Painfull
The first half of the book is a parody called Bartzan. It basically casts Bart as Tarzan. It is written at such a level I can not even think of the child that could possibly be interested in it. Not too mention it commits the crime of being entirely humorless.
A very painfull thing to read. It wasn't until the book returns to Springfield that any kind of humor returned to the book. Even that was not exactly sufficient to hold a story. I guess what is good on the television is not always good on the printed page. Even my daughters, who usually like the Simpsons comic, did not like this issue.
