Jimmy Jone

Even though he’s a straight-A student, there’s one thing Jimmy can’t
figure out: why nobody’s as bothered about his brain as he is. Jimmy’s
always been insecure about himself, an opinion he’s revising with each
friend–and enemy–he makes.

Stuart Hunnicutt

Stuart only leaves his computer long enough for food, class, or
keeping his pet monster from destroying West Campus. It’s safer that
way–in the real world, he typically screws stuff up.

First appearance: Issue 3

Most recent appearance: Issue 60

Ron Lewis

A Geek-of-All-Trades, Ron is ever ready with a joke, plan, or X-Men
quote. Typically becomes friends with just about anybody, but he’s still
not entirely sure what to think of his girlfriend.

Most recent appearance: Issue 60

Diana Rosen

One of the rare Jews not trying to take over the whole world, Diana’s
political aspirations only go as high as student body president. Dating
Jimmy, and loving every minute of it. Except that one minute when she
threw up.

Jenny Pettijohn

Jenny is an art major who’s found her muse, and his name is Ron. A
member of E.M.A.S.C.U.L.A.T.E., Jenny is deeply afraid of the way she
interacts with men. Neurotic? Victim of childhood trauma? Nah, she’s an
art student. They’re just weird.

Wendell

The product of an experiment gone wrong involving a chinchilla and a
Stretch Armstrong doll, Wendell is usually seen with his owner, Stuart.
Wendell’s appetite is nigh insatiable. Feed him quick — but please don’t
scratch his chin!

Chloe Watterson

Chloe crashes on Jimmy’s couch whenever she needs to dry out from a
night of hard drinking. So, yeah, everyday. Always with a cold one in
hand, she’s as likely to get frostbite in her fingers as she is fatal
damage in her liver.

Future Stuart

Self-fulfilling prophecy incarnate…from the future! Future Stuart is
perpetually having to clean up his own messes from three years ago. Your
teachers weren’t kidding about that one.

Most recent appearance: Issue 44

Dr. Edwin G. Hapford

He wants to pick Jimmy’s brain…with a pick! Aaaah! P.S. He’s green and British (limey?).

First appearance: Issue 9

Most recent appearance: Issue 53

Priscilla Glebe

Yeah, you’ve only seen her once or twice, but Future Stuart said
they’ll date later, so…that makes her important? Priscilla is the only
female Mad Science student at CSU. She is often seen with her monster,
Bernice.

something.

Sappho Stylwulle

Sappho Stylwulle is the founding member of E.M.A.S.C.U.L.A.T.E.
(Empowering Minds And Spirits on Campus Until we Lower the Amount of
Testosterone Everywhere). You’ll usually find her dragging along her two
compatriots–oh, ahem–commatriarchs, Kiki and Marlene, waving around
something sharp, and yelling about overgrown clitorides.

The Reasoner

AKA Linus Bernal, assistant professor of Biophysics at East Central
University. Became the Reasoner after discovering that he can erase
phenomena from existence by explaining how they cannot function
scientifically.

First appearance: Issue 36

Most recent appearance: Issue 51

Kiki Lassiter

Kiki is often conflicted about the role she plays in Sappho’s schemes. But she hangs in there! What a pathetic little trooper!

First appearance: Issue 11

Most recent appearance: Issue 57

Marlene Mannfresser

Another of Sappho’s cronies. Marlene wonders what has happened to her beloved Joe (answer: he’s chained up real good).

Darryl Blake

And Jimmy was worried that freaks couldn’t get girls! At CSU, seniors
don’t take all the hot girls, Darryl does. He takes the rest of them,
too. Former roommate of Ron Lewis.

It’s-a Antonio! What’s more can we said?

Curtis Haywood

Haywood is a small person who was almost the subject of one of
Stuart’s mad science experiments. Stuart learned that midgets are
people; Haywood learned not to answer job postings on Craigslist.

Alvin Howell

Mad Science doctoral student and genetically stranded. When he transforms back to normal, he’ll get his degree.

First appearance: Issue 9

Most recent appearance: Issue 42

Dr. Grace Roundtree

Dr. Grace Roundtree is the only female Mad Science professor at CSU.
Her hope is to break through the silicon dioxide ceiling and get out of
the Homarus barrel. I think this is such a great concept that she
deserves a place on the cast page, even though you’ve only seen her,
what, twice?
