Comic Book A comic book is a magazine or book containing the sequential art form of comics. Comic books are often called comics, especially in the U.K.. Although the term implies otherwise, the subject matter in comic books is not necessarily humorous, nor does it refer to short comic strips (like Peanuts or Dilbert). In fact, the seriousness of the medium varies widely.
Comic Book Collecting Comic book collecting is the result of an interest in antiquity, and nostalgia, as is all collecting by its very nature. The comic book was brought into the pop culture arena by, most notably, Superman and Batman. Since the introduction of Superman there has been a surge in comic characters, books and companies entering into the industry. The industry is dominated by top competitors Marvel Comics (producers of Spider-Man, X-Men, Daredevil, Fantastic Four, The Avengers, and the Hulk) and DC Comics (producers of Superman, Green Lantern, Wonder Woman, The Flash and The Sandman).
Comic Book Guy Jeff Albertson (known as "Comic Book Guy") is the proprietor of "The Android's Dungeon", a local comic book shop, in the fictional television series The Simpsons. Voiced by Hank Azaria, the fat, hirsute, surly character is known for his sarcastic quips to customers. He holds a master's degree in folklore and mythology (He translated "Lord of the Rings" into Klingon as part of his thesis). His catchphrase is the declaration "Worst. _____. ever.", which is usually delivered with slight pauses between each word, and an emphasis on the "ever". His other, but rarely used catchphrase is "Best. ____. ever." Both phrases (along with varations of the quotes) are very popular on Internet message boards. The character of Jeff Albertson is said to be mocking of certain Simpsons fans who would race to the Internet to criticize the producers and writers of an episode and declare such episode to be the "Worst Episode Ever".
