Like a Phoenix Rising…

Some time ago, we reported rumors that the long-running Mad knock-off, Cracked Magazine, had bitten the dust…and, indeed, they've gone through some changes in proprietorship, were off the stands for a time and endured a lot of hardship, including a reported Anthrax scare in their building.  But as Dan Fiorella — a very funny writer who can occasionally be found in its pages — reminds me, Cracked has returned in all its wacky glory to newsracks.  Issue #358 has just gone to press (including some work by Dick Ayers) and will be out on August 6.  If you can't wait, you can rummage around on the Cracked website.
