Mad Magazine stops new publication

After nearly 70 years of circulation, Mad Magazine will be ceasing publication of original content and may shut down entirely.

Longtime contributor to the magazine David DeGrand confirmed rumours of a shut-down on his Twitter.

The magazine will recycle old articles until their subscriptions are fulfilled and then may potentially shut down altogether.

The magazine is owned by DC Comics, who reportedly told freelancers that issue 10 will be the last with new content.
