RIP Al Jaffee of Mad Magazine Fame

[volinbham]

102 - dang.

Mad Magazine was an integral part of my childhood. I transitioned to National Lampoon but never would have gone there without Mad and to some extent Cracked.

Al Jaffee, famed Mad magazine cartoonist, dies at age 102

I was into Mad before getting into comics. Jokes were going over my head but I loved the satire of familiar movies and TV.

But those fold ins on the back were always fun.
