Homer Becomes Homelander & Still Chokes Bart In The Boys & The Simpsons Crossover Art

Summary The Simpsons has crossed over with The Boys in fan art that depicts Homer Simpson as Homelander.

The crossover includes Homer choking Bart, who is dressed as Ryan, and facing off against Ned Flanders dressed as Omni-Man from Invincible.

The potential for a Simpsons parody of The Boys exists, but it would need to tone down mature themes from the superhero show if it ever happened.

Homer Simpson from The Simpsons becomes Homelander in The Boys in crossover art, where he still chokes Bart and faces off against another super-powered character. The Simpsons is no stranger to referencing shows and movies in pop culture, having done so for plenty of superheros in Marvel and DC before. However, despite The Boys season 4 ending in recent weeks, references to the series have been seemingly nonexistent. Even though plenty of different media crossovers have happened before, the animated comedy has yet to directly connect with the superhero show.

Now, Nathan Made It has posted fan art of Homer from The Simpsons turning into Homelander from The Boys, donning his costume while acting like the character.

The images show that, even while in his new persona, he's still choking Bart, who is dressed like Homelander's son Ryan in the art. Another image also shows him facing down Ned Flanders, who is dressed as Omni-Man from Invincible.

Why A Simpsons Parody Of The Boys Would Be Hilarious

The Simpsons has referenced Marvel plenty of times throughout its 35-season run, alongside making plenty of jokes about DC superheroes as well. However, The Boys remains untapped potential for the series, which could easily use its characters to make parodic versions of those from the series. This could include what Nathan has dubbed "Homer-lander," using the protagonist as a vessel for the villain in a comedic fashion. Other characters could then become their own parodies of the superhero show's cast, creating a hilarious story in the process.

However, the Prime Video series is known for its incredibly mature jokes, which have included extreme gore and sexual references most of the time. If The Simpsons really did decide to make a parody of the show, it would need to tone down these elements to stay in line with its own rating. This means it would need to rely more on character personalities and events from the series when poking fun at it. However, it could still reference the more mature elements of the show, perhaps pointing them out without ever showing anything graphic.

Since The Boys' cast isn't as vast as The Simpsons one is, the series would need to carefully select who would be a stand-in for which character during the spoof. While Homelander and Bart's roles seem pretty set in stone, there would still be openings for characters like Butcher, Maeve, and Black Noir. Since the animated comedy is so experienced with parodying a plethora of other media, making "Homer-lander" canon doesn't feel outside the realm of possibility.

The Simpsons season 36 premieres on Fox later this year. The Boys season 5 arrives on Prime Video in 2026.
