Any Mad Magazine fans out there ?

I used to collect those when I was in Jr. College. Had them in 100s. Annuals, paperbacks and all. Ofcourse second hand. If I remember there used to be a magazine seller in Bandra who used to keep them. Fort area also.
Absolutely Silly, Smart, Hilariously funny, Nonsensical, sometimes crass humor. Great cartoonists. Some Legendary Artists. Well they are shutting off :(. My snobbish friends used to dislike it. But who cares in those days:p:D. Later issues (90s) were not good though.

Regards

I still have some, mostly collections like 'Don Martin', Spy vs. Spy, 'One day at the ...', etc. I loved them then, and I love them now.
 
"What Me Worry"

Alfred E Neuman, Don Martin, Spy vs Spy, Al Jaffee and the Mad Magazine Folding Back cover were my favourites.
Sorry to see them go but their quality had dropped off from their heyday IMO.

RIP!!
It was coming for a while now, I guess.
Still love Don Martin. Picked up collectors edition at dirt price a couple of years ago.
The guys at MAD were one of the first to take memes to a truly bizarre level.
Cheers,

FiftyFifty, Prem, Nikhil, Raghu comforting to know that I am not alone :D
Even William Gains Q & A pages were funny. Good old days
Best regards.
 
Sharing some good ones for old time sake!

Hiten, I took the liberty of editing the subject of your post.
Let's enjoy sharing some good ones one here from MAD magazine.

Awesome thread, Hiten! Though it’s sad to see the passing of a legendary publication. Still, as others have pointed out, their heydays were definitely over.
For me, Don Martin was their resident genius. His ‘sound effects’ were a class apart!
Picked this up from Blossoms many years ago. Worth every penny:
Complete Don Martin

FYI, one of DM’s most famous album covers:
