It's hard to go wrong with a quick read of a Spy vs. Spy book. Simple slapstick with fantastic artwork by Antonio Prohias. Don't expect Woody Allen or Jon Stewart intelligensia humor here - this is Three Stooges with a Cold War twist.

Whenever I read one of these, I wish there was a collection of Prohias' praised Cuban cartoons that he created before fleeing the Castro regime.

It's a simple formula: 1 Spy vs. Spy paperback = Ten minutes of enjoyment.

See my review for the fifth book.

Just as violent and heretical as when I "read" it in middle school. Literally the same copy too (that was sort of a pun). "Read" is in quotes because there is little actual text. It's good to cleanse the palate now and again after a rich diet of the linguistic turn, stream-of-consciousness, a historical science, the road to atheism, cross-cultural identity, and Cham architecture. This review now has more words than the book being reviewed.

The Third MAD Dossier of Spy vs. Spy, by Antonio Prohías. 3/5
Cartoon carnage! Craz7 and zany.

Mindless drivel? Yeah, but at the end of a hard day's work, who doesn't need a few chuckles.

This is so awesome and it has cool episode names but how about the MAD MAgazine put a name and even the Cartoons should put a name of the Episodes as well as visible.
