When Mad became a surprise hit as a comic book in 1953 (after the early issues lost money) other comics publishers were quick to jump onto the bandwagon, eventually bringing out a dozen imitations with titles like FLIP, WHACK, NUTS, CRAZY, WILD, RIOT, EH, UNSANE, BUGHOUSE, and GET LOST. The Sincerest Form of Parody collects the best and the funniest material from these comics, including parodies of movies (20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, From Here To Eternity), TV shows (What''s My Line, The Late Show), comic strips (Little Orphan Annie, Rex Morgan), novels (I, the Jury), plays (Come Back, Little Sheba), advertisements (Rheingold Beer, Charles Atlas), classic literature (''The Lady or the Tiger''), and history (Pancho Villa). Some didn''t even try for parody, but instead published odd, goofy, off-the-wall stories. These earnest copiers of Mad realized that Will Elder''s cluttered ''chicken fat'' art was a good part of Mad''s success, and these pages are densely packed with all sorts of outlandish and bizarre gags that make for hours of amusing reading.
