DeathBob NotePants

Death Note is a wonderful supernatural suspense manga. It's the best Japanese comic I've seen in a while. I was originally turned onto it by good ole Boing Boing who were turned onto it by my dealer, The Secret Headquarters. In the book, a young boy comes into possession of a magical notebook, and writing any name in the book causes that person to die. The book (and the world of the story) are governed by an increasingly complex and strict system of rules. A taut, driven cat and mouse game emerges from this simple premise. It's a hugely popular book which has been adapted into 2 feature films.

Hence the inevitable SpongeBob/Death Note combination below:
