Earlier, artists James Harvey and Ryan Humphrey challenged the internet with an epic proposal: Retell Otomo Katsuhiro’s manga cult classic Akira in its entirety, using only characters from The Simpsons.

We always knew there was some cyberpunk in Bart Simpson. The deadline for submissions is May 24th — until then, check out the awesome comic-hybrid monstrosities here.
