He tells Lisa a secret about a magic trick, but when she develops a crush on a boy at school, Lisa accidentally leaks the secret out to a rival magician. However, the Raymondo has one last card tucked up his sleeve and when the rival magician sets to perform the trick, they try to stop him to do so. A quartet of magicians appear on the scene, who attempt to kill the Raymondo, but Lisa finds out they're no match for him.<br /> <br /> == Plot ==<br /> One day, the Simpsons go peach picking. They come back home with too many peaches, so they eat only recipes with peaches. After an while, all the family except Marge gets tired of eating peaches. In an attempt to get rid of the peaches, Homer takes Marge to get a massage. Meanwhile, Bart, Lisa, and Maggie take the peaches to different locations. Bart no longer has his peaches when bullies take over. Lisa is lost in a deserted area. A raccoon chases Lisa inside an illusionist's house. When the illusionist called &quot;[[The Great Raymondo]]&quot; finds her, he questions her and teaches her some magic tricks.<br /> Lisa starts presenting magic tricks to the school, and to &quot;The Great Raymondo&quot;. It soon turns to trouble when she finds the secret to &quot;The Great Milkcan Escape&quot;. She presents to the school but after, the [[Cregg Demon's son|son]] of &quot;[[Cregg Demon]]&quot; &quot;magic freak&quot; tricks her into giving the secret. Then he tells him. Cregg Demon said that he is going to present it at his next magic show, the &quot;World Magic Championship&quot;, and says Houdini's ghost told him in a dream. Raymondo, upset, tells Lisa to get out. Lisa tries to stop doing magic. Soon after, Raymondo forgives her. At the magic show, some other magicians replace the fake milkcan with a real one so that Cregg Demon cannot get out.

<p>Simpsonia Girl: /* Appearances */</p> <hr /> <div>{{Location<br /> |name = Springfield Nuclear Power Plant<br /> |image = [[File:Springfield Nuclear Power Plant.png|250px]]<br /> |District = 100 Industrial Way<br /> |Town = [[Springfield]]<br /> |use = Energy Source<br /> |owner = [[Charles Montgomery Burns]]<br /> |first appearance = &quot;[[Simpsons Roasting on an Open Fire]]&quot;<br /> }}<br /> The '''Springfield Nuclear Power Plant''' is a nuclear power plant owned by [[Charles Montgomery Burns|Mr. Burns]] and the main source of power in Springfield.<br /> <br /> == Profile ==<br /> The plant is notorious for being poorly maintained, largely due to owner [[Charles Montgomery Burns]]' miserliness and safety inspector Homer Simpson's incompetence. A surprise inspection found over 342 violations with an estimated $56 million required to bring the plant up to code, money which Burns refused to spend. Notable safety violations that have been seen include luminous rats in the bowels of the building, pipes and drums leaking [[radioactive waste]], the disposal of waste in a children's playground, plutonium used as a paperweight, cracked cooling towers (fixed in one episode using a piece of chewing gum), skeletons in the basement, dangerously high Geiger counter readings around the perimeter of the plant, flashing red alert signs being ignored by employees, the creation of a mutant subspecies of three-eyed fish and a horrific giant spider. The Emergency Exits are simply painted on.&lt;ref&gt;&quot;[[The Last Temptation of Homer]]&quot;&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> The core of which is a Fissionator 1952 Slow-Fission Reactor. The plant has come close to meltdowns multiple times but has always avoided catastrophe, often due to Homer's luck.<br /> <br /> Security is also shown to be lax, as a ten-year-old spy from [[Albania]] disguised as a foreign exchange student named [[Adil]] took pictures and got information of the plant simply by asking Homer for a tour.