Characters of Cracked Plaster

Each character was based on a real person, but I can't divulge their real names (that wouldn't be kosher). Moving clockwise from the top...
Mac and Company
  • Mazola was a resident advisor at a women's dorm with a soft spot for us; she let us get away with murder.
  • Nodge made a lot of noise. He used to work for the government; now he's a househusband.
  • Flem was a sourpuss, which was absolutely necessary for comedic balance. Good ol' Flem.
  • Catfish was a Jewish fellow from Baltimore attending a West Virginia college. Everyone say "Oy! Deliverance!"
  • Card Boy lived across the hall. He was a true fashion original who two-timed us by appearing in another comic strip.
  • Kevin always had these crushes on women. It was kinda eerie. He's happily married now, and relatively well-adjusted.
  • Dave wore black t-shirts and loved Metallica, Pink Floyd, and the Dead. He works for some window company now, I think.
  • Ace, if he were in a singing group, would be known by screaming teens everywhere as the "Really Bad Backstreet Boy." He's on his second marriage now.
  • Mick was this guy who smoked a lot and drank too much coffee.
