ATU525 – RoutineFactory with Ger Apeldoorn and Pat Opat

"Behaving Madly" is an irresistible window into a forgotten era of occasionally first-rate (but mostly second- and third-rate) satire comics of the 1950s. Ger Apeldoorn and Craig Yoe – the latter of whom appeared on Mr. Media to talk about his book, "Secret Identity: The Fetish Art of Superman’s Co-creator Joe Shuster" – have crafted a must-read for humor fans of all generations. (Search the Mr. Media archives for previous interviews with Mad's Al Jaffee, Arnold Roth and Sergio Aragones.)

Time Codes:  00:00:25 - Introduction 00:02:24 - Setup of interview 00:03:34 - Interview with Ger Apeldoorn  01:06:35 - Wrap up 01:08:17 - Contact us   Just in time for the San Diego Comic-Con -- where he and Craig Yoe will be meeting with fans and signing books -- Ger Apeldoorn is on the show to talk with Derek about his new book, Behaving Madly: Zany, Loco, Cockeyed, Rip-off, Satire Magazines (IDW/Yoe Books). It's a beautifully produced work that highlights the many knockoffs of Bill Gaines's Mad that appeared between 1954 to 1959, attempting to capitalize on the kind of success the Usual Gang of Idiots enjoyed once the title changed to magazine format. These Mad wannabes appeared with such titles as From Here to Insanity, Cockeyed, Bunk!, SNAFU, Lunatickle, Who Goofed?, Thimk, Shook Up, Frenzy, Frantic!, Loco, Zany, and Nuts! You might think -- or thimk -- that these rip-offs would all be cheesy and subpar, but as Ger makes clear, these short-lived satire magazines included work from such comics legends as Jack Davis, Al Jaffee, Steve Ditko, Jack Kirby, Joe Kubert, Howard Nostrand, Bob Powell, Ross Andru, Basil Wolverton, and Russ Heath. Derivative and second-rate? Perhaps. But the selections in Behaving Madly are no laughing matter. Well...actually, they are. Check out this great promo from Yoe Books!
