Editor's Note
Created by former marine biologist Stephen Hillenburg, Nickelodeon's hugely popular cartoon series SPONGEBOB SQUAREPANTS chronicles the wacky adventures of an overly enthusiastic sea sponge and his oceanic pals in the underwater town of Bikini Bottom. Living in a pineapple home with his meowing, catlike pet snail, Gary, the fry-cook sponge (inimitably voiced by Tom Kenny) happily flips Krabby Patties at a fast food restaurant owned by the moneygrubbing Mr. Krabs--that is, when he's not engaging in nautical nonsense with his dimwitted starfish friend, Patrick; annoying his tentacled and perennially grouchy neighbor and coworker, Squidward, or visiting the displaced Texan squirrel, Sandy Cheeks, or fending off the megalomaniac plans of the evil protozoan, Plankton. Employing a vibrantly colorful animation style that bears the distinct influence of REN & STIMPY, SPONGEBOB SQUAREPANTS has become a veritable pop-culture phenomenon that appeals to children and adults alike with its wholesome, yet slyly subversive, brand of goofy humor (as well as an impossibly catchy theme song). This collection continues the adventures of the absorbent, yellow, and porous one with the second half of the series' fifth season.
