The Simpsons One Step Beyond Forever: A Complete Guide to Our Favorite Family...Continued Yet Again (Simpsons Comic Compilations) Review
I love the Simpsons and these books are a "must have" for any serious fan. Plot summaries, gags, quotes, movie references, song lyrics, and "the stuff you may have missed" are all great. As I am rewatching the seasons on DVD, I love to pull out these books and refer along.
However, I am a little irritated at how much I feel Groening and company to be "milking" these books and the consumer for $$$$. The first book contained 8 seasons and was great. Now lately, all three of the subsequent books only cover two seasons? This latest book was released in 2005 at the beginning of the 17th season. Surely they could have made more of an effort to make the book more current and include the 15th and 16th seasons as well.
I'm a little annoyed that it cost me to buy the first book in this series that covered EIGHT seasons, and yet I've had to spend on three books which have only covered SIX.

best simpsons book ever! - Sports Purist - Stone Mountain, GA USA
I'v read all of the simpsons books in this series and this one was by far the best.
Great for hard core Simpsons fans - Sara White - Salt Lake City, UT USA
This is a great episode index for hard core Simpsons fans. It works out best with the DVD set, as you can read about the episode and watch for things that Matt Groening picks out as his favorite jokes/parody. It is handy for younger fans who do not know the jokes as sometimes they pre-date our generation. It tells the history of both minor and major characters, and also has the chalk board and couch gag for every show.
