1-3Captain Underpants series.
Color by Jose Garibaldi. Here's the second book in the wildly popular series that's "now in full color." George and Harold, in detention after crashing the "Invention Convention," create a new comic that comes alive (complete with talking toilets). The hues selected for this colorized version are admirably restrained (though hardly an inch of blank space remains). Fun facts are appended.
