Spy vs. Spy is a wordless comic strip published in Mad magazine. It features two agents involved in stereotypical and comical espionage activities. One is dressed in white and the other in black, but they are otherwise identical and are particularly known for their long and beak-like heads and their white pupils and black sclera. The duo are always at war with each other, using a variety of booby traps to inflict harm on the other. The spies usually alternate between victory and defeat with each new strip. A parody of the political ideologies of the Cold War, the strip was created by Cuban expatriate cartoonist Antonio Prohías, and debuted in Mad #60, dated January 1961. Spy vs. Spy has been written and drawn by Peter Kuper since 1997. Following budget cuts and Mad switching to a reprint format, the strip briefly ended in 2021 following issue #18 of the magazine. It returned for issue #28, the 70th anniversary issue, and then returned permanently with issue #40 in 2024.
