Frantic Magazine is a comic book series published by Marvel UK from 1979 to 1980. Part of Dez Skinn's revamp of the company, the title was a thinly disguised copy of Mad Magazine. It contained the first published work of Alan Davis, as well as early scripts by Alan Moore.

Individual issues contained a collection of parodies of popular culture - movies, TV series and printed adverts. These were mostly self-contained items that appeared in a single issue, though an ongoing strip featured the adventures of Howard The Duck. Many of these features were reprints from the magazine's US counterpart, Crazy Magazine.[1] Thus, the humour often relied on American slang, phrasing and cultural references - not well known to comics readers in the UK in that era - as well as more than passing familiarity with characters from Marvel Comics.

The magazine's mascot and cover character was an import from Crazy – a sinister clown called Obnoxio The Clown.[1]
