Patreon Prints - December 2022
Patrons get TWO prints this month! The people voted for a Moevember print based on last year's design, and it felt only right to do one for this year too! I gotta say, they look really good together:So if you'd like these two A5 prints, please sign up to the Patreon at the £10 ("Robo-Ninja-Agent-Force"...
Bonus! Old Man and Singing Sirloin
You fell for my trap, you fool!Last week I told you we'd probably never see "Old Lady" again, but here she is, and she's dyed her hair and hooked up with one of the other residents of the Retirement Castle!They're adorable, I hope they have many happy years together.The Singing Sirloin is one of the...
0157 - Security Guard
A new week and a new episode! Our first new friend in "Life On The Fast Lane" is this mall security guard who appears a full 19 years before the movie "Paul Blart: Mall Cop", making him a true pioneer.Worth noting for posterity that this is not the first appearance of the Springfield Mall, a surprisingl...
The Telltale Head - round up!
Episode 8 is in the CAN. A few major characters in this one! Springfield is starting to take shape - the inclusion of many characters we've seen before in the mob scene really makes it start to feel like this is a consistent town full of recurring faces. I think we can all agree the most lasting and recognisable ch...
0156 - Man in Bear Costume
Our final character in The Telltale Head is a very minor one, just the way I like it. He appears in the dramatization of Jebidiah Springfield's life on TV, but he does make a distinct fake roar sound, allowing him inclusion in this prestigious project.The Jebidiah actor has no lines in this scene, so he will remain...
BONUS! Old Person and Lady
One last minor trip to obscurity before we wrap up this episode:When unusual and unique character designs like these two stand out to me, it just seems fun to throw them into the mix. I think about how needlessly exhaustive this project has become, and I don't want to miss any fun opportunities. Like, these two are...
Moevember, Week 4
We have come to the end of this moe-st glorious month. Thank you all for indulging me in this stupidity.The final batch of Moes are: Moe-ker, Moe-toro, Porc-Moe Ross-Moe, Charmoeleon, Moe-ki, Moe-nion, Ne-Moe, and Pinocchi-Moe.Will I keep this up next year? Unlikely! I have run out of ridiculous puns.
0155 - Jebidiah Springfield Statue
This counts as a full character because he talks to Bart through the latter half of this episode, with lip-sync and everything!And of course, it is far more recognisable than most of the characters that we even cover here, appearing in the town square of Springfield. I think if you were to ask a random fan to name Spri...
0154 - Snowball II
Snowball II appeared long before this episode, with a "line" even, in the first episode:But I'm including her here because of the little noise she makes in Bart's stealth sequence, and also because it seemed wrong that Santa's Little Helper had an entry but not the cat:It took me years to get the jo...
Moevember, Week 3!
Moe. Moe. Moe.Here we have El-moe, Moe-fessor Frink, Moe-rothy Gale, Scare-Moe, Iron Moe, Moe-star Runner, Tomat-Moe, Danny Zuk-Moe and Moe-by Dick.Are these puns getting worse or better?
BONUS! Guy Getting Stabbed and Ninja Bart
I am stretching the plausibility of this silly project here, huh?He gets status as a bonus character because he...uh...has no lines. But if he did have a line it would probably be "argh" or perhaps "ugh".Also I drew Ninja Bart for fun.This post is part of my "Every Simpsons Character Ever" serie...
0153 - Bill Dandy
Do not worry folks, I went back and checked - this is NOT Mr Chupo, the candy store employee from Bart The Hero. They clearly look different, and they spell and pronounce their names differently. Springfield is a town with two dedicated candy stores, which make sense in a way.The Telltale Head features Bill biggest rol...
Do The Artman Digital Download
My Simpsons art zine "Do The Artman" is now available as a PDF! Download it here!This is a collection of my Simpsons themed paintings and pieces - you may have seen some of them before (some of them have been prints!) but there are some new exclusive pieces. I hope you enjoy them!If you'd like a physical co...
0152 - Apu Nahasapeemapetilon
Apu is probably the most significant character that we had not gotten to yet. Well today is finally his day to shine!I think the reason it has taken this long to get to him is that his role shifts drastically after the first season or two. We know Apu as a mainstay, taking a prominent role in the Simpson family's l...
Patreon Print - November 2022
The poll has spoken! This month's print will be "Powerful Like A Gorilla, Yet Soft And Yielding Like A Nerf Ball"!If you'd like this piece delivered straight to your door as an A5 print, be a £10 or higher patron for this month! It'll be sent out early in December. And of course feel free to get in...
