(W/A) john legate

In volume 1, little Timmy Davidson introduces his new alien friend to the 4th grade class at P.S. 246 on Show-and-Tell day. As Ludloo tries to demonstrate his ability to travel interstellar distances in the wink of an eye, a mis-calibration in the SMC brings the entire elementary school to a distant planet where strange things are afoot. It's up to Timmy and Ludloo to save the day. If they happen to build a new Food Court at the Mall and help create weapons of mass destruction along the way...so be it.

In volume 2, Ludloo decides it might be best to try a new line of work. He always wanted to be a Special Ops Janitor, and when the opportunity to clean up the Argiope Corporation's orbital space station comes along he jumps at the chance. Of course, they are trying out the prototype Singularity Vacuum packs (the latest thing in quantum cleaning technology) on a provisional basis. What could possibly go wrong?

BART SIMPSON'S PAL MILHOUSE #1

(W) Pat McGreal, Gail Simone  (A) Bob Smith, Carol Lay

Bart Simpson's pal Milhouse takes center stage in the next of our series of Simpsons Comics One-Shots. Take a look at the world of Springfield through the eyes of Bart's bespectacled best friend, second banana, and juvenile delinquent wannabe, and the fantastical things you see through his thick lenses might surprise you.

At first glance, you might be asking yourself, "why is Casey recommending a Simpsons Comic?" But when you consider that it includes a story by Gail Simone, with art by Carol Lay, you'll agree that it's time to give some love to the Bongo boys and girls. (Of course, it could also mean Casey is on vacation, and someone else is picking his recommendation this week) Check it out, I know you won't be dissapointed. RECOMMENDED BY CASEY!
