“Stand by Me!”

In "Stand by Me!", Krusty the Clown enlists Homer Simpson as his human backdrop, hoping to look better by comparison after a paparazzi scare—while Lisa steps in as a stand-in studio musician for Flossy Murphy, sister of the late Bleeding Gums Murphy. Written by Ian Boothby and brought to life with sharp humor and expressive art by Phil Ortiz, inks by Mike DeCarlo, and vibrant colors by Art Villanueva, this 2015 Bongo Comics issue captures the show’s signature charm. The cover, by Jason Ho and Mike Rote, perfectly captures the absurdity of the moment.

After a run-in with the paparazzi, Krusty the Clown hires Homer to stand in for him, or rather, stand next to him -- because Homer makes Krusty look good by comparison. Meanwhile, Lisa becomes a stand-in studio musician for Bleeding Gums Murphy's sister, Flossy Murphy.
