Frequently Asked Questions
What era of MAD Magazine do you carry?
Our MAD Magazine inventory spans multiple decades, from the classic EC Comics-era issues through the Gaines years and into the modern period. We carry regular issues as well as MAD Super Specials, oversized annuals, and related publications. Specific issue numbers are noted in each listing.
What makes certain MAD issues more collectible than others?
Early issues (particularly from the 1950s and 1960s) and issues featuring notable cultural parodies, iconic cover art, or the debut of popular recurring features command the most collector interest. Issues spoofing landmark films or TV shows are also especially sought after, as are issues in unusually fine condition given their age.
What is a MAD Super Special?
MAD Super Specials were larger-format annual publications that combined reprinted classic material with new content. They ran from 1970 through the 1990s and are collectible in their own right — particularly early issues in fine condition, which are increasingly scarce.
What condition are your issues in?
Every issue is individually graded and described. We note any wear, creasing, writing, or other markings so you can buy with confidence.
How are magazines shipped?
All issues ship bagged and boarded in rigid mailers to prevent bending in transit.
Do you ship internationally?
Yes — Keystone Crypt ships worldwide, with rates calculated at checkout.
