Cool! I knew what it was as soon as I read the title. :)

Still a good one.

When I got half way through, I had a figure on the right side that looked like a whirling dervish.

Man, that was Tough! I had a figure of a guy holding something, but the long beak of the Spy was just destroying my attempts to make sense of it. Good puzzle.

Nice!

Ditto #1.

I had very little of the puzzle solved before I knew what I was solving for. Very nicely done and brings back some fun memmories.

I ove this one. Fun image, and challenging to solve.

Love it. :)

ive actually been waiting for a spy v spy puzzle to come across my desk. did take some guessing though...

I love coming across old Jan puzzles. I never knew him but he's a bit of a personal hero for creating this site. I always enjoy his puzzles too.

I hadn't seen this puzzle before, but I loved MAD Magazine when I was a kid, so this was a fun find indeed!

All the above said it right. What a fun puzzle to solve, and what a cool picture!!

I would only take issue with #10. It did not take any guessing. But perhaps the puzzle was changed in the interim, and guessing *was* involved in 2011??

Anyway, a fun puzzle to solve and it was great to see a blast from the past appear in the end.

Love MAD magazine...and Spy VS Spy was one of my favorites.

Jan, even as founder, was one of the best puzzle makers on the site.
