Possibly the worst thing that could have ever happened to the Simpsons character The Comic Book Guy, is about to happen. A rival comic book store is coming to springfield! Yeh Yeh I hear you mutter, but this is actually something of a scoop! Said new comic book store is cool. So cool in fact, that it manages to get the writer of The Watchmen to come along to do a special signing! There it is... Yes folks, Alan Moore is to appear in The Simpsons. The legendary writer of The Watchmen and V for Vendetta is apparently a big fan of the simpsons, and jumped at the chance to appear in the show, which came about through a chance meeting between producers of the hit comedy cartoon and Moore's fiance. Mr Moore said: "Mel was in America promoting our new book The Lost Girls and one of the Simpsons producers spoke to her and asked if I would be in the show.
"She said: 'Why don't you give him a ring he's very approachable'. "I was happy to do it. I'm a big fan of The Simpsons." CBR had the news, and there's a little more on the Northants News site
