Nick Meglin was on the editorial staff of MAD Magazine for almost half a century. His progress can be observed by studying the magazine's masthead, which moved him from "Ideas" to "War Correspondent" (during an army stint) to "Editorial Associate" to "Associate Editor" to "Editor," a position which he held for 20 years. He is currently listed as a Contributing Editor. MAD is an American humor magazine founded by publisher William Gaines and editor Harvey Kurtzman in 1952. ...
Editors Ficarra and NickMeglin decided that the legendary humor magazine should abandon its longstanding fl-and-white tradition and as a result, beginning this past February, Mad has been printed in living color.
The ever-youthful Meglin and Ficarra have been at Mad for 69 years — between them, that is. "I was older when I started than I am now," says Meglin, who actually joined Mad 45 years ago, when he was 19.
When Ficarra and Meglin heard that Puffy Combs wanted to change his name to P Diddy, for example, they wrote a piece about it that was posted the next day.
