Not "WTF Certified" = I'm not interested.
I think some of the other MAD variants were better.

Yeah the MAD cover of GL is better... this of Superman would be better animated.

I used to love these; I had this ratty old paperback of 'Snappy Answers' as a kid. I think they were my favorite part of MAD.

Over the span of my life, I've been a HUGE Al Jaffee fan! I suspect his MAD work, I read as a kid, helped form my personality. I'd buy this cover in a hot second.

Well these days, KCallen, your work is also worth snatching up in a hot second.
I dunno why they bothered with he "WTF" brand, you'd think MAD and gatefold covers would be able to stand on their own."Superman, are you really gonna let those drug dealers get away?"
"You bet! See, I'm right HERE, while they... are over THERE."
