MAD Predicts Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury in 1999

MAD has a history of predicting the future. We call it "MAD E.S.P." Eagle-eyed reader Jimmy Blake wrote in recently, pointing out that MAD cast Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury in the article "Upcoming Movies Based on Comic Books" way back in 1999. That's a full nine years before Jackson played the role in Iron Man! If you want to know who will be the fourth actor to play The Hulk after Mark Ruffalo inevitably gets the boot, you've come to the wrong place. It's not that we don't know — we're just not telling.
