Of all the comics to come out during this time of year, this is usually my most anticipated and this issue didn’t disappoint. RIGHT off the bat we get a Die-Hard parody with Homer trying to escape Ned’s charitable activities and it was hilarious. The producers hit a lot of good points from the film that made Bruce Willis famous including going through the motions without any shoes, and yes the ‘Now I know what a TV dinner feels like” scene.

This issue we also got the long-awaited return of Mr. Plow whom teams up with Wiggum to solve a bunch of crimes around town during a heavy snow storm. Apu, the retirement home, and a bunch of other cases come up, and these two usually end up eating SOMETHING in every one of them.

I wasn’t crazy about the camping bit, but I loved the Sideshow Bob cameo as I felt that was like a nice stocking stuffer. Great issue, and definitely worth the pick up.

SCORE
9/10
