@glitchdx@clark True is *often* in the wrong. In earlier comics, especially, when he is not as huge and rotund and not as physically violent, he's often just yelling mean and petty things. It took time for him to evolve into the spherical angel of righteous vengeance we love.
@Rolando@truecomics you can mostly predict how much of a good guy Everett is going to be by how closely his form approximates a perfect sphere. Early Everett was more normal human shaped and was just a dick. This is a highly spherical good guy Everett!
@Rolando Everett in full "Man of the People" mode. There was another one along the same line where a pastor recognized a rich deacon for donating for foreign missions and Everett yelled that the money would be better spent fixing up the tenements he owned which were in such bad shape they were a danger to the inhabitants
@Rolando This is the second one I've seen where True is mortified by the memory of his lovey dovey talk towards Mrs True in their youth.
In the other one he scoffs at a woman talking to a baby in a sugary cootchy-coo kind of way, and Mrs True points out that's exactly how he used to talk to her when they were courting.
Oh Everett. You will never live down your lovey dovey ways as a youthful swain
@MeDuViNoX@Rolando he's not morbidly obese, he's approaching deadly geometric perfection. Like a cannonball, or a sphere of red-hot nickel, or the Demon Core.
@Rhynoplaz still, on a scale from "punishing someone for cruelty to animals" (not petty at all) to "punishing someone for wearing a hat crooked" (highly petty) I'd say that this is far closer to the "wearing a hat crooked" end of the scale.
(Yes, Everett once walloped a guy for wearing a hat at an excessively jaunty angle)
@grrgyle@thejoker954 Everett True gives no warning and no quarter. He can't be bargained with. He can't be reasoned with. He doesn't feel pity, or remorse, or fear!* And he absolutely will not stop till his victim has been punished in a manner wildly disproportionate to their crime!
@clark MURDER HIM EVERETT
@glitchdx all good, and I think the ones that get posted online tend to favor the ones where we're on his side.

@brbposting @Rolando Everett is one of those characters where I can hear his voice absolutely clearly

@Rolando sweet Ev image there
@Rolando I hadn't seen that one!
@verity_kindle @AllNewTypeFace Women achieving property-rights equality with men was a gradual process but well underway by Everett's time. https://www.thoughtco.com/property-rights-of-women-3529578

@Rolando @clark he is canonically married
@clark early Everett was just a dick.

@thejoker954 @samus12345 the rest of us are just not seeing what you're seeing, I guess
@Rolando Pettiness level: HIGH

* except fear of Mrs. True
@thejoker954 OK
@thejoker954 @I_Has_A_Hat whoever happens to be getting on the train deserves to be able to get on without climbing over this douchebag.
