GQ's cover (left) references Vanity Fair's Oscars issue
GQ has poked fun at its print rival Vanity Fair with its latest cover.
GQ's "comedy issue" features Saturday Night Live's Kate McKinnon, comedian Sarah Silverman and actress Issa Rae with their arms and legs misplaced in an apparent Photoshop disaster.
It's a clear reference to Vanity Fair's Oscars cover earlier this year, where Reese Witherspoon appeared to have been given an extra leg.

"We deeply regret that the results violated GQ's rigorous standards of editorial excellence and the laws of nature."
