Here’s another cover I did for MAD that just dropped… this time for one of their Barnes & Noble special issues. READ MORE

MAD just released a look at the cover of the next issue, MAD #49. Art by me! READ MORE
Here we are at the end of the line… for now (there’s a wrap up at the bottom of this post). This parody of the TV show “Severance” was just published in MAD #47 (Feb 2026) last month, and is the most recent piece I have done for them. It was written by my CLAPTRAP cohort Desmond Devlin. This piece was a bit of a pain to do. It came in late with a short deadline and just as I was leaving on a two week trip with The Lovely Anna and oldest daughter The Animated Elizabeth to visit our youngest daughter The Effervescent Gabrielle… READ MORE
Time again for another of the final steps along the stumbling trek that was my work for MAD Magazine. You will be relieved to know that this is the penultimate stop along that journey. In fact this piece was published in MAD #46, Dec 2025, which went on sale a mere three months ago! It was written by my CLAPTRAP partner-in-crime Desmond Delvin. This piece was a milestone for me. My very first published piece in MAD was in #399 (Dec 2000) which hit the stands in October of that year. This one dropped in October of 2025, marking 25 years of my being one… READ MORE
Time again for another step on the rapidly shrinking road that was a look back at my work for MAD Magazine! This feature was written by my CLAPTRAP co-conspirator Desmond Devlin and appeared in MAD #45, October 2025. It’s a mash up of different “Frankenstein” movies and a political piece. This issue was released just this past August, so we are only four months back now! I think this was the piece that convinced me, at least for now, that MAD really was going to keep doing some new content in every issue. Each time I got a new assignment it just seemed likely it… READ MORE
Here we go with another useless look back at my work for MAD Magazine, and we are very rapidly catching up to present day. This piece appeared in MAD #44 Aug 2025, which was on newsstands in June. That was only 6 months ago! This was written by my CLAPTRAP cohort Desmond Devlin. This issue was “Superman” themed, as it dropped right around the time the James Gunn “Superman” movie came out. It was yet another issue that featured multiple pages of new content (14 to be exact) all of which was Superman-centric. Des came up with this clever two pager where the guy who… READ MORE
Ho Ho Ho here we go with another (and closing in on the last) of the work I have done for MAD Magazine. We are rapidly closing in on Present day stuff! When I started doing this look back it seemed likely I had done my last piece for the magazine. MAD had become almost entirely reprint material, and other than the occasional cover it certainly looked like my run at MAD had come to an end. This particular piece changed that, at least for now. This wasn’t for a special political issue, or a tribute piece to a recently passed UGOI, or for any… READ MORE
Here we go with another look back at what passed for my career with MAD Magazine! In this episode we have a gander at the first genuinely NEW piece I’d done for the interior of the magazine (not including tributes to deceased members of the Usual Gang of Idiots) since the movie parody of “The Batman” for MAD #28 AKA the 70th anniversary issue… TWO YEARS PRIOR. That’s right, MAD had a full on two years of essentially no new content and really almost four years if you exclude that anniversary issue. This issue was coming out right as the 2024 elections took place, so… READ MORE
