Strongly recommend it if you're really into 90's Nickelodeon, David Feiss cartoons, or Ed, Edd, n Eddy
I'm crossing fingers the whole series will get a collected edition eventually because I think this series' history is fascinating

The talent they'd usually get the magazine comics were either show staff or people from all over the comics industry,
Industry veterans like Ramona Fradon tackling Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy comics to people within the independent scene like Tony Millionaire, Jacob Chabot, Scott Roberts, etc
The SpongeBob comics in particular were a passion project by Hillenburg by all accounts and it's a travesty there's no effort to get them all scanned
