...Lampoon has at least as many laughs as 5 issues of the New York Times, though it's not as good for starting fires), or that every bit of subtlety inevitably leaves a trail of squashed jokes behind it (as the more-tasteless-than-ever Audio Lab ad on the back cover graphically shows, there are times when an appeal to animal emotions gets nauseating).

The cartoon Beatles--their voices strangely unrecognizable--are, by virtue of being drawn by the artist who drew the backgrounds, homogenized into the whole, unable to impose their familiarly irreverent personalities or make believable the ad-libbed observations the writers have given them to mouth...
