"Start off with a little ring-a-ding-ding from the new "King of Cool" Professor Frink, some harmless daydreaming from Bart's pal Milhouse, some bedtime nursery rhyming with Maggie Simpson, and a bit of back-in-the-day reminiscing from Mr. Burns. Even a tyke-sized Homer tries his hand at some magical wishing, and Ralph Wiggum does a little role modeling. Then, Sideshow Bob goes slumming to exact his revenge, Bart sets about reinvigorating his favorite superhero comic magazine, and Homer thinks he's seeing double when he discovers another brother from yet another mother" -- page 4 of cover.
