Mad Follies #3
In "If Comic Strip Characters Behaved Like Ordinary People," Don Reilly and Wally Wood deliver a sharp, satirical take on mid-20th-century consumer culture, imagining what happens when iconic brands like RCA and MGM, or Mr. Clean and Old Dutch, are forced to merge into a single, absurd entity. The story’s clever premise unfolds through a series of surreal, deadpan vignettes, all rendered with Wally Wood’s precise, expressive art and Norman Mingo’s sharp, iconic cover.