&lt;ref&gt;&quot;[[The Crepes of Wrath]]&quot;&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> == Layout ==<br /> === Sector 7-G ===<br /> [[File:Springfield Nuclear Power Plant 6.png|thumb|left|Sector 7-G]]<br /> Sector 7-G is the location of Homer Simpson's workstation, used to help prevent a meltdown in the reactor core. Homer works on a T-437 Safety Console&lt;ref&gt;&quot;[[Bart on the Road]]&quot;&lt;/ref&gt; which displays many buttons and features, including a meter that shows the temperature of the core and a button that controls the emergency override circuit which must be pressed in the event of a meltdown. It also contained a self-destruct button for the plant, which Homer, while asleep, once pressed.&lt;ref&gt;''[[Homer Goes to College]]''&lt;/ref&gt; Emergency doors lock down Sector 7-G whenever a meltdown is imminent. The doors directly behind the Safety Console lead to the Heavy Water Piping Facility.&lt;ref&gt;&quot;[[Boy Meets Curl]]&quot;&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> Sector 7-G was once referred to by Mr Burns as a 'testicle-shrivelling torture chamber' and the people who work there have at various times been classed as 'organ banks', 'seat-moisteners' and 'fork and spoon operators'.<br /> <br /> === Cooling Towers ===<br /> The plant has two Cooling Towers. They both appear the same color with the design of an atom with its nucleus and electrons pictured. Coffee mugs, pencil holders and other cylindrical based shapes can be seen around the plant in the style of the cooling towers.<br /> <br /> === Mr. Burns' office ===<br /> [[File:Springfield Nuclear Power Plant 3.png|right|thumb|Mr. Burns' Office]]<br /> Mr. Burns' Office is located at the top floor of the plant. His office contains multiple trap doors that drop unwanted visitors far from the office (at least one of which contained a pool filled with electric eels&lt;ref&gt;&quot;[[C.E. D'oh]]&quot;&lt;/ref&gt;) and suction tubes from the ceiling that can send people to an area in the Middle East which, according to [[Smithers]], was there before Mr. Burns worked at the plant.&lt;ref&gt;&quot;[[The Last Temptation of Homer]]&quot;&lt;/ref&gt; Mr Burns' desk hides several buttons that can trigger the traps in the room and also call security.&lt;ref&gt;&quot;[[Dog of Death]]&quot;&lt;/ref&gt; There is a small array of security screens on the wall, and the bookcases conceal an escape pod and a germ-proof vault. Mr. Burns' office also contains a stuffed mounted polar bear which conceals a secret access-way, or 'corpse hatch' which leads to the sewers. Mr. Burns used it to dump the body of Smithers' father after he died while preventing a core meltdown many years ago.&lt;ref&gt;&quot;[[The Blunder Years]]&quot;&lt;/ref&gt; There is also a balcony behind a large window.<br /> <br /> === Cafeteria ===<br /> The Plant cafeteria is where the Nuclear Power Plant staff have their lunches. There is a rotating cake tray which is turned by a man pushing on a level on a giant wheel and axle a few meters under the Cafeteria.&lt;ref&gt;&quot;[[Rosebud]]&quot;&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> === Decontamination Showers ===<br /> A shower room where the staff members of the Plant wash themselves at the end of each work day. It was once shown that these showers have a tendency to spout fire.&lt;ref&gt;&quot;[[C.E. D'oh]]&quot;&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> === Auditorium ===<br /> The Nuclear Power Plant has a large auditorium where awards to staff members are given and company wide meetings are held.&lt;ref&gt;&quot;[[Kiss Kiss Bang Bangalore]]&quot;&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> === Employee Break Room ===<br /> [[File:Springfield Nuclear Power Plant 4.png|thumb|right|The Employee Break Room]]<br /> A break room where the staff spend their coffee breaks. The room is usually stocked with coffee and donuts. There is a bulletin board on the wall that has a poster showing how to perform the Heimlich Maneuver.