Magazines : Mad

Rating: - Sad
I started reading this magazine in the early 90's, when I was a kid. My dad had a few from the 60's and 70's, and I have expanded my collection since then to include a good amount from the 80's. That stuff was brilliant.

Artists die, we know that. New artists and writers can be good, but the MAD magazine of the 2000's isn't worth buying. Why did MAD start putting in ads? Wasn't it making enough money by itself? I loved MAD for the fact that it was ad-free, and the brilliant writing and artwork, laced with biting satire. Now, the humor in there is more of the "potty humor" level, and is the kind of thing juveniles laugh over.

Now it's not worth the paper it's printed on, and CRACKED magazine has gone the same way. Why must good, beautiful things be ruined?

You see, this is why we can't have nice things.

The Usual Gang of Idiots have been creating funny words and pictures since the 1950s. And they haven't let up in all that time! I get a kick out of every new issue. Definitely subscribe. You'll be glad you did.

Rating: - Gets my son to read !
Trying to get my son to read is like pulling teeth. Finding something he will enjoy reading has been difficult. He just turned 12 and as he sees the lastest movies and popular TV shows he can really relate to this magazine. I am glad I ordered it in early November as the first issued arrived this week just in time for Christmas. I can wait to see his face when he pulls it out of his stocking..of course Mom has already read it!

I brought this magazine to cheer me up. I love the graphic's and their sense of humor. The magazine came really fast after I subscribe to it. It is a pleasure to read.
