Does anyone know of a list that compiles what issues of Mad and Cracked Magazines that there are parodies of the 007 movies in?

Far from a definitive list Indy, but a few I can remember or have:

MAD
One with Connery where they do a musical to Bond films. It came out in the '60s and was reprinted in a compilation issue.
They did Moonraker as Moneyraker.
FYEO became For Her Thighs Only
A Rambo parody had a panel of Moore hanging off a helicopter.

CRACKED
A TSWLM parody. I always thought it was funny because one of the guys in the tanker turns to another and asks about Moore/Bond "How does he stay so neat?"
A compilation magazine from 1989 had rejected gadgets or something like that. I think it also had Dalton/Bond on the cover.

Another humor magazine from the early-mid '70s called Crazy, put out by Marvel, did a nice parody of LALD called Live and Let Spy.

I think you forget to mention the "James Bond Villian's Pet Peeves" in MAD magazine as well, Turn. It's hilarious!

Yes, nice link freemo :)

"The Simpsons" Bond related humor was always a favorite of mine! :)

I have an old "Cracked" issue with a thing about Bond's favourite gadgets. It was pretty funny, I guess. They did have really really lame things like a video game that comes to life in villian's TV screens and vodka martini candies, but they had funny things like a teddy bear that pees acid, an armoured skate board with rockets, machine guns and things like that (funny [censored]), and a Sean Connery rubber mask for ladies who don't care for the latest 007. Out of five stars, i'd give it a 2.5.

Do any of you know if they continued doing the comics of the films after For Your Eyes Only? I can imagine some great stuff for the NSNA & OP rivalry.

For anyone who is interested, I was able to find a few issue numbers of some 007 related Bond Mad Magaines....

165 - 8 James Bond Movies
199 - The Spy Who Loved Me
213 - Moonraker
229 - For Your Eyes Only
