Question: What is Comic Book Guy's Real Name?
Answer: For fourteen years he was known only as the Comic Book Guy. In "Homer And Ned's Hail Mary Pass," aired right after the 2005 Super Bowl, we discover that his real name is Jeff Albertson. According to Al Jean in a quote at TVGuide.com, "We just thought it would be funny to throw it away and give him a normal name after all these years," he says. "There's nobody he's named after. It just sounded like a good name for the guy. We purposely made it as nondescript as possible."
