Spoilers Below

Frink Sinatra

Frink is on a hot date and his mojo concoction gets thrown in the drinking water! This causes everyone in town to act cool as the Billy Dee Williams side of the pillow and as such the nerds have to give watch so as they don’t get turned. Thankfully, the group get to the antidote and are able to administer it to the entire town, but for some reason Frink decides to ditch his lady!

Hook, Line, and Frinker

Remember the three-headed fish we always see on the side of the Springfield Nuclear Power Plant? Well, Frink takes one, and transforms it into a three legged walking fish that multiply like crazy and run amok across town destroying everything in its path. Thankfully, Frink has a net made of adamantium….that’s right kids, the SHIT THAT WOLVERINE HAS! Frink captures all of the fish and sells them to a more then willing buyer of whom runs a restaurant that is in need of a good fish sandwich!

Synchronicity for Two

Frink’s doing a show and tell in Bart’s class when all of the sudden his laser goes off sending him and Bart into a multiverse that features comic book sensation Mystical Plasmo The Mystic in its ranks! Everyone is here in a 3D adventure with Plasmo and Starla doing battle with Sand Snake and his two-headed hydra! Thankfully, everyone gets out OK

The one off issues for Bongo Comics are setting standards imo when it comes to providing value, entertainment, and overall good product as compared to their Marvel and DC peers. I mean, NO ONE does shit like this anymore like putting out an issue with 3D glasses that you then use to read a story. Honestly, I think its just leading the pack, and every quarter I wonder what these guys are going to do next and every quarter I am surprised. 2013 is now the year of the Frink, until someone comes along and says otherwise.  That story alone is worth the price of this issue, the rest of the issue is just funny toppings to finish off what is a pretty superb issue.

(9.5 out of 10)
