So I just discovered something straight out of a fever dream…

Apparently, from 2014 to 2017 a number of artists from all over the world recreated the Manga Akira with characters from The Simpsons and called it “Bartkira”

and this wasn’t just some “ha ha look at this funny thing” oneshot…

they recreated all 6 volumes with 300-400 pages each  

Bart is Kaneda, Millhouse is Tetsuo and Akira… well Ralph is Akira…

I wish I was making this up… 

Is this the rumored American Akira remake? We’ll never know… 

well the original website doesn’t seem to work properly anymore so I uploaded all 6 volumes here for all of you to enjoy… have fun

“The pressure is always so high for women, I feel blessed that I look like me. I’ve always had to love myself, through everyone else’s expectations, because there’s nothing that I could do to fit into their ideal. I’m not going to hurt myself. I’m not going to belittle myself. I know who I am and where I come from, and my people are beautiful. I’m not going to do anything but honor that.” Wunmi Mosaku for ESSENCE magazine (July/August 2021)
