A New Antagonist for QC?
Tova:
I hate it as well. I can't explain why, even to myself. It just gets my back up whenever I read it.
Gyrre:
1) Dear God, no. When I have to deal with people like that IRL, I usually end up wanting to strangle them with barbed-wire.
[No, I have never actually done that.]
2) Apparently there's a list based on age range. My apologies to anyone who happens to have any of these names.

We do have at least two antagonists ready to roll if Jeph so chose:
* Hannermom
* An official in charge of deciding whether or not May ought to be granted a properly functioning chassis (perhaps the one Roko has already spoken with)

In a way in QC's history characters have mostly served as antagonists to on another, which works well for a slice of life comic.
Vespavenger did work for me, but only because it was so over the top and a short storyline.
I guess the biggest antagonist/villain we've had was corpsewitch, and a similar antagonist (maybe with more ambiguity) could be interesting. Hannermom seems to be the best option to me, especially because I've always felt that initially there seemed to be more layers to her personality and less of a purely-evil nature to her (corporate evil yes, but otherwise?). There is even room for a storyline with possibly some kind of (limited) redemption for her and/or some form of reconciliation with Hanners, if the latter would desire any that is....

The person who goes out of their way to annoy people/stir.
People who in real life would either be ignored, or introduced to Mr Boot.

Wait, I thot Mike was your favorite DoA character.
