I guess its not complete garbage but it is almost completely pointless and felt like a waste of time reading it. If the entire series is like this I'm surprised it lasted as long as it did. Each story is pretty dull and not related to each other. I love the Simpsons and I picked it up at the bookstore for $1 so I did finish it but this is not a good read.

While the Simpsons animated show is extremely popular and has lasted a long time, the humor is not for everyone. At times simply stupid and at other times cerebral, there is real genius in the show. It has been on for 30 seasons, fortunately for the producers, cartoon characters can be altered in appearance, but they never really have to age. It is a tribute to the people that create the show that they have been able to keep it sharp and topical for this length of time.

Of course, it helps that reality continues to feed them humorous situations that are ripe for appearing on this show. Although this comic form of stories involving this famous family do not have the same impact that the visual form has, reading them will inform you whether you will find the humor in the show to your taste. In some ways the humor comes across as a bit more bizarre in print, at least to me. It is a work of true genius.

Utvrdila jsem se v tom, že komiks není nic pro mě. 3* jen proto, že jsou to Simpsonovi.

Jako dost nuda... pár dobrejch vtípků to nezachránilo. (únik padoucha po žebříku z helikoptéry...)

This is a pity 2-star review. I really wanted to give it 1-star, but I did chuckle occasionally. Sadly unimpressed with this. Bizarre non-canonical stories and poor jokes throughout. Everything is figuratively and literally two-dimensional. Just watch the show instead. Even some of their lesser episodes are better than this. And though this site counts this "book" towards my reading goal for 2016, I intend to not count this as part of my goal. I will read something more substantive instead. This is a pity 2-star review.

A simple pleasure of several comic-style stories of The Simpsons. Pleasing to the eye and a new take on the popular series, the comic versions of The Simpsons are wonderful to wind away 10 minutes or so per adventure.
