Simpsons Comics #100 from Bongo Comics; various artists and writers
What happens when you're looking to buy some new comics but the space within the house can no longer contain them and is having trouble enough breathing with the ones that are already inside? Buy a bigger house? Build a new storey? Suck them into a vacuum bag, the likes of which are seen forevere endlessly on infomercials during a late night/midday stupor? One woman thought she had the answer, just throw away all the old ones.
Marge Simpson, a long time resident of Springfield and dedicated homemaker, was snapped on the cover of the new
Simpsons Comics #100 emptying out a box load of comics into the kerbside bin. Her son, Bart, seen in the background, is clearly distraught - and possibly in backward shock - at the sight of his beloved collection, or segments thereof, making its way headlong into the trash.
However, if the evergreen trend for tree-hugging councils around the world follows a pattern, the shock in this instance should be worn upon the face of Marge Simpson. Council laws and regulations in most eco-conscious towns and suburbs impose fines and penalties for individuals caught throwing recyclable material in with the general rubbish.
But, as unnamed sources would suggest, Marge Simpson may not have anything to fear if her connections run as deep as an ingrown toenail.
Along with a failed pretzel enterprise with rumoured ties to the Mafia, Simpson's past includes a stint in the local law enforcement. A marked footnote of which includes vanishing crates of imitation jeans believed, at several points during the investigation, to have been housed at the family home.
With such damning evidence presented on the front of any publication, ordinary citizens would have a lot to worry about. Marge Simpson, it seems, can do no wrong no matter how strong the foul smelling uproar, and despite the candid photographic proof, will likely go unpunished for her actions. It's enough to make an
ardent environmentalist faint.
