Free Comic Book Day Review - Bongo Comics
Next up is Bongo Comics Free-For-All, another original FCBD offering, from the people who make Simpsons and Futuramma comics.
It's good to be able to laugh at yourself, isn't it? I mean, I shouldn't be offended that Bongo uses FCBD as an opportunity to make fun of comic book collectors, should I? The first story in the Free-For-All does just that. The rest of the book parodies various comic book cliches like evil dopplegangers and origin stories. I've seen it all before. I saw it all decades ago in a MAD magazine parody called Plastic Sam. At least it was a little funnier than Archie, but not much.
