Another vestige of formative years bites the dust.
>>Mad magazine — the iconic satirical publication with freckle-faced, jug-eared mascot Alfred E. Neuman — will soon no longer appear on newsstands after nearly seven decades.
The magazine, which was billed as a creation of “The Usual Gang of Idiots,” announced it will stop running issues with new writing this fall — with the exception of the annual year-end issue, ABC News reported.
Beginning with issue No. 11, the publication will only be available through subscriptions and comic book stores. “After issue #10 this fall there will no longer be new content — except for the end-of-year specials which will always be all new,” the publisher DC Comics said in a statement. “So starting with issue #11 the magazine will feature classic, best-of and nostalgic content from the last 67 years.”<<
