@brbposting @Rolando Everett is one of those characters where I can hear his voice absolutely clearly

@Rolando Everett in full "Man of the People" mode. There was another one along the same line where a pastor recognized a rich deacon for donating for foreign missions and Everett yelled that the money would be better spent fixing up the tenements he owned which were in such bad shape they were a danger to the inhabitants
@verity_kindle @AllNewTypeFace Women achieving property-rights equality with men was a gradual process but well underway by Everett's time. https://www.thoughtco.com/property-rights-of-women-3529578

@Rolando This is the second one I've seen where True is mortified by the memory of his lovey dovey talk towards Mrs True in their youth.
In the other one he scoffs at a woman talking to a baby in a sugary cootchy-coo kind of way, and Mrs True points out that's exactly how he used to talk to her when they were courting.
Oh Everett. You will never live down your lovey dovey ways as a youthful swain
@MeDuViNoX @Rolando he's not morbidly obese, he's approaching deadly geometric perfection. Like a cannonball, or a sphere of red-hot nickel, or the Demon Core.
@turtlepower it varies. Sometimes he's absolutely in the right (opposing cruelty to animals, corruption, people being selfish and mean), sometimes he's hilariously petty and ridiculous (he punches a guy for wearing his hat crooked at one point). But that's late-stage Everett, early Everett just said cruel things and then everybody around him grins or compliments him cause that's "what they were all thinking". Lame.
@turtlepower I dunno about sexist, but he's being a dick. Which is in character for early True, whose only real character trait was being a dick.
Before he had evolved into the later True we all love, who was an avenging angel of over-the top righteous (or sometimes extremely petty) violence.

@Rolando @truecomics you can mostly predict how much of a good guy Everett is going to be by how closely his form approximates a perfect sphere. Early Everett was more normal human shaped and was just a dick. This is a highly spherical good guy Everett!
