Revision as of 19:19, 10 February 2014

Cast of characters

Subnormality has a range of characters, observed for the normalcy of their human (and sometimes super- in- or sub- human) natures.

Each character listed is described generally how they are presented-- but don't go assuming the descriptions below are final or definitive. The cast of Subnormality has a tendency to grow and change in ways that surprise most readers.

Despite earlier assertions at TV Tropes, most of the continuing characters in the comic are named. However, these names are rarely introduced in an obvious manner, and often only appear in filenames. Where each character is introduced and/or named is listed below. A few unnamed continuing characters have been given "handles" in order to list them here; with the exception of Pink Haired Girl (PHG), these are entirely unofficial.

This page should remain free of obvious spoilers; but it's a public wiki, and you know how the internet can be about these things.
