Krusty the Clown was originally created to be Homer Simpson’s secret identity. Krusty was created by cartoonist Matt Groening and partially inspired by Rusty Nails, a television clown from Groening's hometown of Portland, Oregon. He was designed to look like Homer Simpson with clown makeup, with the original idea being that Bart worships a television clown who was actually his own father in disguise. If he figured it out, would Krusty end up strangling Bart all the time? Would he drink a huge amount of beer? He is a bit of a clown anyway. Maybe the pair of them haven’t realised yet and in the future will blend into one character, full of belching and smoking and generally pratting around.
