[.ca] Bart Simpson's Treehouse of Horror Heebie-Jeebie Hullabaloo (ISBN 0060987626)



From Amazon.com:
Bart Simpson and the rest of the gang from Springfield star in this hilarious collection of Halloween-themed tales. There are parodies of The Blob (Sideshow Bob turns soft), The Exorcist (Lisa's possessed by Madonna), Invasion of the Body Snatchers (Homer discovers pod people), Cat People (Bart purrs in the moonlight), and Little Shop of Horrors (Mmmm... donuts!). And that's not the half of it! In between these feature comics stories are funny, frightful bits like fake ads featuring the aliens Kang and Kodos, "A Kid's Guide to Monster-Proofing Your Room," "Captain McCallister's Ghost Stories of the Briny Deep," and four Mad Libs-inspired variations of "The Curse of the Thing." Comics fans take note: contributing writers to this collection include stars Mike Allred, Peter Bagge, Paul Dini, Evan Dorkin, Bill Morrison, James Robinson, and Jeff Smith. --Jim Pascoe


Funny!:
HEEBIE-JEEBIE HULLABALOO is top-of-the-line Simpsons! The presentation is high-quality with an embossed cover and bright, clear graphics inside. You won't be disappointed!


Simpson's Comic Book:
This comic book was pretty good with another humerous approach to to the Simpsons comic saga. Stories include 1. Sideshow Blob-Sideshow Bob is turned into a giant phlem. 2. The Exorsister-Lisa possessed by the spirit of Madonna. 3. The Immigration of the Body Snatchers-Pod people take over and Homer tries to convince them they are here and not crazy. 4. Call me Homer-Famly history of Homer eating blubber in the tale of Ishmael. 5. Bart People-Bart turns into a cat. 6. Little Shop of Homers-Killer Homer plant. Pretty good book overall.


Mmmm... Donuts:
I think this book was really funny. I really liked Homer Simpson's Halloween Carols. He is my favorite cartoon character. I guess the funniest part is, when the Simpsons were watching Kent Brockman talking about a plant that eats donuts, and Homer said "Mmmm... Donuts." That was pretty funny. Another funny scene was when everyone in Springfield found out this was just a comic book, and they didn't really exist. Homer said "If I don't exist, can I still eat donuts?" That one cracked me up. I guess, now, you can see why I like Homer Simpson so much.


Bart Simpson's Treehouse of Horror : Heebie-Jeebie Hullabloo:
This book was as told it would come and was brand new. There was not one little mark on it. I would order from this user again.


A must have for any Simpsons fan:
For those of you who are fans of the hit television show "The Simpsons", you are probably well acquainted with the legendary "Treehouse of Horror" episodes that have become a Halloween tradition. These episodes have proven to be such a seasonal favorite that Groening and the gang have decided to dish out even more tales of terror in "Bart Simpson's Treehouse of Horror: Heebie-Jeebie Hullabaloo". Hullabaloo is a collection of comics and sketches that cleverly capture the humor and style of the Simpsons Halloween specials. Much like the television version, the main stories in Hullabaloo are parodies of famous horror films. The first story in the book is a parody of the classic horror film "The Blob". In the sketch, Simpsons character Sideshow Bob takes an experimental treatment that transforms him into "Sideshow Blob". Seizing the opportunity to take revenge on his nemesis Bart, Sideshow Blob squeezes out of prison and wreaks havoc on Springfield. After Springfield is saved from "Sideshow Blob", they barely have time to recover before Lisa becomes possessed by the evil spirit of Madonna in "The Exorsister", a combo-parody of the infamous "Exorcist" and the even more infamous Madonna. The book continues with additional parodies of films such as "Little Shop of Horrors", "The Invasion of the Body Snatchers", and "Cat People". In between the main features of the book are a plethora of comics, guides, and stories hosted by and featuring an assortment of Springfield characters. One of these guides features everyone's favorite slack-jawed yokel, Cletus Del Roy. Cletus presents to us "A Yokels Guide to Halloween" which teaches us how to celebrate Halloween like "Edgar Allan" Poe white trash. Another extra features Bart's "Guide to Low-Budget Costumes" which shows you how to cheaply transform yourself into horrid monsters such as "Vaselino, The Thing That Wouldn't Dry". You'll also find the story of "Elijah Dunn and the One-Armed Nun", Evil Dr. Burn's "Goodtime Servant Factory", "Springfield in Hell", and much, much more. Hullabaloo is colorful, fun, entertaining, and just in time for Halloween. The comical cast breathes sarcasm and humor into favorite horror classics. If you are a fan of the Simpsons and Halloween, then this book will not disappoint you.
