Simpsons Comics #196

Manufacturer/Publisher: Bongo Comics (Release Date: 11/21/2012)

Writer: Ian Boothby • Artist: John Costanza

Description

After going to a used book sale at the library, Homer and Lisa take some books to the Springfield Retirement Castle, where Grampa read to them from The Complete Works of Oscar Wilde. However, without his missing glasses, Grampa's take on the Irish poet and playwright's fairy stories become truly wild indeed.
