This week returns with the start of 1954's Mad THE COMIC BOOK, #11 and a sweet little treat!
Harvey Kurtzman and Wally Wood's take on Alex Raymond's great comic strip "Flash Gordon"..."Flesh Garden!".
This was another tale from those hallowed days when Mad was a comic book and not a magazine, that was reprinted time and time again through my childhood in black and white and poured over by me each and every time.
Here it is in glorious 4 colro goodness, the way old Bill Gaines intended it to be.
Enjoy!
And in case ya think I don't love ya after last weeks void, here's the second story from this issue to make up for lost time...Basil Wolverton's first full-blown contribution to Mad that I posted right h'yar!
Now, tell me who don't love who!!!
Talk to you soon.

Jeff: I've said it before (here, I think); and I'll say it again: Wally Wood's cartoony stuff is my favorite Wood!
Agree with Mykal; it has such a fun breezy feel to it, with various influences, yet always pure Wood (dat what she said last night nyuck ny*)
Sweet stuff! Great post!
