MAD Magazine Contributors
Nick Meglin
Contributions in Order of Appearance
This list is woefully under-representative of Nick Meglin’s contributions to the magazine.
As bare-bones as this list is, it represents what those of us outside of MAD’s inside world are capable of knowing
with scraps of facts gleaned from known sources over the years (including Nick, himself).
It can never be comprehensive.
In fact, none of the lists having to do with any members of the editorial staff can ever be complete.
If it isn’t already obvious, I’m always willing to make their lists more complete
if they ever come around to the idea that this site is worthy of detailing their work as staff members.
