  One of the highlights of my renewed Mad experience was reconnecting with "Spy Vs. Spy" and discovering cartoonist Peter Kuper has taken over for the property's creator. While Kuper has maintained the same classic style of the strip, he's also managed to instill his own richer, slightly surreal spin on things at the same time. Ultimately though, I think I've outgrown Mad magazine, but that's not entirely a condemnation of the publication. It's more of an acknowledgement of who I was, who I've become and how my tastes have changed over the years. It was fun to revisit Mad again, if only to see some of the evolution and which traditions survived into the 21st century. Read Full Review
