Most Tragic Comic Book Death Since Superman and Captain America

In the 2007 The Simpsons movie, the Comic Book Guy said, "I've spent my entire life doing nothing but collecting comic books... and now there's only time to say... LIFE WELL SPENT!"  Greater words have never been spoken!

Well it's 2010 and according to Bongo Comics' August solicitations, "The Simpsons" portly supporting cast member Comic Book Guy will meet his maker in the pages of "Comic Book Guy: The Comic Book" #2 with a funeral eulogized by none other than Stan "The Man" Lee.

As our friends at ComicsAlliance said, "Given that the death will take place in a Bongo comic rather than say, 'The Simpsons on FOX, makes it's quite likely that Springfield's favorite purveyor of sequential art will be reborn by the issue's end. But who knows? Maybe Comic Book Guy truly will have the, "Worst. Funeral. Ever."

Gfest prays for his Resurrection, perhaps as the next White Lantern.
