Can Steve Just Be Killed Off?
nobo:
I agree, Steve is the only legit realistic character. Why ruin this fantasy world with an accurate portrayal of a guy in his mid 20s?
Surgoshan:
Steve can't die.
His girlfriend will die, and he'll become Batman.
-Karamazov-:
I don't like the fact that Steve has now become the depressing figure. Originally he was Marten's character foil, the person who always seemed happy and could get a date as easily as he could tie his shoes. But ever since the episode with Ellen, he become a wuss. He even more depressing than Marten was. It made him an uninteresting character, which I guess is why we don't see him anymore.
Steve needs a revamp. Especially so Marten can at least hang out with other guys again.
sleepless3:
Y'know, it isn't unrealistic to have an uneven number of male vs. female characters in one's life. Lots of groups of friends tend to contain more of one or the other, so perhaps it doesn't matter if there are very few male characters.
That said, I thoroughly enjoyed the talking alcohol bottles!
(...now, off I trot to the, "Hi, I'm new," threads..)
PassiveTheory:
I don't even think a revamp is in order. This is either going to be a one-shot panel or a rehashed story of "Oh, hi there Steve, looks like you lost your way YET AGAIN. It's not like you could ever have ANY concrete character development on your own, so now Super Marten is here to save the day!" I mean that was funny once, but if it's going to be nearly the same goddamn story, you can count me out.
Granted, if this is just a one-shot so that no one asks about Steve ever again (couldn't he have just been eaten by an Allosaurus), this was a shitty way to write him off; as the drunk drunk drunk drunk loser guy.
It's not about Marten's harem or the fact he has no dude friends anymore, it's just mere regression. I don't even care about Steve that much and I still think this was stupid.
