>>> Mad Magazine had an enormous influence on me
Same. It's almost incredulous to me there was a time you could go down to the local news stand and purchase some thing like Mad. Subversion on a mass scale. Aimed at basically elementary school kids.
A single highlight from Frank Jacobs epic career: 1976 "Keep on Trekkin'", A Mad Star Trek Musical ;)

- pseudolus 6y agoIf some "Enterprising" souls want to turn this into a real-life musical they would probably be guaranteed an interesting cross-segment of Mad Magazine fans and Star Trek fans.
- kstrauser 6y agoA teacher took a look at my copy of Mad and lost her mind about “that filth” I was reading, and told my dad. She didn’t know that one of my earliest memories was sitting on his lap while he read “Don Martin Drops 13 Stories” to me, with funny voices to make me laugh. Thanks, Dad. I passed the favor down to my own kids.
- heresie-dabord 6y ago> It's almost incredulous to me there Incredible, not incredulous. Unless you are intentionally reviving 17th century English.[1] The Mad writers were literate and Frank Jacobs most of all.
