When I read “The Completely MAD Don Martin", I almost died laughing. He is after all, my all-time favorite cartoonist.At BookXcess in AmCorp Mall, Petaling Jaya, you can get this mammoth two-volume hardcover set at a bargain price of RM99.90! It is overflowing with absurdist gags that routinely bordered on the berserk – MAD’s MADdest artist featured a keen and detail-rich comedic sense that is sure to provoke illimitable laughter. Terrific stuff that is guaranteed to have you chuckling, chortling and cackling from panel one. Highly recommended!
Here’s a sample of his famous slapstick-y style:


^ Volume 2, p 99
Celtic cruised to an emphatic 6-0 win and progressed to the quarter finals of the Co-operative Insurance Cup at the expense of Inverness Caley Thistle, the brace of goals coming from Samaras (17, 37, 57); Hooper (21); and Stokes (penalty 74, 81).
As for Liverpool, the less said the better! The Reds made a shock Carling Cup exit in the third round as League Two's Northampton won 4-2 on penalties – the match had ended in a 2-2 tie. What has happened to Liverpool FC? They are no longer playing attacking football. They are no longer winning. Their fighting spirit seems to have deserted them.
