Comic Book Guy is a very obese, socially incompetent, unshaven, cruel man who is perhaps best known for his sarcastic quips. He holds a master's degree in folklore and mythology (he translated ''The Lord of the Rings'' into Klingon as part of his thesis). 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,"Worst... (episode)... ever". He states that he is a 45 year-old virgin who lives with his mother. His obesity is referenced in ''[[The Simpsons: Hit & 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.

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, "I must get back to my comic book store, where I ''dispense'' the insults rather than ''absorb'' them"...

He gave a speech where he talked about the policies he helped implement as vice president, including sending three mathletes to the state finals, and germinating all the tenth graders lima beans. Meanwhile, Homer fumbled his speech and was a laughing stock to the whole school. When the time to actually vote for the class president came along, the students decided that it would be funny to vote for Homer as a joke and laugh at him all through high school, and at every reunion.
