Farewell [insert QC character here]! See you again never!

bunnyThor:
Some folks will call this heresy. I call it character discussion.

From time to time, Jeph runs out of things he wants to do with a character and they go away. Some, like Raven, leave with an explanation of where they have gone and why. Others like Amir or Sarah, just disappear one day and never show up again.

From the current cast, which character do you most hope Jeph will weary of and put on the shelf for an indeterminate period of time? Feel free to explain the merits of your choice, that's what the thread is for. And don't worry about potential problems with "group dynamics" or "focus of the strip" or "plot consequences". Go with your heart instead. Who do you want to see erased?

(And no saying "I love love love them all!" One of them has to bug you more than the others. Be honest.)

foolsguinea:
I don't really like this business of writing out characters.

Pintsize is the character I dislike the most, but I guess he gives Jeph a break from human drama now & again.

Is it cold in here?:
Closely related thread from a while back.

Carl-E:
Unfortunately, the person I was going to vote for here has her name misspelled...

Cosette (not Collette) is currently my least favorite character.  Not so much for her "fundamental characteristics", whatever those may be (the "cursed" gag seems to have run its course) but more because of her most recent appearances.  Her possessiveness of Steve while concurrently cowing him just hit too close to home - one of my first girlfriends in college, and we'll just leave it at that.   :-P

Edit: After posting I finished reading that other thread, and noticed that Jeph locked it.  I guess we need to tread here with care - there were a few people who were pretty flippant in that other thread.  Now, BunnyThor likes being contrarian, but he makes a good point - and I think giving your reasons (without being nasty for the sake of nastiness) may keep this thread from lockdown. 

Maybe not. 

We'll see, I'm gonna leave this up. 

TRVA123:
I'd honestly rather see some characters on the bus back into town. I really liked Dale and Amir, and I want an update on Deathmole (maybe see them jam w/ Sven?)

But, to actually answer your question: Probably Martins Mom. For some reason this recent visit from Ms. Reed just rubbed me the wrong way, which is funny, as the first time she visited I liked her a lot.
