iha ok

[Samantha · Rating 4 out of 5]

Four stars just because it has a few stories about Ralph Wiggum.

If you're a fan of the Simpsons, it's really hard not to like the comics. The art looks really close the TV show, the characterization is usually spot on, and the stories are always entertaining.

[Pamela · Rating 3 out of 5]

Not nearly as good as some of the other comics. A lot of the stories had rushed endings or just fell flat.

The 50ft Maggie & Bart’s Radioactive man comic were my favourites of the bunch.

meh. not funny

[Elizabeth · Rating 4 out of 5]

This read was a lot of fun basically. Some of the better Simpsons comics are in this volume, with lots of fun little stories about different characters (although there is obviously more about Bart than other characters).

I'd definitely recommend this to any Simpsons fan, even as a first look into the Simpsons comics. Plenty of moments that gave me a good chuckle, one to keep in my collection.

Collection of Bart Simspsons comics put into one graphic novel makes for some easy reading when you need a break from 'serious reading'. It's probably one you could sit down and read in one big lot because the stories aren't that long and it's all light hearted kids fun.
