Our Loveable Cast of 1998-Bit Chracters

Brad is a short, fat, girl-hating, comic book collecting nerd.

David is a self-involved nobody with interests in Star Wars and Vaginal Openings.

John is a tubby Virgin who's anxious to become a condom-purchasing, Vadge-Porking adherent to the non-nerd society that has shunned him so.

Amanda is the lone Goth in her small town. She's the sole girl her age who loves Charles Manson and Archie Andrews. Unfortunately for her, these superficialities won't keep everyone at bay, and it only encourages nerds to hit on her.

Alex is a former Fattie who, despite his love of Sports and other non-homosexual activities, has a weakness for the nerd culture that his "Real Men" peers avoid.

Arnold is the rugged idealist who owns and operates The Literary Dragon, a place where The Humanities and Entertainment meet. And for all you female fat fetishists, he's single.

Christine is a real jerk who could find a guy if she didn't live in the middle of nowhere. But as she does live in the middle of nowhere, she'll have to fill time by pestering nerds.

Sally is a Religious-type who both values, and is frustrated by, her virginity. If the End Times are "coming", why can't she?

Dirk is 29 and lives with his mother. He doesn't shower or floss. Also, he reads nothing but comic books and porno. In other words, he doesn't live by your rules.

Candace is both gorgeous and cruel (with a lot of shallowness thrown in). She's perfect for nerds who want to practice hitting on a girl without taking the chance of having to go out with her.

Derivative Comics at derivativecomics.com, by Brad Hodges, supplies all those internet-using nerdlingers with graphics and stories that poke fun and spew hatred at the concepts of Popular Culture and Neo-Nerdism, which have supplanted philosophy and individualism in this mother-fucking modern world.

Available for viewing right now at http://derivativecomics.com, Derivative Comics or derivativecomics offers a twice-weekly webstrip, 1998-BIT, about the travails of three lifelong pals who are as sick of each other as they are of the lousy comics, video games, and movies they’ve consumed since childhood. Also perceivable are three webcomics devoted (in whole or in part) to the Female Form (BUT I KNOW WHAT I LIKES, WHAT WAITS BENEATH? and THE BUST). Zombies, Liefeldian Superheroes, and other familiar abominations are also featured in these same stories.
