Mad is an American humor magazine founded by editor Harvey Kurtzman and publisher William Gaines in 1952.

Debuting in August 1952 ( cover date October – November ), Mad began as a comic book published by EC, then located in lower Manhattan at 225 Lafayette Street.

When Feldstein retired in 1984, he was replaced by the team of Nick Meglin and John Ficarra, who co-edited Mad for the next two decades.

Its approach was described by Dave Kehr in The New York Times: " Bob Elliott and Ray Goulding on the radio, Ernie Kovacs on television, Stan Freberg on records, Harvey Kurtzman in the early issues of Mad: all of those pioneering humorists and many others realized that the real world mattered less to people than the sea of sounds and images that the ever more powerful mass media were pumping into American lives.

In 2010, Sergio Aragones said, " Mad is written by people who never thought ' Okay, I ’ m going to write for kids ,' or ' I ’ m going to write for adults.

" During Kurtzman's final two-plus years at EC, Mad appeared erratically ( ten issues appeared in 1954, followed by eight issues in 1955 and four issues in 1956 ).

Many of these featured new covers by Mad cover artist Norman Mingo.
