There's only one way that fans can truly enjoy a forgotten piece of The Simpsons' iconic voice actors.
In 2016, The Simpsons' designer Phil Ortiz handed out a four-page comic called "Nazis on Tap", a short originally intended to pad out the running time of "Bart the Daredevil". Along with the comic, Ortiz also handed out a recording of the cast voicing the short (which can be found on YouTube).
The short lampoons cartoons produced in WWII and Homer is making planes for the war effort. Hitler manages to trick Homer into giving up details about D-Day, but before Hitler can put them to use, he's stopped by Bart, who is thanked by President Roosevelt for his actions.

A Piece of Simpsons' History is Rescued From Obscurity
During the stand out in Simpsons' history.
It might seem weird that the team wanted to tack on a short film like this, but the same thing happened with "The Front" and its short, "The Adventures of Ned Flanders". Of course, this one is quite a bit more odd, as it's a send-up of World War II-era animations. Not to mention, it swings for the fences and tries to make Nazis funny (which creator Matt Groening didn't believe they were). As odd as the segment seems, it's cool to see a Simpsons moment that could have lost live on as a comic performed by the voice actors.
"Nazis on Tap" Takes Fans Back to Older Simpsons Era
The Show's Most Bizarre Coda Serves as a Hilarious Throwback to its Earliest Days
Is the idea of "Nazis on Tap" Unusual? Sure. But a lot of things in The Simpsons' early days were bizarre, and it's that offbeat humor that made the world fall in love with the show so many years ago. While it didn't make the cut years ago, the short got a chance to live again, and it's got that same hilarious charm the earliest episodes had. Any fan who's looking to go back in time and get a taste of classic Simpsons humor has everything they need thanks to this comic and the performances given by the voice actors.
