So, you'd like to know more about NQH? Well, okay. You're wasting your time, not mine. Er, I mean... no. It's good that you read these. This page contains details about the characters in NQH and from even before that, back to how I came about making them. You could find it insightful. Well, if drunk you could.

BALLZO

The receiver of much ridicule, he sucks in a mug, on ice, and in a hat! No one likes, no one wants to. No one even knows what he's suppose to be, nor do they care.
HISTORY: Circa 1993 to 94, I made the biggest mistake in my life: BALLZO, the comic. For fourteen unbearable issues (pages, really), the ugliest thing to ever come from "Suriland" (i had meant 'surreal') reigned. After realizing that it sucked badly, he, and his companions (yes, there was more than just Ballzo) were never seen again until the creator of The Greatest Comic had him in cameo for the purpose of, you guessed it, sucking!

BEANY JOE

No one is really sure if Joe is alright in the head, or anywhere for that matter. No one likes him, he can't seem to die, and he's always lingering there to input some witty, sarcastic, or cynical remark.
HISTORY: BJ was never intended to be in any comic, in truth. He was originally a caricature of myself. It first appeared in a ditty comic I made for the Halloween of 2000, which is where the Halloween NQH actually came from. His full name is Joseph Edward Bean.

CHICKEN/TURKEY

Everyone's (least) favorite meat by-product bent, not on world domination, but being feared by all. In all truth, he's rather powerless and is more pathetic than sad.
HISTORY: C/T first appeared in the 11th issue of the Rubber Man comic. Back then, he did the same thing that he does not, except that he was completely lop-sided and grotesquely ugly. And, yes, he has changed a lot!

CRAZY CHERRY

Super Strawberry's archenemy, this twisted mastermind is the crux in almost any trouble that SS has to face. On top of being quite mad, he is also the despicable fiend who runs Chuck's Bar in Fruit Town.
HISTORY: CC first appeared in the second issue of the SS comic. He stole some Watermelonadon's teeth from a museum and purposefully left behind his card with where he could be found.

DR. BOLT

Rubber Man's archenemy, this mad scientist is a master of the electical with a mechanical arm and the ability to launch shocking blasts from his body.
HISTORY: Dr.B first appeared in the second issue of Rubber Man and had his origin explained in the third. However, his alias, Dr. Rubber, the man who ran the 'Super Bounce Rubber Land' facility Rubber Man worked at, appeared in the first comic, where he created the Super-Duper Bounce Potion, which made any rubber become super bouncy. Then, in the same explosion that created Rubber Man, Dr. Rubber was transformed into Dr. Bolt, where upon he swore vengeance against his former friend because... um... I never really made a reason. Cut me some slack, I was eleven.

I. M. RICH

Whenever any lawyer, agent, or other soldier of the devil is needed (or not, in most cases), I. M. Rich will be there to supply his service, for a steep cost, of course.
HISTORY: IMR was a character in Rubber Man's fifth comic. He magically became RM's agent once he became a superhero and prattled on with boring ways to change his image while random objects would appear on RM's head caused by events symutaneously occuring during the rammble. His full name is Ivan Micheal Rich.

INSANA-BUG

A lunatic who escaped from an insane-asylum, he pretty much wanders about being crazy. He's not really defined as a hero or villian, he's just there. And there in lies the problem...
HISTORY: IB first appeared in Rubber Man #4 as an incompetent foe who wanted to destroy RM just for something to do. That was about all he did in the series.

MAYO GUY

The true-to-heart hero who always helps those in need. ... when he feels like it. While he acts super, he really is nothing more than a big, talking jar of mayonnaise.
HISTORY: MG doesn't really have any background info. He was a just a doodle I made on day when visiting my grandparents in Kentucky. Date of make: circa 1995 to 97.

RUBBER MAN

He's generally who the comic is about. Once a janitor who dreamed of being a superhero, he got his wish. ... only instead of becoming Mop Guy like he so wanted to be, he became Rubber Man. But don't think that minor detail will get in the way of his dream of being the Mopping Crusader!
HISTORY: Rubber Man was created as more of an accident. My two brothers and I would hold 'character making contests' when we where younger, and I, glancing at a cubed rubber eraser, got the idea for RM. He first debuted in January, 1995. His comic ran monthly for one year, stopped, and never could bounce back. That is, until now. The only thing worse than the stories and comedy was the art, which sucked to the nextreme! Hopefully, no one will ever have to see it.

SCHIZO-MAN-7

A psychotic madman who can rear a multitude of differnent personalities: himself, a hero, a villian, a little girl, a mime, a dog, or a murderous psycho. He is prone to change at anytime and often fights amongst himself(es)
HISTORY: S-M-7 never had any appearences before NQH, but he still was there. His name, oddly enough, if false, for he was named after schizophrenia, but his main staple is having multiple personalities, which are really different. He still is schizophrenic by right, but it's just weird that he's like that.

SLIMEBALL

He is who he is, and that's really all. It's hard to describe him, for I'm not even sure what, or who, he is. He's something like a slug, I think. Usually, he'll just be in the background to make responses that the others can turn into humerous jokes.
HISTORY: SB, quite possibly my oldest make, though I can remember quite, has a cloudy past for most all of it has been lost over time. He began as a microscopic piece of grime that experienced the lamest adventures ever. Over the years, only one attempt (never finished, either) was made to bring him back. The reasons are obvious.

SUPER STRAWBERRY

One of the only characters to actually have some sense, he's usually good to aim the others in the right direction. But more or less, he's just a piece of flying fruit.
HISTORY: SS is one of my oldest and most enduring creations, riveled by only one other. Years after his creation, he had a comic with a twelve issue run, complete with over-ugliness, typos, and lack of anything good, at some time between 1993 to 1994. He then bounced back for two more issues, sporting a newer, better look (much like the current), at circa 1997.
