SIMPSONS SUMMER SHINDIG (2009)

"(W/A) Matt Groening The summer just got more fun with the return of The Simpsons Summer Shindig. This double-sized issue of summer-lovin' stories finds Homer, Moe, and Barney inventing a wildly popular beer donut; Santa's Little Helper and Snowball II on an incredible journey; Bart in a summer school showdown with Kearney, and much more!"

"Simpsons summer fun is just around the corner with the annual Simpsons Summer Shindig. First up, Homer is determined to prove his love to Marge by getting a tattoo. Then, newscaster Kent Brockman sets out to restore his journalistic reputation by putting his investigative reporter skills to the test. And they say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, but Radioactive Man has his hands full when he is besieged by a wave of do-good imitators. And speaking of heroes, Homer, Barney, and Duffman spring into action to save Duff Industries and the secret behind their new special brew."

"It's a summer bonanza of sizzling hot Simpsons stories! First, Bart and Milhouse battle it out to see who will become the Springfield Isotopes' new batboy. Next, Mr. Burns commandeers the Springfield public beach in the middle of a heatwave and stands betweenthe citizens of Springfield and the surf. And when the Simpson family takes a summer vacation on the Silver Flash express train, they don't seem to be going anywhere in a flash and they are expressly miserable. Last but not least, when Bart and Milhouse are lost, Homer seeks the help of the only rule of law in the backwoods of Springfield, Judge Dredd-neck! (Okay, it's Cletus.)"

"Get your hot little hands on the newest summer sampling of the Simpsons! Due to the city's budget cuts, Homer and the Simpsons clan are recruited as the lifeguards at the municipal pool. And be there as Bart Simpson's greatest secret is revealed as Bartman is unmasked in front of all of Springfield! Then Marge asks Homer to do some home improvement! And join McBain as he takes on his archenemy - 'MENDOZA!'"

"The Simpsons Summer Shindig gets a super-duper, super dose of superb Simpsons superhero stories this summer! Don't miss out on all-new collection derring-do that will have you doubled over with laughter!"
