Are We All "The Comic Book Guy"?
In Response To: Customized? ()

Comic Book Guy is an obese, nerdy and snobby man best known for his sarcastic quips. Although he is 45 years old, he is obsessed with collecting comic books and is an avid science fiction buff. He holds a master's degree in folklore and mythology (he translated The Lord of the Rings into Klingon as part of his thesis), has an IQ of 170 and is a member of the Springfield branch of Mensa. He has long hair which he always keeps tied in a ponytail. His catch phrase is the declaration "Worst [subject] ever", sometimes to the point of breaking the fourth wall. For example, in the episode "Saddlesore Galactica", he wears a T-shirt saying "Worst Episode Ever" while criticizing the idea of the Simpson family keeping a horse since it had already been done. Despite his solitary life, in The Simpsons Movie, minutes before his likely death, Comic Book Guy says that his obsessive comic book collecting is a "life well spent". However, in "Treehouse of Horror VIII", when a nuclear missile homes in on him, he says to himself "Ohh, I've wasted my life." In the 19th season finale, "All About Lisa", it is revealed that he has long, beautiful, overflowing hair. Comic Book Guy not only has a heart attack in Season 12 but encounters death twice; once in a French Missile Strike on Springfield, and also in "Treehouse of Horror XVI", where Comic Book guy is killed by Mr. Burns for refusing to run for five whole minutes.
