SpongeBob and Patrick are lost in the Kelp Forest, and it's up to Mr. Krabs and Squidward to find them! But what wild fate has befallen Bikini Bottom's best buddies? Find out in "SpongeMonkey!" In "Friend Fair," Patrick and SpongeBob enter a contest to test just how much (or little) each knows about the other. Plus a lobster fact page by Maris Wicks (Bravest Warriors), "SpongeFunnies" by James Kochalka (American Elf), and a stunning pinup by pulp-master Gary Gianni (featuring a certain JungleBob Loincloth!). All this and a painted back cover by Becky Dreistadt (Adventure Time).

When a crimewave plagues the shopkeepers of Springfield, three men vow to stop ne’er-do-wells in their good-for-nothing tracks. Three mere mortals will stare villainy in the eye and dare it to blink. Three vigilantes, who comprise…the Merchants of Vengeance. Be there as an alliance is formed, a bond is forged, and (as usually happens to such bonds and aforementioned alliances) a confidence is betrayed! Then, witness the cream-filled fury of Pieman (actually Homer Simpson) when an evil doppelganger seeks to tarnish his indignant and indulgent identity. And Bart and Lisa prove that a little imagination is a dangerous thing when they go on a sensational rampage through the streets of Springfield.
