The really funny part: Due to web width reductions rampant in the industry, you really can’t make a wearable hat out of a newspaper page any more. At least not one from an American newspaper.

Today’s was presumably the last in this story arc. Find the first here.

Now that the Poynter ‘tablet conference’ is over, here’s the REAL scoop

Wednesday, June 16th, 2010

Now that the Poynter ‘tablet conference’ is over, here’s the real scoop on the Apple iPad from a source you can trust: Mad magazine.

The cover to the new issue:

Untitled

Ouch! But funny.

The story on the inside is by John Caldwell, whose work used to impress me back in the 1980s, when he cartooned for National Lampoon. Click for a larger view:

That’s the only page Mad previewed for us on its web site. My pal Darren Sanefski says his copy just arrived in the mail, so look for it soon at your nearest newstand or trash heap.

In other news, Darren Sanefski subscribes to Mad magazine. Rumor has it that he looks forward to the annual swimsuit edition in February.
