(No music, unfortunately.) They even include the Mountain Dew ads featuring Spy VS Spy! Al Jaffee has always been a great satirist. His "Hawk and Dove" comics were always well constructed, his various inventions were sometimes prescient (MAD ESP), and his snappy answers always enjoyable. The best tribute was when the Onion reported that a MAD correspondent had been killed in Iraq, a victim of the the terroist group "Al Jaffi"! The Absolutely Mad DVD-ROM is highly recommended.
