"IT'S LIKE CELEBRATING 45 YEARS OF A TOOTHACHE" 

______________________________


THIS 5-VOLUME COLLECTION OF CRACKED MAGAZINE WAS A LOT OF FUN TO DO.  CRACKED RAN FOR 45 YEARS BEFORE IT FINALLY CEASED PUBLICATION.

I WAS ALWAYS A BIG FAN OF CRACKED AS A KID AND JUST LOVED JOHN SEVERIN'S ARTWORK. I ALSO LOVED THE QUIRKY HUMOR IN CRACKED. DON'T KNOW WHAT TO SAY, I JUST LIKED IT BETTER THAN MAD. MANY PEOPLE DON'T KNOW THIS BUT MANY OF MAD'S "MADDEST" ARTISTS ALSO WORKED FOR CRACKED IN THE EARLY DAYS,  JACK DAVIS  BEING THE MOST NOTABLE (ASIDE FROM JOHN SEVERIN, OF COURSE. EVEN JACK "KING" KIRBY WORKED FOR CRACKED.  THEN DECADES LATER THE GREAT DON MARTIN JUMPED SHIP TO WORK FOR CRACKED NOT TO MENTION CURRENT MAD ARTIST TOM RICHMOND GOT HIS START AT CRACKED

FOR THE MOST PART, IT'S CHRONOLOGICAL.  BUT I ALSO MADE SOME "THEMED" VOLUMES. ONE IS "SUPERHERO PARODIES" ON ONE SIDE AND "MONSTER PARTY" ISSUES ON THE FLIP SIDE, ONE COLLECTS MOSTLY MOVIE AND TV SHOW PARODIES ETC.

I DECIDED TO MAKE THEM "FLIP BOOKS" MEANING THERE ARE NO BACK COVERS, WHEN YOU GET HALFWAY THROUGH EACH VOLUME, IT TURNS UPSIDE DOWN.  SO, YOU TURN THE BOOK OVER AND START AGAIN.
