In "Mow Money," Bart Simpson trades homework for grass, launching a lawnmowing empire with Milhouse as his first hire. As his business grows, Bart makes a tough call—firing Milhouse—before setting his sights on becoming the ultimate mower by entering Duff's big lawnmower contest. Written by Chuck Dixon and illustrated by John Costanza, with inks by Phyllis Novin, colors by Art Villanueva, and letters by Karen Bates, this 2009 Titan Comics issue captures the chaos and humor of Springfield’s most mischievous teen taking on the mowing world. The cover, by Jason Ho and Mike Rote, perfectly captures Bart’s manic ambition.
