I've seen the covers online, but are Raiders of a Lost Art (7 pages), Inbanana Jones and the Temple of Goons (5), & Inbanana Jones and His Last Crude Days (4) posted anywhere in full? Because... I could scan and submit them. How and where, I'm not sure. These are the original black and whites. These days Mad likes to colorize old features, and will probably publish an all-Indy issue as the movie nears (if they haven't already) including scraps like this one. Suggestions?

HA! Thats great, totally brings me back to 4th or 5th grade, when I used to read MAD, I think the simpsons did a great tribute to MAD once.

Other articles they've done:
"Do-It-Yourself Indiana Jones Sequel" (March 1986)
"Suggested Titles for the Next Indiana Jones Movie" (Feb 2005)

Twice in the 90's they gathered everythng Star Wars in one issue, so hopefully they'll do the same with Indy soon.

I've got a copy of the "Suggested Titles" one. Yes, that's right. Violet Indy decided a long time ago, that MAD made more sense than Cosmopolitan. :p

one for LC? I must have missed that.
In the US the issues are #228 Jan. 1982, #250 Oct. 1984, #291 Dec. 1989.

Mort Drucker's art should look familiar. He drew the poster for American Graffiti.
And in January 1991: "At the first MAD art auction, long-time MAD fans Steven Spielberg and George Lucas waste a lot of money to purchase original MAD cover art spoofing many of their movies. Spielberg, who is completely out of control, also buys the cover of MAD #1."

Use an image editing program like Photoshop, Paintshop Pro, GIMP, Irfanview, Picasa etc.

Just recently a Mad book was released with every joke they ever made about Star Wars. I wonder if an Indy book is following in its footsteps?

I was thinking the same thing. How cool would that be? I would think so and I will be buying that too. I really enjoy a good MAD movie parody. Their SW and X-Men ones were really awesome.

That sounds incredibly cool... I'd love to get my hands on that. Is it a BOOK or just a magazine?

... how much you wanna bet they make fun of Indy's age on the MAD cover for KOTCS?
