Simpsons Comics

    (Bongo, 1993-Present)
©1993 Bongo Entertainment, Inc. The Simpsons © and ™ Twentieth Century Fox Film Corporation

TV’s favorite dysfunctional cartoon family first appeared in comics in Marvel’s 1992 one-shot, Simpsons Comics and Stories. In late 1993, they returned, under the new Bongo Entertainment Group. This title is the flagship of a line that includes Itchy & Scratchy Comics, Radioactive Man, and Bartman.

The Simpsons themselves became something of an American national craze in the late eighties and early nineties. In particular, the family’s exuberant young troublemaker, Bart, was featured on countless T-shirts, lunch boxes, and other merchandise accompanied by personal quotes such as, “Don’t have a cow, Man!” Created by cartoonist Matt Groening (“rhymes with ‘complaining’”), the Simpsons are a sort of comic antidote to the Brady Bunch. They often drive each other to wits’ end, but are ultimately just a lovable family of misfits.
