Former Mad magazine editor Al Feldstein died yesterday in Montana. Back in the 1970s, I must’ve read every issue at least a dozen times. I tried to write like Dick DeBartolo, draw like Mort Drucker, and engineer Fold-Ins like Al Jaffee. For better or worse, Mr. Feldstein’s magazine made me the sardonic misanthrope I am today. Mad‘s tribute is here.
Never could leave on a family vacation without some special reading material for the kids that they didn’t get to see until we were on our way in the car or motohome…and that stack of fun little paperback mags always had MAD on top…loved it…
