Introducing a new character is something we haven’t done before, so we approached the situation with the kind of prudence you’d expect from two webcomic pioneers. We compiled MOUNTAINS of data from google analytics, site comments, and quotes from homeless people that scream at us on our way to the bag and bored offices. From all of this, we gleaned a few key points that helped us make informed decisions on what shape the ‘FNG’ would take:
1.He should be a robot
2. Asian Porn.
Aaaaaaaand that’s about it. Hmm. On second thought, it appears as if our criteria for perfecting Eric’s character may be a little skewed. Oh well. As long as he’s under warranty, and doesn’t get Cyborg-spooge on everything, I guess we can keep him.