&lt;ref&gt;&quot;[[Homer at the Bat]]&quot;&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> == Non-canon ==<br /> {{Noncanon}}<br /> === The Future ===<br /> It is revealed that the plant is going to eventually upgrade the number of cooling towers (and possibly reactors) from two to at least five, perhaps as a response to the future growth of Springfield or its energy demand.&lt;ref&gt;&quot;[[Future-Drama]] and [[Lisa's Wedding]]&quot;&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> A decade in the future, [[Lenny]] and [[Carl]] have been promoted to the executive board, while [[Milhouse Van Houten]] has become a supervisor. The plant is operated mainly by robots but Homer still retains his familiar position at Sector 7G.<br /> <br /> It is also known that it will have many lawsuits, as written in the billboard at the entrance (&quot;Still operating, despite lawsuits&quot;).<br /> <br /> == Behind the Laughter ==<br /> [[File:NPP Visitors G1.jpg|thumb|right|Visitors guide Side 1]]&lt;br&gt;[[File:NPP Visitors G2.jpg|thumb|right|Visitors guide Side 2]]<br /> The design and folly of Springfield Nuclear Power Plant is often rumored to be based on the real life Trojan Nuclear Power Plant near [[Matt Groening]]'s home town of Portland, Oregon, or the Hanford Site in southeastern Washington. However, Antonia Coffman, Groening's publicist, has said that the Springfield plant's design is generic and that &quot;the Springfield Nuclear Power plant was not based on the Trojan Plant or any other power plant in the country.&quot;&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|last=LaBoe|first=Barbara|url=http://www.tdn.com/articles/2006/05/14/area_news/news07.txt|title='Simpsons' keeps Trojan tower legacy alive ... or does it?|publisher=The Daily News|page=A1|date=2006-05-14|accessdate=2006-05-28}}&lt;/ref&gt; Trojan Nuclear Power Plant opened in 1976 and was infamous for its poor construction and maintenance, resulting in steam generator leaks which ultimately caused the plant to close in 1993 (although other plants replaced theirs). The cooling tower of the Trojan nuclear power plant was finally demolished on May 21, 2006.<br /> <br /> == Trivia ==<br /> *A cawing crow is heard in nearly every establishing shot of the power plant; this is parodied in &quot;[[Kiss Kiss Bang Bangalore]]&quot;, in which a cow can be heard mooing during an outside shot of the India based power plant.<br /> *The SNPP maintains a map of the United States indicating the status of all of the various nuclear facilities. Homer's job includes replacing most of the burnt out lightbulbs on the map.<br /> *The wall that Homer faces in his work station changes between episodes. In some episodes the wall is a window showing reactor piping; in others it is a map of nuclear sites around the country, a solid wall, or a wall with a plaque saying &quot;Don't forget: you're here forever&quot; that has been rearranged by Homer to say &quot;Do it for her&quot; with pictures of Maggie.<br /> *The plant's condition has actually deteriorated over the last few years. In one early episode, Smithers estimates that it would cost $56 million to bring the plant up to code, while in a later episode the new German owners of the plant discover that the cost has soared to $100 million.<br /> *According to a commentary on a Simpsons' DVD, it's stated that there is an actual Homer Simpson working in a nuclear power plant. It is not sure if this is true since there have been no other sources stating this.<br /> *There is a real nuclear facility near Preston, United Kingdom called Springfield's nuclear fuel production facility.<br /> *An all-ages music venue in Augusta, Georgia bears the name &quot;Sector 7G.&quot;<br /> *In The Simpsons Hit &amp; Run video game, you can press the 'Vent' button on a reactor, causing radioactive emissions, even though the button says 'Do Not Press!'.<br /> *Also in Hit and Run you can drive through the core and discover that Mr. Burns' house is connected to the plant<br /> *The unofficial Simpsons Archive website (http://www.snpp.com/) is named after the power plant.<br /> *'''Continuity Series Goof: '''In [[The Blunder Years]], the nuclear power plant had opened when Homer, Lenny and Carl were 10. However in [[The Way We Was]], Homer is in his teens when the power plant opened. And in &quot;[[Homer's Enemy]], Lenny says that Homer got the job when he came the day the nuclear power plant opened.<br /> *Sector 7G has the same alphanumeric code as the production code of [[season 1]], which was 7GXX.<br /> <br /> == Appearances ==<br /> {{Incomplete}}<br /> {{Scroll|<br /> *{{ep|Simpsons Roasting on an Open Fire}}<br /> *{{ep|Homer's Odyssey}}<br /> *{{ep|There's No Disgrace Like Home}}<br /> *{{ep|Life on the Fast Lane}}<br /> *{{ep|Homer's Night Out}}<br /> *{{ep|Krusty Gets Busted}}<br /> *{{ep|Simpson And Delilah}}<br /> *{{ep|Two Cars in Every Garage and Three Eyes on Every Fish}}<br /> *{{ep|Bart Gets Hit by a Car}}<br /> *{{ep|Homer vs. Lisa and the 8th Commandment}}<br /> *{{ep|Bart's Dog Gets An F}}<br /> *{{ep|Brush with Greatness}}<br /> *{{ep|Blood Feud}}<br /> *{{ep|Stark Raving Dad}}<br /> *{{ep|When Flanders Failed}}<br /> *{{ep|Bart the Murderer}}<br /> *{{ep|Homer Defined}}<br /> *{{THOH|Treehouse of Horror II}}<br /> *{{ep|Lisa's Pony}}<br /> *{{ep|Burns Verkaufen der Kraftwerk}}<br /> *{{ep|Homer at the Bat}}<br /> *{{ep|Brother, Can You Spare Two Dimes?}}<br /> *{{ep|Marge Gets a Job}}<br /> *{{ep|Homer's Triple Bypass}}<br /> *{{ep|Marge vs. the Monorail}}<br /> *{{ep|Duffless}}<br /> *{{ep|Last Exit to Springfield}}<br /> *{{ep|Rosebud}}<br /> *{{ep|Homer Goes to College}}<br /> *{{THOH|Treehouse of Horror IV}}<br /> *{{ep|The Last Temptation of Homer}}<br /> *{{ep|Deep Space Homer}}<br /> *{{ep|Burns' Heir}}<br /> *{{ep|Lady Bouvier's Lover}}<br /> *{{ep|Homer Badman}}<br /> *{{ep|Homer the Great}}<br /> *{{ep|And Maggie Makes Three}}<br /> *{{ep|Homie the Clown}}<br /> *{{ep|A Star is Burns}}<br /> *{{ep|Lisa's Wedding}}<br /> *{{ep|Who Shot Mr. Burns?

<p>Simpsonia Girl: </p> <hr /> <div>{{Tab}}<br /> {{Comics<br /> |title= O Bart, Where Art Thou?<br /> |image=[[File:O Bart, Where Art Thou.png|250px]]<br /> |released=August [[2002]]<br /> |series=[[Bart Simpson Comics]]<br /> |written by=[[Earl Kress]]<br /> }}<br /> <br /> '''''O Bart, Where Art Thou?''''' is a ''[[Bart Simpson (comic book series)|Bart Simpson Comics]]'' story that appears in [[Bart Simpson 9]]. The comic later got reprinted in the [[Big Bratty Book of Bart Simpson]].<br /> <br /> == Plot ==<br /> [[Bart]] injures his head while riding his scooter off the roof of his house and is forced to go to the hospital. As [[Dr. Hibbert]] shaves Bart's head to apply the stitches, he notices that Bart has birthmark shaped like [[Ned Flanders]] under his hair. Hibbert explains to the Simpsons that the &quot;Flanders' birthmark&quot; is shared by Ned and his son [[Todd]]. [[Rod]] however, does not have said birthmark. [[Homer]] rashly comes to the conclusion that Bart and Rod were switched at birth and storms off to Ned's house to trade sons. <br /> <br /> Back home, [[Marge]] tells Homer that they should get a DNA test first, but Homer stops her, saying that they're getting the better end of this deal. Ned compares his birthmark to Bart's showing that they are a match. [[Lisa]] then asks where Todd's birthmark is, and Ned replies that it's on his &quot;tushie&quot;. After Bart and Homer have a good laugh, both boys reluctantly trade homes, but find it difficult to fit into their new lifestyle. While eating dinner, Rod attempts to pray at the table, but is strangled by Homer when Rod won't tell him what he's praying for. [[Lisa]] then takes Rod away to watch TV, but this only bores Rod. He suggests that they could do some home work, to which Lisa wholeheartedly agrees, stating that if they start now they could finish a weeks worth of homework in one night. <br /> <br /> Bart also has problems while staying at Ned's, and finds that he actually misses being strangled by Homer. He is irritated by all of Ned's little house rules, such as not being able to stay up past 7:00 p.m.. Bart becomes disappointed because this means he can't watch [[Krusty the Clown]]. Ned compromises and says that he and Todd can watch 15 minutes of ''[[Scared Straight to Heaven]]''. Bart declines the offer, so Ned tells him that he might as well go for his bath and then get into bed. Bart reluctantly does as he's told, but only bothers to wash his face. Ned asks Bart if he had scrubbed behind his ears and, when Bart says no, proceeds to do it himself. While wetting and soaping up Bart's head, Ned discovers that Bart's supposed &quot;birthmark&quot; was in fact merely a wad of dried up bubble gum that had gotten stuck on Bart's head.<br /> <br /> With the issue resolved, each child returns to their respective families. The next night, Bart comments that he should get a tattoo of Homer on his rump so that Homer will never be able to get rid of him. Homer then strangles Bart, who remarks that it's great to be home again. <br /> <br /> [[Category:Bart Simpson comics stories]]</div>

He holds a master's degree in folklore and mythology (he translated ''The Lord of the Rings'' into Klingon as part of his thesis).&lt;ref&gt;This is a reference to an organization called the Klingon Language Institute who took the time to translate ''Hamlet'' into Klingon after hearing the line &quot;You haven't experienced Shakespeare until you've read him in the original Klingon&quot; in ''Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country''.&lt;/ref&gt; He exhibits geeky behaviour to an extraordinary and deliberately unrealistic degree, and often also makes references to obscure subjects or internet culture. His catchphrase is the declaration,&quot;Worst... (episode)... ever&quot;. He states that he is a 45 year-old virgin who lives with his mother.&lt;ref&gt;&quot;[[Mayored to the Mob]]&quot;&lt;/ref&gt; His obesity is referenced in ''[[The Simpsons: Hit &amp; Run]]'', where he can be used as a driver. One of his replies is that he might as well pick the player up, since he can't fit into his office chair anymore.<br /> <br /> Appropriate to his name, Comic Book Guy is obsessed with comic books, pop culture and science fiction. Comic Book Guy has a bumper sticker that reads &quot;My Other Car Is The Millennium Falcon,&quot; given to him by a Harrison Ford lookalike. The license plate on his AMC Gremlin is NCC-1701, the registry number of ''Star Trek's'' ''USS Enterprise''. The contents of his display case include, among other oddities, a photo of Sean Connery signed by Roger Moore and a very rare ''Mary Worth'' in which she advised a friend to commit suicide. He also owns a T-shirt that says &quot;C:/DOS C:/DOS/RUN RUN/DOS/RUN&quot; (Notice the incorrect usage of the forward slash. DOS directories are listed with a backslash, so it would be &quot;C:\DOS C:\DOS\RUN RUN\DOS\RUN&quot;). He is a member of the Springfield branch of [[Mensa International|Mensa]], along with [[Seymour Skinner|Principal Skinner]], [[Julius Hibbert|Dr. Hibbert]], [[Lisa Simpson]], [[Professor Frink]], and [[Lindsey Naegle]].<br /> <br /> === Early life ===<br /> Comic Book Guy lived in his parents basement in the 1980s. He had a dog named Chewbacca (currently deceased). He also went to fat camp.&lt;ref&gt;''[[Comic Book Guy's Book of Pop Culture]]''&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> === The Android's Dungeon ===<br /> Comic Book Guy is the owner of The [[Android's Dungeon]], a local comic book store. Many of the comics and toys he sells are of very poor-quality, and often sell for very high prices. His store is his sanctuary, where he holds some level of self-esteem, imperiously lording over pre-teen kids, like [[Bart Simpson]] and [[Milhouse Van Houten]], using a heavily sarcastic tone. When he was the target of mockery while trying to return the Ultimate Belt, he sighed, &quot;I must get back to my comic book store, where I ''dispense'' the insults rather than ''absorb'' them&quot;. His store contains a section full of illegal videos (which include Mr. Rogers drunk, ''Alien Autopsy'', ''Illegal Alien Autopsy'', a top secret American nuclear war strategy session, a &quot;good version&quot; of ''The Godfather Part III'', [[Kent Brockman]] picking his nose, and [[Ned Flanders]] in a police informant video, wherein he claims that [[Homer Simpson|Homer]] released a radioactive ape in his house [Although, according to Bart, Homer only let the Ape into the house because the Ape tricked Homer, and&amp;nbsp;not out of malicious intent]. He later was arrested and had his store shut down temporarily because of this.). He once had to give up the Ultimate Belt (which he won as a door prize at a Star Trek Convention) because, as he pointed out, &quot;the average Trekker has no use for a medium-sized belt&quot;.<br /> [[File:Androidsdungeon.jpg|thumb|right|Comic Book Guy's store]]<br /> ==== Similar stores ====<br /> In North Haverbrook there is a comic book shop named &quot;Mylar Baggins&quot; and the proprietor looks very similar to Comic Book Guy with the exception that his skin and hair are slightly darker. He also has a deep-rooted rivalry with a store similar to his: &quot;Frodo's of Shelbyville&quot;. These shops could have had the same owner, as both rival store names refer to The Lord of the Rings character Frodo Baggins. During the Trappuccino crisis, Comic Book Guy says that his obsessive comic book collecting is a &quot;life well spent&quot;.&lt;ref&gt;''[[The Simpsons Movie]]''&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> === Brief Fame ===<br /> In Homer the Whopper, Comic Book Guy created the comic book series Everyman. He apparently created 278 issues, including the controversial issue with the death of Marmaduke. However, he was reluctant to self-publish them initially because he feared that he'd be mocked by the internet community for his comics. While trying to exhasperate Comic Book Guy by feigning complete ignorance on the history of Spiderman, Bart and Milhouse stumbled upon a draft of an issue of Everyman that he was working on. Comic Book Guy then learned that Bart and Milhouse actually liked the comic, and after a bit of convincing, he decided to self-publish. The comic's popularity started to soar as a result, with a movie project starting for the Summer Market. Some movie executives requested to make Everyman into a movie. Comic Book Guy is reluctant to allow them to work with the movie, especially as the same movie industry apparently ruined the Stratego movie for him. He eventually relents, but only under the condition that he picks the person who will portray Everyman. When they refused that condition, he opened the door to the store, implying that he wanted them to leave, until they agreed to that condition, commenting that being a Hollywood Producer is the closest thing to a physical sport that he could ever do. He later explains that he wants a &quot;complete loser&quot; to portray Everyman. He then picks Homer Simpson for the part, after the latter accidentally walked into the store, not realizing it was closed for auditioning. He then spent his time talking to people at his new, hollywood-style house about what it is like to be a producer, and adopting a Cambodian Orphan named Prius. However, when the movie was going overbudget and Homer ended up gaining an eating disorder due to his fitness coach abandoning him for Turtle (to the extent that he couldn't even get out of his trailer without it being sawed off), he tried to end production of the film, but ended up being thrown out by security into a dumpster with disgraced executives. He later ended up sacrificing any chance at another Everyman movie being made by voicing his honest opinion that the Everyman movie was the worst movie ever. It is unknown if he still worked on his comics after this.<br /> <br /> === Relationships ===<br /> Comic Book Guy was once married—in an online role-playing game. He and his Internet wife contemplated having children, but that would have severely drained his power crystals. He was shown paired with a blond woman (asking if she enjoyed comic books) during a mass-marriage that occurred when a cult took over Springfield, and presumably the two were wed in the mass ceremony.&lt;ref&gt;&quot;[[The Joy of Sect]]&quot;&lt;/ref&gt; While part of an intellectual [[wiktionary:junta|junta]] that [[They Saved Lisa's Brain|briefly ran Springfield]], he proposed plans to limit breeding to once every seven years (a reference to the Vulcan blood fever of mating, called Pon Farr), commenting that this would mean much less breeding for most, but for him, &quot;much, much more&quot;. He was a virgin well into his forties when he became romantically involved with [[Principal Skinner]]'s mother [[Agnes Skinner|Agnes]]. ([[Clancy Wiggum|Chief Wiggum]] was notably repulsed when he and his officers stumbled upon the couple &quot;in the act&quot;.) He later dated [[Edna Krabappel]] and was shown with the superman logo tattooed on his upper right buttock (which is interesting, as in the Comic Book Guy's Book of Pop Culture, he states that he hates Superman).<br /> <br /> == Non-canon ==<br /> {{Noncanon}}<br /> ===The Simpsons Game===<br /> Comic Book Guy appears throughout the entire game to point out various videogame cliches that the player can unlock by performing certain actions. He also appears as one of the contestants in the Duff Ultimate Eating Challenge in the level [[Around the World in 80 Bites]], and in the form of a gang of sumo wrestlers in [[Big Super Happy Fun Fun Game]].<br /> <br /> == Behind the Laughter ==<br /> Comic Book Guy was partly inspired by a clerk at the Los Angeles Amok book shop who often &quot;[sat] on the high stool, kind of lording over the store with that supercilious attitude and eating behind the counter a big Styrofoam containerful of fried clams with a lot of tartare sauce.&quot; [[Matt Groening]] noted that: &quot;I can't tell you how many times people have come up to me and said, 'I know who you based that comic book guy on. It's that comic-book guy right down the block.' And I have to tell them, &quot;No, it's ''every'' comic-bookstore guy in America.&quot;<br /> Hank Azaria based Comic Book Guy's voice on a student who went by the name &quot;F&quot;, and lived in the room next door at his college. Azaria also &quot;loves that the character is an adult who argues with kids as if they're his peers.&quot;<br /> <br /> A long-running gag on the show was never to reveal the character's name, with other characters referring to him as &quot;Comic Book Guy&quot;. Finally, in the February 6, 2005 episode, &quot;[[Homer and Ned's Hail Mary Pass]],&quot; Comic Book Guy nonchalantly told [[Ned Flanders]], &quot;My name is Jeff Albertson, but everyone calls me 'Comic Book Guy'.&quot; [[Showrunner]] [[Al Jean]] remarked, &quot;That was specifically done to make people really mad. We just tried to pick a generic name. It was also the Super Bowl show, so we did it so the most people possible would see it.&quot; Groening stated that he had originally intended him to be called Louis Lane and be &quot;obsessed and tormented by&quot; Lois Lane, but was out of the room when the writers named him.<br /> [[File:Comic Book Guy's Book of Pop Culture.jpg|thumb|Comic Book Guy's Book of Pop Culture]]<br /> The comic book guy has also been seen in quite a few episodes but he has had very few episodes where he is a major character. He is rarely seen outside The Android's Dungeon store and most of his interactions are with [[Bart Simpson]]. The comic book guy wasn't seen very often early in the series of the show and has not been seen very much in the 19th season.<br /> <br /> === Trivia ===<br /> *Comic Book Guy has an IQ of 170.<br /> <br /> === Merchandising ===<br /> Even though Comic Book Guy is just a recurring character, he still has some merchandise such as ''Comic Book Guy's Book of Pop Culture''. He also appears on the cover of the twelfth season DVD.