Antonio Prohias lives on!

They had to go SOMEwhere after the Astros, erm, canned them.

Don’t know much about NCAA football arch rivalries but does this mean the Spy in White works for Ohio State?

Nice bow toward Spy vs. Spy, from the original Mad Magazine.

Three guesses: the White Spy works for Michigan State.

Spy vs Spy; Someone is giving away their age.

…now, that’s funny…

Don’t think I’ve ever heard him speak…

That’s just MAD

And what is the " BIG " deal anyway ?

It’s not every day you see a reference to Mad Magazine in a comic strip.

The shade of Prohías pauses and smiles in approval.

To change the subject—-my eyeballs have finally gone back in their head after watching the Jets—Giants game.

I refuse to believe that was football. It was some brand new sport both teams were making up as they went along

lots of schools have alumni that’ll do it for free (maybe tickets)

I love it when they honor the classics. Prohias slayed me every time.

Martin’s characters had to be the inspiration for “duh..”

I enjoyed MAD very much as a teen (late 1960’s). Before that, I was somehow under the impression that it was borderline illegal, at least for kids to have, and one wouldn’t want to have their parents or teachers catching them with it! However,after a teacher I had referenced it for the concept of satire, and my dad started quoting from it, I realized that maybe it was okay after all, even if my mother’s only reaction was “ugh!”. By the way, I always wanted to know more about the third spy (a woman) that occasionally showed up in the Spy vs. Spy (vs. Spy) strips.

Oh, but I miss “MAD” so much.

most excellent

i always wondered what b happened to those spies
