Bibliophilia: Radioactive Man by Matt Groening

Radioactive Man – Matt Groening

I’m an unashamed fan of the Simpsons. One of the few reasons I regret not having a TV, is that I miss out on the Simpsons. And if I am ever somewhere where I have access to a TV for a while, there is a good chance that I will seek out the Simpsons. There have been times that I have been gasping for air from laughing so hard at some of the incredibly smart humour in that show. So, a graphic novel of Simpsons strips will fill the gap for me.

Simpsons: Comics Get Some Fancy Book Learnin’ – Matt Groening

The bible, Greek myth, Shakespeare....as the great philosopher Homer said so eloquently, “Booorrrrring!”

Well with this exciting volume, all those long winded “Wherefore art thous” and “Thou shalt nots” are simplified into colourful panels with a few bite sized words per panel, with all your favourite Simpsons characters standing in.

Noah’s Ark is great, Henry 5th with Professor Frink as Henry, Bart doing the Bard, King Moe-mar Shahryar, “Apu Baba and the Four Thieves” and “Sinbart The Sailor”, Ralph plays Humpty Dumpty, Itchy and Scratchy doing Titus Andronicus.
