The headvoices (plus Mr. Samsa!!!)

Doughboys

So, in the first issue there's only one doughboy and it's D-boy. But he looks a bit different from how he looks for the rest of the series. He has long, black sleeves that would be given to Mr. Eff instead in the next issue. I'm not sure if this means that issue 1 takes place before Eff existed (in the bios it says that D-boy is two years older) or what.

For most of the series, D-boy has a white hat with columns of skulls and a black brim. It also has a little creepy face on it. I think this face was a way Jhonen used to sign his initials. He has 'FUCK' on his front, a black scarf, and three thin stripes on his arms with black gloves. He has spiral eyes with tears coming down, his nose has a dot and four squiggles, and his mouth is white with a black tongue.

Though the back cover of issue 2 shows a pile of skulls instead of individual towers.

Eff has a black hat with little ghosts and the brim has vertical stripes. His scarf is white and his front has a stripe and a box that says 'Z?'. He also took the sleeves D-boy had at first. His eyes are blank with a thick outline, arrows pointing away from the face and they're surrounded by squiggles or spikes, like a cartoon sun. He seems to have a pig nose and his mouth has a bunch of lines and may have arrows at the ends. His mouth is black with a white tongue. They both have black feet or shoes or whatever.

They also both have flat backs that are painted. D-boy has a spiral behind his head and Eff has... an arrow?? That would make sense.

When we do see them in color we see that Mr. Eff has purple on his hat and red eyes and scarf. D-boy seems to just be black and white. It seems the same at the end of I Feel Sick except the skulls on D-boy hat are black now. In the recent print Jhonen has changed quite a few things. The biggest thing is that D-boy now has glowing blue eyes to match Eff's red ones. Their hats are also very different. Now D-boy's has one big white skull as the top and Eff has a black skull with the teeth coming all the way down. D-boy has a little frowny face on the brim and Eff has a little smiley face. He also doesn't have the stripes anymore. Eff's front and gloves seem to be a dark green now (or it could just be the lighting or something). D-boy now has just two thicker stripes on his arms and has two squiggles on his nose and now it kind of looks like a mustache.

Reverend MEAT and Mr. Samsa

It looks like Meat and Mr. Samsa were planned to also be doughboys originally. One was named Senor Bondage and it says "the urge to give in to the mentality of being a physical being. Driven by organic whim." This sounds exactly like Meat. The other doughboy, Nil, which means 'nothing', says "The Little Creatures That Live Inside Us--Fashioned by dough or clay, from the things we hope no one can ever see." Not completely sure what that means, but Mr. Samsa IS a little creature.

Anyway, I think Jhonen changed it because he realized it would be really redundant if Johnny came back and once again had two doughboys talking to him. It would feel like nothing had changed. It was an extra good decision to have Mr. Samsa not even be a headvoice, but something Johnny could project his desire on to. Instead of being dragged back and forth by two opposing voices, it's Johnny himself and his desire to be emotionless like Mr. Samsa (which isn't true. bugs have lots of little bug emotions) vs Meat and his desire for Johnny to give in to all of his emotions. This is also shown in the fact that he doesn't trust Meat at all when he thought of the doughboys as his friends.

Reverend MEAT doesn't get a chance to change much. He's able to move around to some extent right away, making his burger disappear and making his eyes blank, like Eff. They also have stitch marks going up from them. His shirt can have different words on it, like Johnny's shirts, and he has sharp teeth and overalls. In I Feel Sick we see that he has red eyes, but then they get changed to a glowing pink. The pattern on his overall might be gone now and they might be red, but it's hard to tell.

Mr. Samsa is an immortal roach (or a series of roaches) and he stays that way. He hasn't shown up in group shots of the headvoices because he doesn't talk and is just a little bug who likes candycorn.

Nailbunny

Nailbunny hasn't changed at all aside from the one big change that happened in the comics. He was a dead bunny with a huge nail in him, but Eff rips his head off and now he's just a floating bunny head. He's blue and can fit on an ice cream cone.

Fetus in a Jar

It had one line in issue one where it distracted Johnny from killing himself by telling him that a funny commercial was on. Usually I would assume it's just some Early Installment Weirdness, but it showed up in a recent print with the other headvoices, so I guess it's canon. Now's it's in some other fluid-filled container and it looks like it was some oddity Johnny bought at a store or something rather than he himself finding a fetus somehow and just putting it in a jar.

