I have every issue of Mad Magazine from 1980 to present. I also just went to a used comic store last week and bought 20 issues of Mad from the 1970's for about $80 dollars and now you mean to tell me I can have EVERY single issue from the 1950's to 2006 on one putrid disc for only $32.99? Jumping veeblefetzers! Guess I'll just have to burn my original issues and get this moronic thing today!
Rating: - Excellent!!!!
Its the best collection of MAD magazines out there and should not be missed by MAD fans.The PDF file quality is excellent and is easy to read and carry around in various gadgets.
Its a steal for $33 at Amazon.Go get it!!

For those of us who'd grown up with Mad Magazine, the kind who ran to the variety story on the corner looking for every new issue (sometimes paying, sometimes not) and grabbed those special edition paperbacks off the racks (again, sometimes paying...), ABSOLUTELY MAD MAGAZINE: 50+ YEARS is something we all should have sitting on our shelves.
The 2 DVD-ROM set spans the years 1952-2006, including issues 1-460, along with the XL and Super Special editions as well. As a bonus this collection contains video clips of interviews with the magazine's writers and the Spy vs. Spy animated shorts from the early days of the late-night comedy series Mad TV.
The downside to this DVD-ROM set is minimal. Unfortunately, there are resolution problems with some the pages, especially with Sergio Aragones' Mad Marginals. Otherwise, this is an exceptionally comprehensive collection which will provide a longtime Mad Magazine fan with much nostalgia and enjoyment.

Absolutely MAD Magazine - 50+ Years I read lots of reviews about this before purchasing it. The reviews that concerned me the most were the ones about the quality of the scans... I started getting Mad in January of 1982. That DVD ROM issue looks about as good as the original did... Keep in mind I don't think the originals really looked all that great... The scan isn't going to be better than the original... I mean... you can't shine a turd... I personally didn't buy the magazine with the intent of matting and framing it...
It's funny stuff low or high quality! For $35.00 you really can't go wrong... You just can't...
If you do buy it, when it comes to looking at the super specials... You have to click on the table of contents to view the pages... It took me a while to figure this out...:( This is because most of the super specials are just repeats of older mags... The table of contents is links to the older mags...
