First up we have Cliff.
Cliff is a DC nerd tried and true, and he's not afraid to tell you that. He essentially in love with Geoff Johns for what he calls "saving the DC Universe." Cliff basically ignores all other publishers outside of the DC entertainment titles and will not hesitate in insulting you if your fandom doesn't match his. Despite his irrational dislike for other companies and their fans Cliff is fairly nice to people, you know, just as long as you are not a Marvel Zombie. That brings us to Cliff's best friend and roommate Jim.
For some reason Cliff puts up with Jim and his fandom of any company besides DC. In Cliff's mind he views that everyone has to have a foil. That and Jim was his best friend growing up. Cliff likes to tell people the foil excuse though. Now Jim is a Marvel Zombie. If it has Bendis name on it, he'll buy it. Including Spider-woman. Though Jim is a Marvel Zombie, he does buy outside of the company, but not much. Namely the few Image titles that Bendis penned. Jim is a former Valiant Comics fan and misses his favorite universe.
That's the two main characters. Keep checking in to see the supporting cast and remember Mere Mortals debuts Saturday. URL to come later.
Kind of like a political radio show with a democrat and a republican. In that example as well, the smaller groups are not well represented :)

Well, there are more characters. There is Dennis which is the moderate character that reads anything outside of the big two. He's the voice of reason in the group. I still need to come up with his look, though. No worries about that right now since I am not expecting to debut him in the strip for another month. The first arc deals with Cliff and James. Along with a couple other characters.
