Have a great time, Tom! It’s wonderful to see MAD on the move, and I look forward to learning more about the new TV show!
By the way, after all this time of knowing him, do you still have to pinch yourself when you hang out with Sergio? It’s gotta be a head-trippin’ blast.
Thanks! I will have some fun, I guarantee.
Sergio is a trip all right… I still can’t understand a word he says but he’s a great guy.
What about MAD’s maddest writer, Dick DeBartolo?
I don’t think Dick goes to Comic Con… never seen him there anyway. Course I’ve only been there three times….
