I grew up reading Mad and found this site where all the issues are there to read. A walk down memory lane. Mad was unique because it had no paid advertising and only existed on sales and paid subscriptions. The humour/satire was very good and the art work was iconic.

Nice!!!! Thanks for the info. It's actually free?
My sister is a big fan of the show Columbo. I still refer to it as "Columboob", which I picked up from MAD many years ago.
 
Thanks @downbound123 !

Anyone know where I might find some of the old Hustler cartoons?

In particular, I'm looking for a scene where two elephants are shooting guns back at two hunters (dressed fully Bwanna Clyde Batty!) hiding behind some rocks.

Caption was something like "No fair, they're shooting back!"


Another one was two big hairy gay men, one with a fucking huge fat dick and the other leaving the bathroom with a big shit log falling out horizontally from his gaping asshole!

Fcuk, there were some really clever cartoons in Hustler. Same with their jokes! Larry Flynt sure did blaze a lot of trails.

It was actually "Clodumbo", my parents had a convenience store when I was a child, I would spend countless hours reading Mad, Cracked, and all other comic books.

That brings back a memory. There was one where a guy and a rather big black lady were engaged in 69 on a bed (she was on top) and the door bursts open by the police and she shits herself all over his face.
Not sure where you can find them as I have looked for that one without any luck.

As far as I can tell it is. I have only read 2 or 3 and have had no pop ups saying I have reached my free limit and must subscribe.

Maybe it was CRACKED magazine that referred to him as Columboob.
Nice perk as a child. Did you get to puruse any of the more adult magazines?

I recall one Hustler cartoon involving 2 cowboys out in the desert. One of them gets bitten by a snake on his penis. As he sits there with a panicked look on his face and a red, throbbing penis the other guy says to him "sorry Tex but I ain't sucking the poison out of that".

I remember that one also.

Every Issue of MAD from 1952 until at least 2018 is available here to read or download:


Scrolling down a bit, there are some links with 100 issues together.

I read MAD until I was about 12, then 'graduated' to National Lampoon. The National Lampoon parody of MAD is in the October, 1971 Issue:

Think I was in sixth or seventh grade or so sometime in the early 60s when every song seemed to be about a new dance "craze," all some variation or other on the Twist. Mad came out with an LP--an album--with some damn good catchy tunes, all parodies. One was about a new "dance" called The Pretzel. I smile to this day when I think about the lyrics' instructions: 'First you put your left leg up, cross it over onto your right leg, then put your right leg up, and cross it over to you left..your doing The Pretzel." (Or something like that.)
 
Oh, and Mad's parody of the flick The Wild One starring Marlon Branflakes is priceless:
