===Profile=== Comic Book Guy (who states Jeff Albertson to be his real name in the episode "[[Homer and Ned's Hail Mary Pass]]"<ref name="nerve">{{Cite web|url= http://www.nerve.com/entertainment/2010/05/07/ten-times-the-simpsons-jumped-the-shark|title= Ten Times The Simpsons Jumped the Shark|last= Greene|first= James Jr.|date= May 6, 2010|access-date= January 12, 2012|publisher= Nerve.com|archive-date= February 20, 2012|archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20120220164739/http://www.nerve.com/entertainment/2010/05/07/ten-times-the-simpsons-jumped-the-shark|url-status= dead}}</ref>) is a nerdy, snobby and quarrelsome man. He is best known for his eloquence and crabby, sarcastic quips. He is obsessed with collecting comic books and is an avid [[science fiction]] buff. He holds a [[master's degree]] in [[folklore]] and [[mythology]] (having translated ''[[The Lord of the Rings]]'' into [[Klingon language|Klingon]] as part of his [[thesis]]),<ref>"[[Three Men and a Comic Book]]"</ref> as well as a degree in chemical engineering,<ref>[[Married to the Blob]]</ref> has an IQ of 170, and is a member of the Springfield branch of [[Mensa International|Mensa]].<ref name="LisasBrain">{{cite episode |title=They Saved Lisa's Brain |episode-link=They_Saved_Lisa's_Brain |series=The Simpsons |series-link= The Simpsons |credits= Selman, Matt; Michels, Pete|network=Fox |season=10 |number=22}}</ref> He is morbidly obese and has long hair, which he always keeps tied in a ponytail. His catchphrase is the declaration "worst/best [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]]". Another example of breaking the fourth wall occurs in an episode when Comic Book Guy's chair collapses, and he sarcastically says "Ooh, a fat man falls. ''Real'' original."<ref name=SaddlesoreGalactica/> Despite his solitary life, in ''[[The Simpsons Movie]]'', minutes before his anticipated death, Comic Book Guy says that his obsessive comic book collecting has been a "life well spent". However, in "[[Treehouse of Horror VIII]]", when a nuclear missile homes in on him, he says to himself, "Oh, I've wasted my life", although the [[Treehouse of Horror (series)|''Treehouse of Horror'' episodes]] are not part of the normal ''Simpsons'' canon. In the 2008 episode "[[Any Given Sundance]]" it was revealed that he is also a writer and posts to his own site called "Ain't I Fat News", a take on the real-life movie review website [[Ain't It Cool News]].<ref>{{cite web|title=I AM COMIC BOOK GUY!!!|url=http://www.aintitcool.com/node/36621|access-date=December 12, 2012|date=May 7, 2008}}</ref>
