The Lowdown: Think the adventures of Dante and Randall, New Jersey’s most sardonic counter jockeys, ended when the credits rolled? Think again. Clerks mastermind Kevin Smith had more tales to tell, and since film’s so damn expensive nowadays, these unofficial sequel stories were done funnybook style.

Why Buy It: You couldn’t live without the special edition of the Clerks animated series DVD, could ya? Then why are you trying to front on this? Smith hilariously lampoons both feel-good Christmas TV specials and toy collecting in the book’s first story, and reveals exactly what happened when Dante and Randall visited that funeral in “Clerks: The Lost Scene.” A must for those who like their Keystone Kapers slapstick mixed in with dick jokes.
