An 'Idiotical' Idea

Last night while Googling ourselves (we had to do SOMETHING to keep from falling asleep during the GOP debate), we found this tweet from Cindy Ritzman:

It was accompanied by a photo of her son, Brody Hunt, playing a game of Sleeveface with the back cover ad from MAD #511. What was the ad for, you ask? Well, a little blog you might have heard of: The Idiotical.

We can barely tell where Brock ends and Alfred begins!

MAD at New York Comic Con

Come meet “The Usual Gang of Idiots!” MAD Editor John Ficarra will lead a MAD panel discussion (and potential melee) featuring the legendary Fold-In artist Al Jaffee, Spy vs. Spy writer/artist Peter Kuper, writer Desmond Devlin, art director Sam Viviano and the writer/producer of the MAD show on Cartoon Network, Kevin Shinick! It's on Sunday, October 16 at 12:15 at the Javits Center in New York City.

For directions, tickets and other info, click here.

One unlucky attendee to the panel will go home with a copy of the brand spanking new MAD Fold-In Collection, compliments of Chronicle Books! (No backsies!)

Come see for yourself why other comic conventions who have hosted MAD panels have all said the same thing: “Never again!”

Another One Bites the Dust — Sarah Palin Won’t Run for President

Reality television star and Fox News tool Sarah Palin announced yesterday that she won’t run for the Presidency in 2012, joining a long list of Republicans including Chris Christie, Donald Trump, Mike Huckabee, Mitch Daniels and Jeb Bush who have passed up a chance to preside over the decline of this once great nation. God Bless America!
