SEPTEMBER 15, 2016

Tyler Grosso, owner of Superrradical Clothing released a collection of "Bart Tees" which were sold on the Superrradical website until last night. Grosso tweeted a screenshot of an email sent on the behalf of Twentieth Century Fox Film Corporation. Accused of "Infringing Merchandise" Fox demanded that Grosso cease all sales of the infringing merchandise. Grosso initially thought that the email was a simple cease and desist, but turns out Tyler Grosso is actually being sued by The Simpsons.

Grosso complied by removing the "Bart Tees" off of the Superrradical website only after giving his twitter followers thirty minutes to order the last of the t-shirts. Grosso then stated that those who ordered the last of the t-shirts would receive a copy of the email in their parcel as well. 

The Bart Tees are officially gone, but Grosso has recently finished a new project entitled "Sick & Tired which will be released at the end of September.
