Simpsons Comics #21

In "Stand and Deliverance," Matt Groening brings his signature satirical edge to the page with a sharp, politically charged installment from his long-running "Life In Hell" strip, originally published September 22, 1995. Presented in full within this 1996 Bongo Comics issue, the piece offers a wry, self-aware commentary on contemporary issues, paired with a brief article promoting the strip—both rendered in Groening’s distinctive, expressive style. The cover by Bill Morrison captures the story’s irreverent tone with bold, clean lines that mirror the strip’s incisive humor.
