Who here reads Simpsons comics? I collect them, along with many other Simpsons items. I find that I can read them during the day to get my Simpsons fix when it isn't on the T.V. I have a favourite one too. It is called 'Lisa in Wordland' and it is a very interesting ripoff of 'Alice in Wonderland', and I just wondered if any body else reads the comics so that we can discuss them as we do with the show itself! Lisa Well, I have probably gone on long enough... I have a habbit of doing that. I hope you like my topic and I look forward to reading any replies that are posted!

I don't make a habit out of reading comics, and never have. I usually just stick to books, comics have never really appealed to me as far as something that I can sit down with for awhile. However I did dip into my friend's Simpsons comics whilst at his house last year... I don't quite remember what the comic was called, but I found the story mildly interesting and was let down when I couldn't find the discarded comic the next day.

All I remember was that Dr. Hibbert discovered the "Flanders birthmark" on Bart, and it was suggested that perhaps Bart and Rod were exchanged at birth. This resulted in Rod living in the Simpson household, and Bart at the Flanders house.

During the course of Rod's stay with the Simpsons, he and Lisa found out that they had a lot in common, and got along much better as brother and sister than she and Bart ever had... so when it was revealed that the "Flanders birthmark" found on Bart was nothing more than chewing gum, Lisa was quite let down.

That's all that I can remember, although I know there was more. Hence my disappointment about not being able to find it the next day Wink Ah, well.

I'm lying still, my eyes are wide
My heart is pumping, I'm still alive

I'm still awake against my will
What will it ever take

Yay, I like Simpsons-Comics a lot, I have all from 40 - today! And I got paper bags for the older comics. So I do know every single comic. I love the story with Lisa getting a poet and fighting in an poet contest against Martin. Really heartful, even for a simple comic. Liked it very much. ^_^

That would be Bart Simpson #9, O Bart, where art thou? It's available in The Big Bratty Book of Bart which you can probably find on Amazon. I could also scan it...

I have a rather large collection of Simpsons Comics which could probably total more than 100.

YAY! I'm glad people like this topic and I am glad that I am not the only one that reads Simpsons comics! I like the one where lisa and martin have poetry competitions against each other too. It is very funny and I like the way it ends. i read that one in the Simpsons comics Ago-Go, which is a digest sized paper back. Keep writing about your favourite comics, and ask questions if you need to. I'm sure that someone out there will be able to answer them!!!

I was collecting both English and Russian versions some time ago. It was interesting, I must admit... there is a difference between the Simpsons episodes and comics, even official ones. Characters are usually put in much more weird and unusual situations, there are moments we'd hardly see in the show. Several issues were just brilliant to me, for example, that Halloween issue (don't remember the #), where Simpsons family was assisting Frodo Baggins in his Ring adventure. The moment when Marge has cured the Evil Eye, made me laugh. Big Grin

There *is* one Lisa comic - "Lisa in Wordland" (a parody to Alice in Wonderland, I guess). I have its scanned copy - btw, you can download it here, from the "Lisa Comics" folder. It wasn't bad at all, but wasn't fantastic either. Just a nice comic with Lisa and her cat as main characters. Smile

@Serge: Wow, thanks for the link! Smile I do have that comic (the German Edition was published not before last year), but since I got it as a gift, signed by Bill Morrison himself, I didn't touch it at all and put it straight into a picture frame. Smile

If you liked the link, better download stuff fast, because the hosting will be down in a week or two (the hosting has expired 1,5 months ago, but for some reason they prolonged it for 60 more days. They think I will pay... Rolls Eyes )
And about Bill Morrison-signed Lisa Comic... why you little Evil Big Grin

Well, I'm not that interested in the comics, but a Lisa comic is certainly very nice. Smile

I rarely get and read the Simpsons Comics.

But I used to be a devoted collector when I was younger.

I still enjoy the THOH Comics Specials a lot.

The latest special issue I've got was a Superhero special featuring the Pie Man  Homer
