[Jester, King's Favorite Fool · Rating 5 out of 5]

This is the third and last book in the SpongeBob Comics. This one focuses on spooky themes. Some of the stories are: The Flying Dutchman attends boating school, SpongeBob's pumpkin comes to life as a terrifying gourd, a bubble duplicate of SpongeBob and Patrick starts living their lives for them, and more.

This is my least favorite in the series. It somewhat felt like the bad seasons of SpongeBob. Still, I'm a SpongeBob fan, so I'll be picking up my own copy regardless.

Personal Rating: ⭐3/5

Lo cogí de casualidad por la curiosidad en la biblioteca y me gustó mucho.
Es como ver los capítulos de Bob Esponja pero obviamente a base de viñetas, con muchos de sus chistes y chascarrillos clásicos.

Pero además tiene extras, como algunas historietas cortas con dibujos hechos por otros artistas que le da otro toque más curioso y especial.

It’s Spongebob honestly I really enjoyed this, there are some interesting and very creative stories in here and they’re pretty funny too, spongebob just never gets old, even if it’s a book I can still imagine the characters talking like it’s an episode from show haha.

I've been reading these comics with my eight-year-old son. He's a huge fan of SpongeBob. These are funny and spooky tales from Bikini Bottom.

Patrick makes a pumpkin pie, the Flying Dutchman joins Spongebob in boating school, and many other short tales.

Lo recomiendo al 💯 porque es un libro/comic muy chulo que tiene diferentes historias de terror con Bob esponja y sus amigos.

[Puffettacle · Rating 5 out of 5]

L’atmosfera cambia completamente, ma senza perdere il divertimento che contraddistingue la serie. Qui troviamo racconti dal sapore più misterioso e “spettrale”, perfetti per il periodo di Halloween, ma sempre raccontati con la comicità che contraddistingue SpongeBob. Mi sono piaciute molto anche le diverse interpretazioni grafiche degli artisti coinvolti, che rendono ogni storia unica e originale. Ancora una volta ho avuto la sensazione di guardare nuovi episodi del cartone, solo attraverso le vignette.

Silly, but fun to read.
