Crazy #1, published by Marvel Comics in 1973, reprints stories from the company's 1968 title "Not Brand Echhh! #8." Parodying Marvel's well -known characters such as Spider-Man and Thor, the comic features "Forbush Man" a comical hero with no superpowers. After three issues of reprints, the comic transitioned into a humor magazine in the vein of such satirical periodicals as Mad, Cracked and National Lampoon.
