WHEN THE MUPPETS TAKE OVER AMERICA

THE MUPPET SHOW
1976-1981 SYNDICATED


Considering how much the Muppets became part of American culture, it's strange there was never a proper parody of them. They were, however, referenced in other parodies and many articles. Here are only a few. This was the cover of Crazy #57, December 1979. Crazy was published by Marvel, so it only made sense they would feature the Hulk on their cover.

The M*A*S*H parody isn't much different from the Veterenarians' Hospital bits they did on the show.
Cover to the German edition of MAD.
And the German edition of Cracked.
From Cracked #187, July 1982, art by John Severin.
