Ready for Mad Men Season 6?

Well folks, a new season of Mad Men is about to grace our television screens. Are you ready? Perhaps. But is the internet ready? Perhaps not.

This is the promo poster for Season 6, released just the other day:

We think the Onion A.V. club sums up the internet frenzy it caused with the following article:

"It's time to look at the new Mad Men poster and pretend we know what's going to happen."

But before we let ourselves get carried away with wild speculation, take a minute to just check out that poster. Pretty sweet art, right? Get this: the artist who drew it, Brian Sanders, is 75 years old, and he was working right in the thick of the advertising industry in the 1960's. He was even a fan of Mad Men before he was approached to do the art, because it took him "right back" to his early days as an illustrator. The proof?

 "I almost wanted to reach for a cigarette, and I haven’t had one for 30-odd years.”

That's authenticity for you!
