials, ranging from the 1970 “Collected Ravings From”, through a selection of numbered Specials (#11, #12, #13 and #15) from the 1970s, and closing out with the 1985 ‘Worst From’ Special (#53). Backing them up, there’s a single vintage issue of Cracked, the shameless Mad-imitator which ran from 1958 to 2007. This is #17, from 1960, and features the artistic talents of John Severin, Jack Davis and Russ Heath, amongst others.
