  • In this video we look at the entire timeline of Comic Book Guy. We look at Comic Book Guy's entire life story, his past and future. Taking a look at the Simpsons flashback episodes, as well as the future episodes. I've put this Simpsons characters life in chronological order. From season 1 to The Simpsons season 33.
    We look at Comic Book Guy's real name, and his wife Kumiko Nakamura. We also look at other Simpsons character timelines, like Homer, Marge, Bart, Lisa and Maggie. As well as the other Simpsons characters in Springfield.

    I'm glad that actually did something with Kumiko. Maybe it's because of the new voice actress but the latest episode with her not only made her more rounded, she was funny too

      It was a pretty big deal for the voice actress too since she’s only got a couple other major roles. Her other most notable role being Genshin Impact as Yoimiya.

I’m really glad he got to meet somebody in the end :) getting married etc shouldn’t be the only happy ending characters get I hate that trope but CBG really deserved it considering how lonely he is and they’re a cute couple

I do have a lot of catching up to do though to be fair, and a lot of the lore, for a lot of people, is established earlier on in the series. Well done video, thanks for all your effort!

It's wonderful that he finally found the right woman even though he once mentioned that "It's not money am after or women' i know that's impossible" I can relate to certain things about him. For examples' i often feel loneliness, i love the geek culture, i often rant, and i have no interest of ever being a father. Comic Book Guy is indeed a great character.

    Comic Book Guy bought a Radioactive Man action figure with accidentally-manufactured Wolverine claws (Radioactive X-Gentleman/Wolveractive Man/Radiolverine) and took it on a cruise on the Pacific Princess Leia. When Taika Waititi replaced the doll with his own broken New Zealand one, Comic Book Guy set up a surveillance device to mock the interrogations of several characters, realizing everyone hates him and Kumiko feels like she’s losing him, so he hid in the gym to think of things. When he learns a lesson from one of the holograms, he realizes he’s been a fool, and he throws his irregular Radioactive Man doll overboard so it won’t go in between Comic Book Guy and Kumiko ever again.
