Comic Book Guy's Gremlin is a playable vehicle in The Simpsons: Hit and Run, which can be unlocked after completing the bonus mission in Level 4. For legal reasons, it was called a Kremlin.
In Level 2, the player has to race Comic Book Guy against a nerd to The Java Server in the mission "Vox Nerduli" so he can be the first to register his disgust on the internet in regards to the new McBain film.
In Level 3, the player has to race Comic Book Guy in the mission "Nerd Race Queen" against a nerd (possibly the same nerd from Level 2) to the The Itchy & Scratchy Store to get the last comic of the new controversial issue where the cat and mouse finally kiss and then back to The Android's Dungeon & Baseball Card Shop before the comic deteriorates.
In Level 4, the vehicle can be unlocked by completing his bonus mission.
