Throw in an alien abduction, a cosmic trip to an alternate reality, a contentious bar war, a ghostly superhero pairing, and a rescue mission beneath the nuclear power plant, and you have the most colossal compendium yet. And make that dream of a personal home theater a reality with your own scale model of Springfield's classic movie house, the Aztec Theater"--Page 4 of cover.