Do you ever think about the fact that canonically Jimmy's been stalking Johnny for two years at minimum?

It's stated that he started following Johnny around following his wacky-induced massacre at the Taco Hell way back in Issue #1, where only Psychodoughboy appears without his manic-coded profanity named counterpart. Well, in the Director's Cut it's stated that Mr. Eff actually formed two years after D-Boy, which implies a pretty significant time gap between Issue #1 and Issue #2, even if subsequent issues occur over a smaller timeframe.

So, yeah, it's pretty safe to say no matter how you construct the timeline of JTHM in your head that he's been stalking Johnny for a very long time, and isn't that kind of crazy to think about? I wonder if his total obsession over and emulation of Johnny started off strong right out the gate, or whether it was a slow-burn thing that gradually consumed his entire identity. I'm partial to the idea that he doesn't dress like Johnny 24/7 exactly even if he's obviously inspired by his fashion sense, but I like playing up the "emulation" aspect to his character because I think it's silly. How do you think he felt watching Devi escape, or watching Johnny disembowel all of his dates in general? How do you think he felt being there everytime Johnny had a breakdown, heard a joke and laughed to himself, cleaned his room, drew a comic? Can you imagine the kind of false closeness that'd instill into him, how that warped his perception of humanity over time? Geez Louise.

Got more of the Johnny charms.

These ones are a bit closer to what I was going for and the hair's more blue.

If you guys want more of the other one just let me know.

[borrelia]

lets all reread jthm. iwe love violence and killing amd #problematic protagonists who suck. and women, bc devi and trish(? sorry women i forgot) are there and they r so great characters. we love tiny crowded paneling <- huge reference on how i conceive of comics. we love jokes about head splosions and brutal funny violence against ppl who are mildly inconvemiencing and brutal ANGRY violence against sexual predators. and we love nail bunny and the d-boys.

Nuzlocke Comic Recommendation List

Fire Red: Hard Mode The sequel to the OG. While the Ruby run is where it all began, the Fire Red playthrough is what set the standard for the original cartoonist going forward and influenced more than a little of the tone of the fancomics. Warning for humor typical of 4chan and somethingawful in 2011, which diminishes as the cartoon gets better and the guy learns how to make real jokes.

Hale's Emerald Nuzlocke Run Another one loaded with humor from 4chan and somethingawful. Is this good? Fuck no. Are the constant referential jokes funny? Like 20% of the time they might be. This comic however earns points for actually having consistent characterization and quality from beginning to end, as well as a really good handle on tone. Pretty edgy-- if you grew up on JTHM and Homestuck, this is probably a worthwhile bite for you; you'll have the antibodies to tolerate the bullshit.

Kynim's Tales of Sinnoh and Myths of Unova

Lore-heavy, with advanced art by someone who knows what she's doing. These are both fairly transformative and are very interested in not just documenting an adventure but telling a story. These are the comics people think of when they think of "nuzlocke comic". As far as I remember there are a few offcolor jokes but not many, and the tone remains fairly light-- there's not so much grimdark as there is gravitas.

A Petty Nuzlocke Run If you really like Pokemon having distinct personalities and a flexible, story-lite Nuzlocke comic, this one is for you. These take on the already Excuse Plot games of LG and HG, and they give Petty the flexibility to give her own spin on it while saving room to characterize her trainer and her team. Heart Gold is unfinished.

Jet's Black Nuzlocke Run

This is about as lighthearted as a story with Pokemon permadeath can be without going into full crack. A truly engaging retelling of Pokemon Black with a lovable protagonist and a really good depiction of N, if that's something you care about. Really feels like it follows in the footsteps of Myths of Unova in terms of tone and what it sets out to do but is otherwise incomparable in voice and art.

Godless Lands

A Truly Transformative work, told from the perspective of Pokemon gijinkas performing ritual combat in the name of their faith as a part of a pilgrimage. Drawn by a lesbian, this has a cast of exactly one (1) boy and a dark story that occasionally dips into religious horror. If you want real honest-to-Sappho capital-d Dykes having crises of mortality, this is the story for you. Unfinished.

Pouch Creatures Dark Difficult Version

A deceptive art style. Despite the memey look and the constant levity, this is as much of a love letter to Pokemon Black as anything. The villains are still a threat, the arcs of the rivals are still given weight and resonance, and our Protagonist cannot die and so goes on a vigilante crusade against Team Plasma, to bloody ends.
