Simpsons Comics #47
In "The Homer Show," Homer Simpson unwittingly becomes a cultural phenomenon after his bloopers go viral, turning him into a reluctant celebrity—though he has no idea why everyone suddenly finds him so entertaining. Written by Chuck Dixon and illustrated by Phil Ortiz, with inks by Tim Bavington, colors by Nathan Kane, and letters by Jeannine Black, this 2000 Titan Comics issue captures the absurdity of fame through Homer’s blissfully unaware perspective. The cover, by Bill Morrison, perfectly encapsulates the gag with its playful, exaggerated take on Homer’s sudden notoriety.
