One of the worst photoshopped Mad covers ever! Don’t let Mort see it!!!
The Avengers was the superhero movie parody over the summer. Is The Dark Knight Rises going to be the first Batman movie to NOT get the full blown MAD parody treatment??? 🙁
Ummmm… nope. 😀
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm…??
MAD also skipped the kevlar-nippled cinematic classic “Batman and Robin,” even though it received 4 stars from the critics. (Unfortunately, there were hundreds of critics and their reviews added up to 4 stars.)
Mort Drucker and Arnie Kogen did that parody in
MAD #359.
There was a special Batman issue of MAD over the summer that had full parodies of every Batman movie (except Dark Knight Rises, though Aragones did his thing with it), the Adam West TV show, and a bunch of other cool stuff. It’s a must have!!

I am not familiar with Anton Emdin, the artist for the Twilight parody. Has he worked with Mad before on any other full length satires?
Anton is an illustrator from Australia and has done several pieces for the U.S. MAD in the Fundalini Pages and some other articles, but this is his first movie parody for the American version of the magazine. I know he’s done at least one TV parody for the Australian MAD (Glee). His work is exceptional, and no doubt we’ll be treated to more of it here in the U.S.
I wish Mad would do more “Lighter side of…” Did they ever do a collection for Dave Berg, like they have with Sergio and Mort?
Wish you would have done the Twilight parody. The other guy’s work was good but you would have captured the look of the movies more.
