Fear-fans will probably want to pick up the latest “Bart Simpson’s Treehouse of Terror” from Bongo Comics. The parodies in this issue have A-list talent. Len Wein and Bernie Wrightson did a story called “Squish Thing.” Homer gets transformed into a muck monster through his greatest weakness: beer.
The story by Marv Wolfman and Gene Colan is an homage to their great Tomb of Dracula series. You will see how Bart’s family fills out the roles of the vampire slayers. Homer is Quincy Harker and Lisa is Rachel Van Helsing. Colan’s art makes Bart look almost three dimensional in some scenes.
John Severin does some quality work on another tale. I love Severin. I wish Mark Millar would write the granddaddy of all westerns for Severin to illustrate. Nuff said.
