The Death of Comic Book Guy

Simpsons Comics Presents: The Death of Comic Book Guy #1

Comic Book Guy, owner of Springfield’s Android’s Dungeon comic store, meets his death in the new mini-series from Titan's Simpsons Comics Presents.

In the three-part story 'Death of Comic Book Guy', our eponymous hero meets a fatal end in an explosion at Springfield's first movie memorabilia auction. Gone but not forgotten, who will inherit the Android’s Dungeon? Who will fill the void left by his sarcastic comments? And who will solve the mystery of his demise?

“Get ready for the most exciting, funniest Simpsons storyline ever!” says Simpsons Comics Titan Editor, Martin Eden “The story features the entire cast of Springfield as they come to terms with the death of a certain big, fat, comic shop owner. It's more epic than a summer blockbuster, and it's got more twists and turns than Homer's driving!”

Comic Book Guy is not the first Simpsons character to die. Maude Flanders fell to her death at a race track, Frank Grimes was electrocuted, and Mr Pinchy the lobster died when his bath water was too hot.

This mini-series runs over three issues of Titan’s Simpsons Comics Presents. The first issue hits newsstands in the UK and Ireland on Thursday 21 July and is available from all good retailers.
