Edna Krabappel

Edna Krabappel is Bart Simpson's perpetually exasperated fourth-grade teacher at Springfield Elementary, a world-weary educator whose idealism has long since been ground down by decades of thankless classroom duty in the chaotic Simpsons universe.

Springfield's most exasperated educator, Edna Krabappel made her Bongo Comics debut in Simpsons Comics #5 in 1994, brought to the page by Steve Vance and Bill Morrison during the franchise's early comics golden age. Over roughly two decades of publication, she kept colorful company with the likes of Krusty the Clown, Groundskeeper Willie, and Milhouse Van Houten across the pages of Simpsons Comics and Simpsons Comics Explosion. Her catalog appearances are select rather than sprawling, making each one a treat for fans who love the weary, wry heart she brings to the halls of Springfield Elementary.
