Try figuring out what this scan is… a samll series of oops…. from MAD magazine…

The shadow knows – Who Knows What Evil Lurks in the Heart of Men?



Who Knows What Evil Lurks in the Heart of Men?

Mad comics and I should thank two fellas who inducted me to the addictive piece of humor.

One Mad feature, by Sergio Aragones: The Shadow Knows”, a simple cartoon of all sorts of common folks from daily situations. It showed the shadows projected (literally) behind them. Shadows spoke the real intentions and true emotions from what we see beyond the real thing. Funny isn’t..

Often I see scenes in my daily life, and I quickly relate with the “shadows Knows”.

For instance my favorite “shadow knows” shows a man by the sidewalk meeting a known young mom with a small kid cuddled in her arms . Real picture, as we see, shows the man pat the young lad in the Mothers arm, but the Shadow on the wall reflect another tale. He is more curious with the cute mom and less interested with the young toddler, a greater truth in many cases we see around in our lives… : )
