MAD Spy vs Spy: An Explosive Celebration

MAD Spy vs Spy: An Explosive Celebration by The Editors of MAD Magazine. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9781618931597.

MAD Magazines iconic Spy vs Spy comic strip--now in full color! One of the most celebrated comic strips in MADs history has a deceptively simple concept: twin spies, one clad in black and the other in white, outdoing each other in elaborately stupid plots to achieve the others demise. Now, for the first time, MAD presents a new Spy vs Spy anthology celebrating 150 classic adventures in blazing full color. Bonus material created exclusively for this collection includes a foreword by superfan Lewis Black, Sergio Aragonés illustrated memoir of the Spies creator, Antonio Prohias, an ode to master cartoonist Peter Kuper, and new interpretations of the Spy characters by 15 acclaimed graphic artists: Orlando Arocena, Peter Bagge, Tom Bunk, André Carrilho, Darwyn Cooke, Evan Dorkin, Gilbert and Jaime Hernandez, Jim Lee, Hermann Mejia, Tony Millionaire, Nathan Sawaya, Yuko Shimizu, Bill Sienkiewicz, Bob Staake, and Rich Webber. Additional special features include dynamic charts and graphs to deconstruct and quantify which spy has "won" the most through the comic strips volatile history, the most popular weapons and ploys used in the strip, means of death, and more, plus a beautifully printed endpaper featuring David Anson Russos interactive maze, where readers can play as either white or black spy.
