March 13th saw the release of a new MAD special called MAD About Superheroes, featuring a painted cover by Alex Ross! It retails for $9.95, and proves to be a nice companion for anyone collecting the recent line of DC Direct action figures,The Just-Us League, which spoofs various JLA members by putting MAD's mascot Alfred E. Neuman in thier trademark (but slightly altered) outfits. Check out www.dccomics.com 's official DC Direct page for more on those figures. Here's DC's description of the magazine:
