MAD Magazine contributor confirms the publication will cease circulation
after almost 70 years

Pop culture 1 hour ago

The satirical publication, which once boasted a circulation of more than 2
million, is reportedly shutting down after 67 years, longtime MAD
contributor David DeGrand confirmed. The magazine, which has not made an
announcement, is known for its subversive covers and house style as well
as empowering the cartoonists who worked for it.

RIP MAD -- I recall when as students at SVA -- Harvey Kurtzman took us on a kind of class trip up the the offices