<br /> <br /> == Appearances ==<br /> {{Incomplete}}<br /> {{scroll|<br /> *{{ep|Three Men and a Comic Book}}<br /> *{{ep|I Married Marge}}<br /> *{{ep|Radio Bart}}<br /> *{{ep|Lisa the Greek}}<br /> *{{ep|Homer Alone}}<br /> *{{ep|Homer at the Bat}}<br /> *{{ep|The Otto Show}}<br /> *{{ep|Kamp Krusty}}<br /> *{{ep|A Streetcar Named Marge}}<br /> *{{ep|Homer the Heretic}}<br /> *{{ep|Lisa the Beauty Queen}}<br /> *{{THOH|Treehouse of Horror III}}<br /> *{{ep|Itchy &amp; Scratchy: The Movie}}<br /> *{{ep|Marge Gets a Job}}<br /> *{{ep|New Kid on the Block}}<br /> *{{ep|Homer's Triple Bypass}}<br /> *{{ep|Selma's Choice}}<br /> *{{ep|Brother from the Same Planet}}<br /> *{{ep|I Love Lisa}}<br /> *{{ep|So It's Come to This: A Simpsons Clip Show}}<br /> *{{ep|The Front}}<br /> *{{ep|Whacking Day}}<br /> *{{ep|Marge in Chains}}<br /> *{{ep|Homer's Barbershop Quartet}}<br /> *{{ep|Lady Bouvier's Lover}}<br /> *{{ep|Grampa vs. Sexual Inadequacy}}<br /> *{{ep|'Round Springfield}}<br /> *{{ep|Radioactive Man}}<br /> *{{ep|Bart Sells His Soul}}<br /> *{{ep|Marge Be Not Proud}}<br /> *{{ep|Team Homer}}<br /> *{{ep|Bart the Fink}}<br /> *{{ep|Lisa the Iconoclast}}<br /> *{{ep|The Day the Violence Died}}<br /> *{{ep|Much Apu About Nothing}}<br /> *{{ep|22 Short Films About Springfield}}<br /> *{{ep|You Only Move Twice}}<br /> *{{ep|The Homer They Fall}}<br /> *{{ep|Hurricane Neddy}}<br /> *{{ep|The Itchy &amp; Scratchy &amp; Poochie Show}}<br /> *{{ep|My Sister, My Sitter}}<br /> *{{ep|Homer vs. the Eighteenth Amendment}}<br /> *{{ep|The Canine Mutiny}}<br /> *{{ep|Homer vs. Dignity}}<br /> *{{ep|Worst Episode Ever}}<br /> *{{ep|Gump Roast|(mentioned)}}<br /> *{{ep|Homer and Ned's Hail Mary Pass}}<br /> *{{ep|Springfield Up}}<br /> *{{ep|Yokel Chords}}<br /> *{{mov}}<br /> *{{ep|Rednecks and Broomsticks}}<br /> *{{ep|The Fool Monty}}<br /> *{{ep|Moms I'd Like to Forget}}<br /> *{{ep|The Ned-liest Catch}}<br /> *{{ep|The Food Wife}}<br /> *{{ep|The Man in the Blue Flannel Pants|(cog in [[Homer]]'s head)}}<br /> *{{ep|Beware My Cheating Bart}}<br /> *{{ep|Lisa Goes Gaga}}<br /> *{{ep|A Tree Grows in Springfield}}<br /> *{{spec|Homer Shake}}<br /> *{{bon|Radioactive Homer}}<br /> *{{bon|Comics Fan No More}}<br /> *{{bon|The Bids Are All Right}}<br /> *{{bk|Comic Book Guy's Book of Pop Culture}}<br /> *{{bk|Flanders' Book of Faith}}<br /> *{{bk|Simpsons World The Ultimate Episode Guide: Seasons 1-20}}<br /> *{{game|The Simpsons Road Rage}}<br /> *{{game|The Simpsons: Hit &amp; Run}}<br /> *{{game|The Simpsons Game}}<br /> *{{game|The Simpsons: Tapped Out}}<br /> }}<br /> <br /> == References ==<br /> {{images|Comic Book Guy}}<br /> {{Reflist}}<br /> <br /> {{Math Club}}<br /> {{Simpsons World factfiles|2=yes}}<br /> {{Simpsons characters|springfield=yes}}<br /> <br /> [[Category:Characters voiced by Hank Azaria]]<br /> [[Category:Recurring characters]]<br /> [[Category:Adults]]<br /> [[Category:Business proprietors]]<br /> [[Category:Characters introduced in season 2]]</div>

<p>Simpsonia Girl: /* History */</p> <hr /> <div>[[File:Lance Murdock's Suicycle.png|250px|thumb]]<br /> '''Lance Murdock's Suicycle''' is a stunt number by [[Lance Murdock]] in [[Las Vegas]].<br /> <br /> == History ==<br /> {{Engrish}}<br /> In Lance Murdock's Suicycle, [[Lance Murdock]] jumps from a ramp to the ground over a ring of fire, ring of ice, dog doo stick and an audience member, while attempting to open a locked safe on his head. When [[Homer]] and [[Ned]] were in [[Las Vegas]], Homer tells Flanders that this is his moment to be exciting but when the show starts, Ned says he's not going to risk his life like a bozo. So Homer volunteers as the audience member and ignores all the safety instructions. Unfortunately Homer's stupidity gives Lance some internal injuries. Homer gets off the ramp and goes to the casino. <br /> <br /> [[Category:Events]]</div>
