Also, both modeled and named after the author — who then later went by "Yonen" to differentiate himself from the homicidal maniac shooting up schools he was drawing while still in school...

The 90s were wild.

source: I know his former classmates personally, and they each wanted to be far AF away from him ASAP.

I knew a guy like this in highschool. We actually bonded over JTHM. He actually got me into webcomics and we started drawing our own that we would hand off to each other between classes. It was fantastic. I wonder what happened to that dude. Time to go dig out a yearbook!

Was a fan of his stuff while in school, but holy shit. His comics are hard to read anymore because it's very clear that his most insufferable characters are more or less self inserts. Just an amalgamation of shit takes assuming the worst of every person at an "I'm 14 and this is deep" level of insight. Like yes, of course you didn't have friends, Johnny. You think everybody is morally and intellectually beneath you. Brilliant artist and creator, but I don't think I'd want to meet the guy.

It's probably even more fucked up than what you're picturing, though pretty funny if you enjoy very dark humor.
