GUESS WHO’S COMING TO CRITICISE DINNER?
- The pen is mightier than the swordfish! As the new food critic for the Springfield Shopper, Homer's reviews enrage the local chefs, who band together to plot his death. A tantalisingly gristly tale of venomous barbs and tasty lard, wherein Homer discovers which is sweeter: revenge, or a killer eclair?
KING-SIZE HOMER
- Much ado about stuffing! By gleefully gorging himself into obesity, Homer gets his Nuclear Safety Inspection job transferred to his home, endangering his health, his marriage, and the lives of the entire town! EXPLORE alternative fashions for the ample gentleman! EXPERIENCE the lottery that rewards stupidity!! ENJOY neglected food groups!!!
BURNS VERKAUFEN DER KRAFTWERK
- Ich bin ein Springfielder! When Burns sells his Nuclear plant to an efficiency-mad German Consortium, Homer's world is turned topsy-turvy. Can Homer survive in the "Land of Chocolate"? Do Sycophantic German lessons save Smithers' job? Will bee-keeping, boxing, and boccie-ball be enough for Burns? This comic gem holds all the answers.
LISA THE VEGETARIAN
- Pleased to meat you! Lisa becomes a crusading vegetarian, taking on the entire town, including the biggest meateater of them all-Homer Simpson! A mouthwateringly moral epic of ideals betrayed, tempers frayed, and meals waylaid, in which the secret ingredients of a hot dog are, at last, revealed!!
