Celebrate National Comic Book Day With Comic Book Guy From ‘The Simpsons’
Pop quiz: What’s the Best. National. Day. Ever? National Comic Book Day, of course! Every Sept. 25, Nerd Nation honors the art and awesomeness of the humble comic book, which — for better or for worse — has become the source of so much of our modern cinematic and televised entertainment. But rather than using this space to extol the virtues of superheroes and their super-battles with supervillains, we’re giving the National Comic Book Day pulpit to the world’s biggest comic book fan: The Simpsons‘ own Jeffrey Albertson, a.k.a. Comic Book Guy. Here are 11 GIFs that showcase the wit and wisdom of this classic Springfield scene-stealer.
The Simpsons premieres Sunday, Sept. 25 at 8 p.m. on Fox.