Moevember, Week 2!
Another week, another round of Moes!This time we have Vincent Van Moe, Moe-nel Sanders, Moe-nald McDonald, Moe-d Runner, Moe-boas Fünke, Moe-key Mouse, Moe-nald Duck, Shrek the Moe-gre and Indiana Moe-ns!Hope you're enjoying the moe-dness!
0151 - Cinema Manager
Considering how prominent the Aztec Theater is in Springfield (I'd say it's a b-list location), it's surprising that this guy is a one time appearance.Most of the time when we see employees at this particular cinema, they are some form of squeaky voiced teen, and by season 7's "King-Size Homer" ...
0150 - Actor
I love when the milestone numbers sync up with total nobodies. The actors from Space Mutants 4: The Trilogy Continues must have terrible agents, because they don't show up in any of the show's many other fictional films.Thanks for joining me for 150 characters! It's so absurd that we've gotten this far,...

It's that time once again! Vote for your favourite design and I'll decide the Patron Print based on this poll!If this is your first vote, it's pretty simple! Vote for the design you want as the Patreon print this month, and first/second places will get their time in the sun this month and next!I thought I&#...
Moevember, Week 1!
It's the moe-sssst wonderful time of the year!Some of you remember Moevember, a drawing challenge where I post a different Moe every day this month, from last year. If you don't, here's a handy dandy thread of it all!Well I've decided to do it again this year! And you lucky patron folk will get to see t...
0149 - Actor
Happy Halloween! Let's celebrate with a spooooky look at Springfield's in-universe horror franchise! I totally planned this and the date lining up was definitely on purpose!This is one of two actors who appears in Space Mutants 4: The Trilogy Continues.In the film, they are eaten by a space mutant. Our glimpses...
0148 - Dolph Starbeam
Another surprise surname, as revealed in season 18's "24 Minutes", so I did a little digging...and it's messy, which is what we like to see."Starbeam" seems to come from the fact that Dolph's parents were hippies, although I have not found the episode that reveals this. We see his father bea...
0147 - Kearney Zzyzwicz
I've known some of these characters most of my life, and they still find ways to surprise me. Zzyzwicz? Who knew? I keep having to check the spelling every time I encounter it.The most noteworthy thing about Kearney is his age, apparently being an adult man who still attends high school. In season 13 he tells us he...
0146 - Jimbo Jones
Corky James Jones, or Jimbo as we generally know him, is a character whose purpose will shift depending on what character's point of view we see him from.To Bart, or any of the younger characters, Jimbo is a threat, a menace, the top of the food chain. He is an unsurpassable obstacle, a force of nature, a necessary...
0145 - Churchgoer
The lynchpin of the show's central thesis hinges on this character, I can't believe we've finally gotten to her:You see, in a true study of 20th century Americana, no exploration is fully complete without a look into...nah I'm just messing with you. This is a one-time nobody.I do like when I get a chara...
BONUS! Church Outfits
As this is the first time in the show that the Simpsons attend church, this is the first time we see these recognisable outfits, which are pretty consistent throughout the show. A couple of notes:- slicking down Bart's hair like that really makes me question how it works exactly. The spikes appear to usually be pro...
0144 - Ms Albright
I'm not even sure I knew she had a name until now:Albright's appearance is consistent throughout, although she loses her glasses (probably misses her old glasses.) She's not really a character outside of Sunday school, her role is for children's funny religion observations to bounce off her. I can see h...
0143 - Angry Man
This guy appears just after the last entry, and although the lip sync is a bit more sketchy for him, I am still giving him pride of place in the hallowed halls of this stupid project:I think these two are noteworthy because while this is the show's first big angry mob (first of many), it is already filled with fami...
0142 - Angry Man
We're doing three updates this week as these next too seem far too insignificant to stretch out too long.I actually almost missed this character on my initial watch through - he appears for less than a second before Homer turns his head and blocks him, this screenshot was difficult to grab.It's debatable that h...
Cosmo the Stoat Digital Download
My new comic, Cosmo the Stoat, is now available as a PDF! Check the attachment.Cosmo the Stoat is an homage to the Sonic comics of the 1990s, and asks the question: What happens when the hero's glory days are behind him? Several years after his greatest victory, Cosmo is struggling to find purpose - can he grow up ...
