hmm, comeback? Funny, didn't know he ever left....
I think somebody once said that every album is a "comeback" album because the gaps between albums is so long.
So Mandatory Fun is Al's first album to be #1 on the charts. Does that mean this is his highest-selling album? Has it gone gold or platinum (or higher) yet?

Straight Outta Lynwood is Al's top seller so far. Mandatory Fun sold 100,000 copies in the first week. weirdal.com has the list of which of Al's albums have gone gold and platinum.

So Al was thinking about a "Let It Go" parody, called "Make It So". I bet that would've been hilarious, although Mandatory Fun is amazing as it is.

I think a Grammy is a pretty safe bet. Really really hopeful for a Rock Hall induction, but not holding my breath. I assume the Walk of Fame thing is inevitable, though much lower on my priority list.

I am really hoping for a Grammy win. He deserved to win for Internet Leaks, but he deserves to win EVEN MORE for Mandatory Fun!

Honestly, if he doesn't get the star next time, that's just downright stupid. What the hell else does he even have to do at this point?
I don't think Al has major Grammy competition besides Patton Oswalt, but it's still pretty early there.
And the RNRHOF? Eh.....not so much

Honestly if he doesnt get in the Rock Hall in the next year, maybe two, hes pretty screwed. Hes going to be looked at as a has been who doesnt even have a record deal anymore.
