Web Designer Depot has a good round-up of the most controversial magazine covers that have graced the newstands.

While some controversial covers have worked and sold more magazines, or won awards for the editors who made the decision to go to press with them, others were embarrassments that the publication had to either apologize for, or fire an editor over.

A few memorable ones came to mind when I started reading, and sure enough, they were there.

    I guess they didn't want to show the Hustler 'meat grinder' one.

    I recall buying this National Lampoon issue. We all thought it was SOOO funny! Looking back, it was probably the drugs.

    Those were rhe days when National Lampoon was funny - Kenney, Hendra, O'Rourke. Even the letters section was tear-inducing.
