This is a collection of the Bart Simpson comics put into one graphic novel. It's nothing really that original but I still like reading them for when I need something not so serious. This one was consumed in one sitting..But you know...This is one of the problems I have with these collections...I don't really have a great deal to say about them after reading them.

Not a whole lot to say about this one that I haven't said in a Simpsons Graphic Novel review before. The art always looks just like the show, so it's always great. The stories vary, but if you're a fan of the Simpsons you'll probably be entertained by all of it at least a little bit.

One of the few Simpsons books that actually made me laugh.
