  Comics Bulletin - Ray Tate

  Dec 19, 2009

  Needless to say this book would look pretty dull in black and white. Bart's armor is a compliment of blue, gray and gold. Ralph's off-putting leathers characterize his slightly awry thinking. The disturbing elf maid with a fuchsia, purple and pink outfit would almost be beautiful if not for the subject. Jabba combines several greens into an eye-catching complex. The familiar pink walls of the Simpsons residence contrast the deadliness of the nuclear death. Paler shades sparked with bright hues define the virtual world. Quite frankly, I think Art Villanueva can retire after this story. This issue of Simpsons Comics is simply stupendous, and I doubt he'll top it. Read Full Review
