On Tuesday, MAD Magazine’s first issue of 2012 will be officially hitting newsstands. MAD’s official blog, THE IDIOTICAL, has been teasing who’s on the issue’s cover for weeks now. Curious to find out who it is? Then stop reading this and head on over to THE IDIOTICAL to see for yourself! Want more sneak peeks at the issue? Then check out THE HUFFINGTON POST’s reveal of “Banana Republican,” a mock fashion catalog that features Michelle Bachmann, Newt Gingrich, Rick Santorum, Mitt Romney, Rick Perry, Sarah Palin, John Boehner, Ron Paul and Mitch McConnell. And if you’re a fan of The Hunger Games, MTV GEEK has an exclusive first look at MAD’s “Dreadfully Undercooked Hunger Games outtakes.” May Alfred E. Neuman be ever in your favor! Speaking from the magazine’s international headquarters in New York City, MAD editor John Ficarra said, “There’s no question that MAD #514 is our most recent issue. And since the SPORTS ILLUSTRATED swimsuit issue will probably be sold out by the time you get to the newsstand, why go home empty handed? You might as well pick up a copy of MAD.”
