I’m Mad about MAD!

By Lisa Ostella on February 19, 2022
Mad Magazine available at Time’s Tin Cup !

Who remembers MAD Magazine? I loved that edgy humor! MAD was a groundbreaking voice in social satire and an innovator of parodic humor!

Remember the comic strip Spy vs. Spy featured in MAD Magazine? That comic strip was authored by Antonio Prohias. He actually escaped Fidel Castro’s Cuban Regime. He was labeled a spy working with America’s CIA by Castro and had to escape to the U.S.A.

His experience of Castro labeling him a spy is what gave inspiration to the creation of Spy vs. Spy!
