That would be cool if Mark put something like that together to sell on the forum. I know most of the hardcore Wacky collectors would probably nab a set.  Call it something punny like "Mad MARKet"; "MARKed Down"; or "At the MARKet".

Not Wacky Package related, but here's a November 11, 2015 Off The Mark strip with a cat watching a Game of Thrones spoof that would have been a good Wacky Package title for a Game of Thrones season DVD set:

Thanks for the vote of confidence. I've thought about doing something like this. I'd call it Off the Mark-et. I just wasn't sure there would be enough interest to make it worth it.

Did the Feb. 7, 2016 Sunday comics in your newspaper where you live that carried the Pearls Before Swine Sunday comic strip run by mistake or something like that the Feb. 7, 2016 Mark Parisi Off the Mark strip in its place?

PEARS BEFORE SWINE? Hey, that's a good title for one of the entries of a Wacky Package subset spoofing newspaper comic strips and webcomic strips - mostly for backs of Wacky Packages ANS series stickers (Hoping the next regular one comes out 2016-2017).

My paper always has Pearls Before.  I sometimes wish they'd swap Off the Mark for that, but then I probably wouldn't enjoy the OTM desk calendars so much  :-\

Thats hilarious lol.

Partly because several years ago I had the worst case of that in our county. Once i was cured the county department of disease control called me at work very interested in knowing where i had eaten to contract such a horrid case.

That was 5 days of hell for sure.

On Father's Day (June 19, 2016), Mark Parisi didn't do a Father's Day Off the Mark strip with his family's ideas (and an appearance by Billy of the Family Circus) like in the last couple of years. Even Mark pulled from gocomics.com and some papers recently a June 17, 2016 Off the Mark strip due to the event of an alligator/boy incident at Walt Disney World in Florida.

Well, You will still see occassionally Wacky Package drawings in the Mark Parisi Off the Mark strip, like this recent one from June 25, 2016:
