I look forward to drawing Allan smiling in this comic.
Allan is like a skinny version of Bob’s grandfather, but Steven clearly takes after his own mother. Well, he has his dad’s height and bulk, I guess, but the skin tone and features are his mom’s.
That would make them half-brothers. Step-brothers are not related… except for when their parents are married later in life after the first marriages’ kids have been produced. So, step-brothers are related “by marriage”.
Really loving the contrast between characters here. Allan is the smaller, more formal, more punctual type while Steve is the bigger, more laid back kind of guy.
This comic is ultimately gonna make us feel like real assholes for cracking jokes about Bob’s social ineptitude, isn’t it?
“I get it, okay? I’ll never be like you, or like granddad!”
“No, Bob. No. I’m disappointed…”
(closeup on Bob’s reaction to his father’s words)
“…that you tried.”
(closeup of Bob’s eyes starting to well up)
(emotionally charged rendition of Hans Zimmer’s Time as Steven Lee Crossroads XXXIX closes his eyes for the last time)
Allan is actually pretty interesting; I’m really loving the sibling relationship for some reason.
I’m so glad! Surprised nobody’s asked HOW and or WHY are they related yet.
I get the impression that they’re step-brothers?
You’re right on. Different moms.

Boy howdy, are they ever extremely different people.

my verbatim response to this was “hahaha what the fuck”. A+
Am I the only one who thinks Allan looks like the villain from Indiana Jones: Raiders of the Lost Ark
