...After all, this isn't just our last shot at the Potterverse, this is Rowling's, too, her last opportunity to hammer on additions - that extra wing, that upstairs bathroom - and fill in a few blank areas on the map. We get a breakneck tour of the bowels of Gringotts and the interior of Malfoy Manor. (Her portrait of the Malfoys, the evil family who nevertheless love each other with a strange, sinister tenderness, is one of the unexpected pleasures of the late Potter books.)

All fuels have been depleted in this cartoon-ageddon, and the only source of energy left is feces. To stockpile this precious element, citizens are obliged to defecate in public chambers and rewarded for their pains with Juicy Bars - poopsicles, if you will. The Diaper Gang, Smurf-like gangstas addicted to Juicy Bars, do the bidding of their Vaderesque overlord, the Diaper King, and have suicidal...
