Do you know ‘what the heck it is’? To play, come up with the right answer, or make up a silly, or inventive answer that we find funny or clever that describes the gizmo shown. We give away up to 18 autographed copies of MAD Magazine. (Up to 6 for the correct answer, up to 12 for cute, silly answers.)

You’ll be playing for the February 2022 issue of MAD, produced by the now, tiny (it’s down to two people!) LA MAD staff. Remember cute or clever wrong answers can win too! Please be sure to put ” WTHII” in the subject line so we can pick it out quickly. There are a lot of Batman satires in that issue. My satire is a take-off on the Batman animated series. In MAD it’s called BATSMAN, The Anemic Series and the fun art is by MAD art director, Sam Viviano.

The judges have very small attention spans, so make sure entries are no more than 25 words, and please make just one guess per entry. You must sign your entry with a nickname, screen name, fake name, or even real name, but sign it! If it’s not signed, it’s not eligible. E-mail your entry to gizwizbiz@gmail.com by midnight (ET) December 31st 2021. By entering you agree this is a game for fun and laughs. Winning answers are published on this website the 1st or 2nd of January 2022, so come back to see if you won. Because like MAD, we’re really low budget here, we can only mail winning copies to United States & some Canada addresses. Please don’t answer on this website; it won’t count. Good Luck! Winners outside the US & Canada can have a 38+ year old Alfred E. Neuman photo autographed to them, scanned and emailed to them. Again, sign your entry with something or it won’t count.
