The syndicated Simpsons newspaper comic strip, written and illustrated by notable comics creators almost 30 years ago—reprinted and collected for the first time

The Simpsons have been a part of Sunday night television for more than a generation, but there was a time when our favorite family were also part of many people’s Sunday mornings as well—in the form of a weekly syndicated newspaper comic strip.

Originally syndicated by Bongo Comics from 1999 to 2004, 126 of these full-color comic strips are being collected for the first time. The Simpsons newspaper strips were written by notable creators from the world of comics, young adult fiction, and television, and illustrated by classic comics artists.

Topics range from Simpson family adventures, history lessons, how-tos, pop culture, and Springfield retellings of classic nursery rhymes. Now, for the first time, readers can finally enjoy the complete run of the Simpsons Sunday funnies—and they won’t even get ink on their hands!
