Bart Simpson

Bart Simpson is the mischievous, skateboarding eldest son of Homer and Marge Simpson, originating from the hit animated TV series before appearing in Bongo Comics publications. He is a perpetual ten-year-old troublemaker attending Springfield Elementary.

Few characters bridge the gap between TV phenomenon and genuine comics institution quite like Bart Simpson, who made his comic book debut in Cracked #260 in 1991 — a Copper/Modern Age entry crafted by Jerry De Fuccio, Lou Silverstone, and Frank Borth. Over more than three decades, Bart has anchored Bongo's Simpsons Comics alongside the full Springfield crew — Homer, Marge, Lisa, Maggie, and loyal pal Milhouse Van Houten — building a comics legacy that stands apart from the animated series that made him a household name. With 55 catalog appearances, at least one recognized key issue, and a run stretching all the way to 2024, this is a character whose comic book life rewards collectors who look beyond the screen.
