George Khoury is a writer and interviewer in the field of comic books. Khoury's most notable works focus on the UK comic book writer Alan Moore. Khoury is based in New Jersey.

Khoury recalls not being "completely enthralled by comic books until I discovered Star Wars #68 from Marvel Comics." As a 12-year-old Star Wars fan, Khoury was introduced to Marvel Comics, and

...kept coming back for more of these Marvel Comics each week... discover[ing] a goldmine of wonders: Uncanny X-Men by Chris Claremont and Paul Smith, Fantastic Four by John Byrne, Thor by Walter Simonson, Daredevil by Frank Miller and Klaus Janson, The New Defenders by J.M. DeMatteis and Don Perlin, etc... I was enchanted by the excitement-filled stories that I was getting from these Marvel epics – this was my golden age.

Khoury attended Saint Peter's College in New Jersey, where he wrote for the college paper and was a member of the Zeta Eta chapter of the Delta Sigma Pi fraternity. During his senior year, he held an unpaid late 1995 internship at Marvel Comics, with the editor Ralph Macchio and Macchio's assistant Matt Idelson.
