MAD Magazine's Man of Steel

[Deleted]

MAD Magazine has Man of Steel mad-libs. Here's a few I did ...

In order to escape the destruction of Manti Te'o's love life Jor-El sends his son to earth in a mid-level sports sedan. After landing in a mess of trouble with ol' Boss Hogg it is discovered the child possesses amazing luck with claw games. And although he maintains a small but charming bed and breakfast he still struggles to find his place in NBC's Thursday night lineup. But when the world is threatened by Paul Giamatti's sexual advances he must become Chris Brown's friend and confidante and fight for truth, justice, and an ESPY.

In order to escape the destruction of a mom and pop grocery store Jor-El sends his son to earth in a FedEx overnight envelope. After landing in the midst of a Nicki-Mariah feud it is discovered the child possesses amazing bladder control. And although he maintains a wary distrust of Pinterest he still struggles to find his place in Kaley Cuoco's inner circle. But when the world is threatened by a Teen Mom pregnancy scare he must become America's Next Top Model and fight for truth, justice, and the best Black Friday deals possible.

In order to escape the destruction of Larry Hagman's legacy Jor-El sends his son to earth in an ironic onesie. After landing in a Chuck E. Cheese ball pit it is discovered the child possesses amazing recall of hockey scores. And although he maintains a strictly platonic relationship with Ke$ha he still struggles to find his place in the "Brony" community. But when the world is threatened by that grumpy cat he must become Nickelback's biggest fan and fight for truth, justice, and unlimited texting and data.

Mods, apologies if is a repeat thread- of course kill it if it is-

Actually looked at the MAD magazine MOS--- and to my great suprise, it's a nice treat in that it's not only on nice paper and a (relative) cheap price- but that it reprints the STM/SII/SIII parodies drawn by the great caricature artist Mort Drucker. Regardless of how one feels about MOS, I picked up a couple- well worth it for the Drucker caricatures of Reeve, Kidder, and company.

For $5--- HIGHLY recommended!

Also bought the expensive "Man of Steel" movie hardback book--- was disappointed by the lack of promotion images- (would have loved to see more of the poster designs/etc.)- hopefully it's not a case where WB wants to split an 'art of Man of Steel' book with this one. More details later, but it's of course more detailed than the 'official movie souvenir' book--- but since it's about 8 times the price, it should be!

I have the paperback tie-in. I also picked up the MAD Magazine, mostly for the extras and the Superman Returns parody. I have the collected MAD About Superheroes, but SR wasn't in that version, just Smallville. I was hoping for a Man of Steel parody, but I guess it's coming in a future issue?

I'd also like to get that hardback book. I saw that the one for SR can be found through Amazon for as low as $5. The Dark Knight Trilogy book is out there as well, but I'll wait for it to go down in price.

Other than that, I'm banned from getting a bunch of MoS stuff. I have a birthday coming up.

Have a feeling it's because of a lack of access to the film early on, with all the secrecy, could be...
