Review

Pilkey's third epic Captain Underpants adventure published in 1999 has now been re- issued in shiny full color graphics. George and Harold's comic stories, the switch of the cafeteria ladies with aliens, the infamous flip-o-rama and all the necessary potty humor are left untouched and rejuvenated in this colorful edition. The incredibly naughty cafeteria ladies look better than ever in bright green skin and accessorized hair wigs. Pilkey provides an added bonus epic novella by George and Harold in the back about "Dog Man and the Wrath of Petey". A new fan base will be inspired to try their hand at creating comics with this re-issue.

Overall Book Score: good
