    I don’t know quite why I made this. I’m not sure if it’s funny, but it does make me giggle for no apparent reason. I hope it does the same for you.

    Mr. The Edge — as cited in U2 by U2 — gets credit for his youthful similarity to Alfred E. Neuman (of MAD magazine fame). I don’t know why Big Bird resembles a young Adam Clayton, but for some cosmic reason it seems to work. Lucky, of Lucky Charms cereal, evokes the spirit of the young bulletproof Bono.

    Special thanks to @U2 reader ‘roman’ for the Bart Simpson reference.

    OK, I’ll have to admit that while I have a good time reading cartoons, it’s pretty rare the one that makes me laugh.

    This one, on the other hand, really makes me laugh. Keep up the good work!

    Re: Big Bird — it’s the afro, isn’t it?

    Wow. There is no rhyme or reason, but this is perfect. I would never in my life have compared Larry to Bart Simpson, but its uncanny! And Bono’s (Lucky) face…classic.

    I think I’m falling in love with your webcomic genius, Ian.

    oh, come now, you are all far too kind — except for Erika, she’s also an angel, too.

    Many Thanks.

    When I told a friend of mine about this cartoon, she agreed with Bart-as-Larry but had an alternate suggestion as well: Calvin of “Calvin and Hobbes.”

    I knew Bart Simpson’s hair had always seemed familiar to me - now it all becomes clear.

    Larry as Bart Simpson!!!Works for me ;) Now I know why subconciously I always liked Bart from the entire Simpson characters.
