Hey Humbugs! Don't Panic! It's madder, it's crazier, it's sicker, it trumps them all! You'll crack up with this lampooning book! Brilliantly combine satire magazines, super-hero send-ups, monster magazines, sexy teenage girls ala Betty and Veronica, surrealism, beatniks, hippies, and wackiness and you've got the inimitable Madhouse. Madhouse was the birthplace of the bewitching Sabrina the Teenage Witch, Captain Sprocket, and the comic host with the most, Clyde Didit. Archie's best artists, Dan "Betty and Veronica" DeCarlo, Sam "Jughead" Schwartz, and even cartoonists like Wally Wood filled Madhouse's pages with the laughs, lunacy, and nutty fun — oh, and hot teenage chicks!
Craig Yoe collects the best of the best stories and introduces Madhouse with rare art and behind-the-scenes secrets.
