Mad

For the latest issue of MAD magazine, Alfred E. Neuman takes center stage as Eleven. Inside, no Hawkins, Indiana resident is spared from the Demogorgan writer and illustrator duo Desmond Devlin and Tom Richmond in the magazine’s binge-mock, titled Strangely Thin.

“It’s a story about a boy who goes missing until he gets found,” says the description, “The first suspects you see are the ones who did it. Both of the love stories go nowhere. And the one character who can stop the monster takes her sweet time getting around to it, because if she did her badass routine in the first episode, it also would’ve been the last episode. The mystery is: where’s the mystery?”
