Stan Lee and the Marvel Bullpen spoof themselves in these MAD-style stories reprinted from issue #8 of Not Brand Ecch. The newest hero in the Marvel Universe is Forbush-Man, whose costume is a union suit and a saucepan with eyeholes cut in it. Written by Roy Thomas and Gary Friedrich, with art by the likes of Gene Colan, Tom Sutton and Marie Severin, who really did work for MAD in the early days. No relation to Crazy Magazine other than the title.


Artists Information

Eugene Jules Colan was an American comic book artist best known for his work for Marvel Comics, where his signature titles include the superhero series Daredevil, the cult-hit satiric series Howard the Duck, and The Tomb of Dracula, considered one of comics' classic horror series. He co-created the Falcon, the first African-American superhero in mainstream comics, Carol Danvers, who would become Ms. Marvel and Captain Marvel, and the supernatural vampire hunter Blade.

Marie Severin was an American comics artist and colorist best known for her work for Marvel Comics and the 1950s' EC Comics. She is an inductee of the Will Eisner Comics Hall of Fame and the Harvey Awards Hall of Fame. Frank Jacobs, in his 1972 biography of EC publisher William M. Gaines, wrote, "There was Marie Severin, Gaines's colorist, and a very moral Catholic, who made her feelings known by coloring dark blue any panel she thought was in bad taste. [EC editor Al] Feldstein called her 'the conscience of EC."'
