MAD #1 (1952)

High Value: $20,000

Minimum Value: $240

This historic comic book was first published in 1952, and it quickly became a cultural phenomenon. MAD #1 contains a collection of satirical pieces that poke fun at various aspects of American culture, including advertising, politics, and Hollywood.

One of the most famous pieces in this first issue is "Superduperman," a parody of Superman that imagines the hero as a corporate sellout more interested in endorsing products than saving the day. The issue also features a comic strip called "Greasemonkey," which follows the wacky adventures of a car mechanic.

MAD #1 may have been published nearly 70 years ago, but its humor remains relevant and hilarious today. This comic book is a must-have for any serious collector, as it marks the beginning of one of the most iconic and enduring satirical publications in American history.
