Simpsons Comics #155
This month, the Simpsons comic universe experiences the first crossover to span all three Simpson titles since "When Bongos Collide!" Something big is in store for Radioactive Man, and as we all know, where Radioactive Man goes, comic parodies follow! Since this is a brand-new issue, I've adhered to the 4-page limit for recent comics.

The issue also features potshots at other problems with comics today, including recycled plots and countless tie-in issues. Just picking one scene to post was tough.

(And incidentally, if anyone with great scan-fu can tell me how to not get those way-too-visible color-dots when I scan, that would be most helpful.)

	Moiré pattern - it's an interference pattern. :) As in, "When two patterns entwine in a way serpentine, that's a moiré!" A higher DPI setting should do the trick. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	There's a setting in your scanning software called "Descreen". It'll take care of some of the dot patterns. :) Also, loooooooooooved this scene, haha. (Reply to this)

	I remember "When Bongos Collide!" Good times. Say, if Krullers are infiltrating the Bongoverse, can the Kruller ~~Beatles~~ B-Sharps be far behind? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	There could be a Kruller John Lennon, after all George Harrison already showed up in the series. (Reply to this) (Parent)
