Another MAD #6 Sneak Peek!
Here’s a look at my art for the splash page for MAD #6’s six page feature “Merry Poopins Goes to the White House”, written by Ian Boothby. I had a lot of fun with this one. It’s not a direct parody of the new Mary Poppins movie, but rather an original spoof of the Mary Poppins character in general, and what would happen if she was asked to come to the White House to work her “magic”. Ian did a great job not just on the story but on doing lyrical parodies (“Sing to the Tune of….”) of several of the songs from the original Mary Poppins ala Frank Jacobs. That’s not easy to do, and he nailed all of them. My favorite is when Sarah Huckabee Sanders sings “A Spoonful of Bull$#!t” on page 4.
Oh, you want to see that, and read the rest of the parody? What do you think this is, a furshlugginer library? Go out and buy a copy of MAD #6, schmuck!

Absolutely outstanding – the writing and, of course, the art. You looked like you had a lot of fun with this one!
Quick Question: Who’s that guy behind Road Runner and Michael Flynn?
That is Michael York in his character from the classic sci-Fi movie “Logan’s Run”
Oh damn! I thought he was that other young guy implicated in Trump-Russia connections a while back. Thanks!
