Chen, Wei-Huan (February 16, 2018). " 'SpongeBob' musical underscores nautical nonsense of art vs. entertainment". Houston Chronicle. Originally, Stephen Hillenburg authored an educational comic book in 1989, called The Intertidal Zone, while he worked as a teacher of marine science at the Ocean Institute in Dana Point, California. This comic book depicted ocean life through anthropomorphic sea creatures, as the character of Bob the Sponge, a natural sponge with sunglasses who would become the first prototype of SpongeBob SquarePants. The universe of the SpongeBob SquarePants series is therefore directly inspired by The Intertidal Zone. As it turned out, Hillenburg's time as a marine biologist also tied into the world of comic books, which led to the creation of SpongeBob Squarepants! Gruenwedel, Erik (2020-03-05).
