You don’t have to tag him because no one will go looking for him because, if they remember him at all, they know he’s brought up in this one comic and that’s it.
…I know it shouldn’t, but it bugs me that “Howard Lesse” doesn’t add up to a pun. “Leif Lesse”! Hah, because he’s a nerd! Except he’s not Swedish. Crud.
The way Howard looks in Panel 4 makes me think Mr. Willis may have had an evil roommate…
If he doesn’t have a name, I volunteer “Brendan.”
or Trevor.
hey, i’m not Joe this time!
Do we go on to actually see the roommate in question? If not, I say he’s really a wolf or something.
Not this Roommate. We do see some others later… could this be the earliest mention of the buckets of blood guy?
Quick, feed him Joe.
… Wow. There’s a character that’s been more forgotten about by the Walkyverse than Howard and the RA.
He’s never even mentioned again. He’s more joke than man.
… So yeah, I think we can all just say Howard got the room haunted by the campus demon and never speak of this again for fear of awakening him.
Maybe he got Chen.
I never forgot Howard. He’s the guy who is gonna sexually assault Kate Mulgrew. That sort of event sticks in your memory.
Yeah, in his case it’s more him being forgotten by comparison, since unlike the RA or Dana he’s an actual character who just kind of vanished.
Maybe he got kidnapped by aliens while nobody was looking?
You don’t have to tag him because no one will go looking for him because, if they remember him at all, they know he’s brought up in this one comic and that’s it.
Can we retroactively make him Buckets of Blood Guy?
heh heh heh heh
I’m guessing you like this idea.
I like it. New headcanon!
This is my new canon.
Headcanonin’ this something fierce. (“…raw meat…raw, naked meat, smothered in juice from a kitten that’s been tied to a post for two days…”)
need to read all comments before posting, less I make a douche out of myself.

His middle name is Whitney, if I’m remembering right, for a nice “Whit Lesse” pun.
That’s great-o. Now I mind less.
