It's a work, we generally go with the logo, which is what that is. Unless I'm mistaken. The only real exception is Webcomics.

Becky: Who are you? The Mysterious Stranger: An angel. Huck: What's your name? The Mysterious Stranger: Satan.I noticed MAD doesn't have a link to this discussion. How do we fix that?
Can't. The article is in the Magazine namespace, and links from here can only go to the Main namespace. Oh, woah, how did you do that? I thought the forum software always appended "Main." to the beginning of whatever you type.

Becky: Who are you? The Mysterious Stranger: An angel. Huck: What's your name? The Mysterious Stranger: Satan.Can we at least use a classic magazine cover from the 1940s or 50s? I prefer their original artwork over the grungier Hotter and Sexier stuff they use today.
You are displaying abnormally high compulsions to over-analyze works of fiction and media. Diagnosis: TV Tropes Addiction.As long as it's not like their 90s-Present image when the original artists left, I'll be fine with it. (Bonus Points if it has Spy Vs Spy on it.) That's the only request I ask please.

The Mansion of EDidn't MAD have the infamous "buy this magazine or we'll kill this puppy" cover? That's a pretty good example of the Nothing Is Sacred style of their humor.

Damn and blast.

Anyone know any humorous covers we could use on the page?
