proclaiming "Springfield's #1 Hooligan!" instead of "America's Typical Teenager" and the script "comics" on the lower right, illustrated above to the right with Archie #37 from January 1949.&nbsp;&nbsp;Bongo then wisely chose to integrate a famous element of the subsequent design that began in January 1956 with Archie #81, the face of Archie above the title.&nbsp;&nbsp;This is illustrated to the right with Archie #101 from June 1959, mirrored on Wedgie with the face of Jimbo. </font> <!-- COVER NAV --> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <br><br> <a

The Christmas theme of this story mirrors The Waltons series pilot "The Homecoming: A Christmas Story", and many of the character's names in the story mimick characters on The Waltons. Although The Waltons did appear on the cover of many TV Guides they weren't in a sleigh - although they did record "Sleigh Ride" on a 1999 Christmas album. During this story they also morph through Beverly Hills 90210, The Partridge Family, Leave it To Beaver and the movie It's a Wonderful Life. </font> <font size="1" face="MS Sans Serif"><br><br></font> </td> </tr> </table> <A NAME="SC015AN"></A> <table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"> <tr> <td width="600" valign="top"> <center> <img src="../bin/comics_sc015bcL.gif" width="263" height="402" alt="Simpsons Comics #15 Back Cover"> <img src="../bin/comics_sc015_Famous Funnies.gif" width="263" height="402" alt="Famous Funnies #1"> </center> <font size=-1><br></font> <font face="MS Sans Serif" size=2> The back cover of this comic <b>Heinous Funnies #1</b> dated December 1933 is an obvious parody of <b>Famous Funnies #1</b> from July 1934, considered the first comic.
