Simpsons Comics #161
In "Ragin' Abe Simpson and the Flying Hellfish in: War Is Smelly!", Lisa Simpson visits Grampa to research World War II, only to be swept into a wildly exaggerated tale of his military past. What begins as a school assignment spirals into a fantastical story of heroism, where Grampa claims to have saved a village from the Ratzis as a member of the legendary Flying Hellfish. Written by Chuck Dixon and illustrated by Dan Spiegle and Jason Ho, with inks by Mike Rote and colors by Art Villanueva, the issue blends wartime whimsy with classic Simpsons humor. The cover, by Jason Ho and Mike Rote, captures the absurdity of the tale in bold, energetic style.
