Aesop's Fables is a Simpsons Comics story that appears in Simpsons Comics #70.

Aesop, played by Ned Flanders, is telling fables to the public but Homer keeps interrupting to jazz them up.

An ant (Flanders) is working hard preparing for winter while a grasshopper (Homer) lazes about all day on his fiddle. When winter arrives, the ant offers the grasshopper half of his food, but the grasshopper eats it all.

A fox (Moe) asks Bart (who repeatedly cries 'wolf') to reach some grapes for him. A dog (Santa's Little Helper) loses his bone in a river trying to attack his reflection. The wind (Selma) and the sun (Patty) have made a bet to see who can make Bart take his jacket off. Bart takes it off for wind because she gave him five drachmas. Bart uses the money to bet on a tortoise against a hare in a race. The tortoise wins after the hare has been found to have taken steroids. The racetrack gets attacked by Wolfman, the Mummy, Dracula, fighting cocks, an eagle, flying saucers, and mole people.
