Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaWhen Jeff Albertson (Comic Book Guy) spills his drink on Radioactive Man #1000, he explains that it repels soda onto lesser comics. The "lesser comics" that the soda bounces onto are Bongo Comics, the publisher of Simpsons comics.
- GoofsJeff Albertson (Comic Book Guy) asks if there is a word in Klingon for "loneliness." He then pulls a book out of his pocket and makes a noise that sounds vaguely Klingon. However, Marc Okrand's official Klingon dictionary does not list a word for "loneliness." Despite the most recent revision being in 1992, no updated dictionary has been released since.
- Quotes
[Bart and Milhouse are watching a secret tape of police informants]
Ned Flanders: I really hate to be a snitch.
Chief Wiggum: Don't worry, your yellow-bellied ratting will be held in the strictest confidence.
Ned Flanders: Well, in that case, my neighbor Homer released a radioactive ape into my house. It's, uh, taken over the top floor.
Bart: It wasn't dad's fault. The ape tricked him.

Featured review
The Comic Book Guy takes centre stage
The Comic Book Guy falls ill, leaving Bart and Millhouse to fill in for him in this better than average episode.
By this stage in the shows run the writers obviously were looking to branch out and give the many supporting characters the opportunity to shine, and become more developed.
That is well achieved here, but it does leave you wanting a bit more from Marge/Lisa etc as well.
