Roll out the red cape! The SpongeBob Comics Swimtacular celebrates the submarine superheroics of SpongeBob's idols, Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy, in forty-eight all-new pages! First, bear witness to a reunion of Mermaid Man's Golden Age team, the Aquatic Adventurers, in a story we could only call 'Lo, There Shall Be a Catered Event,' featuring funky flashbacks by Jerry Ordway (Superman)! Then, SpongeBob and Patrick's game of superheroes goes from silly to sillier, when they encounter the quiet-loving super-fiend known only as Mendu! Who could this green, big-nosed, tentacled villain possibly be? Next, legendary Silver Age artist Ramona Fradon (Metamorpho) returns to SpongeBob Comics to draw the never-before-seen Mermaid Man classic 'Sidekick Blues,' featuring the sinister Controlling Conch and the rarely sighted Edwardian Age Mermaid Man. All this plus a tour of the Mermalair, Plankton and Gary's brief super-careers, spoofs of classic comic book ads, and a double-page spread depicting every Bikini Bottom superhero and villain!

Forget the kids on this one! I bought this one all for me! From the wonderfully 1960's Marvelesque cover to the use of such talents as Jerry Ordway and Ramona Fradon, this book should have been dedicated to all us old comic readers that have a hard time coming to grips with things like New 52 or Now!. This book is all good! I only hope that the good folks at SpongeBob Comics continue the tradition. I look forward to next years annual. You can tell the sales clerk it's for your kids. But make sure you read this after they go to bed. You'll sleep a little more soundly.
