Milhouse Mussolini Van Houten would play a crucial role in The Simpsons, Bart Simpson's best fried. Milhouse with his blue hair, big nose and extreme nearsightedness (depicted by very small eyes), intelligence but somewhat poor social skills balanced out the nearly opposite Bart. Offered here is a ULTRA-RARE 18" x 24" artwork graced in black felt tip marker of a large Milhouse by creator Matt Groening who adds "It's Milhouse! Matt G. 2019" in bold red felt tip marker. It's worth noting sketches turn up from time-to-time from Groening, but due to the amount of time, underlying sketch drawing & felt tip strokes needed to complete this drawing we have labeled this with the rare artwork rendering rather than more common sketch format. This sketch was part of a giveaway by Groening at the 2019 San Diego Comic Con, and a photograph of Groening at the convention, with the piece in hand, is included. Overall in fine condition with minor handling wear, slight staining, rolled & discoloration otherwise fine.
