character bios
how do you write bios for characters with no clear history, no obvious origin, nor even a single storyline?
throughout the history of tic toc tom, these characters have been molded, reworked, killed and reborn, yet their concepts - character ideas - have remained near constant regardless of the story.
qll of these characters were originally created by chetan patel, and it is in his stories that we draw deepest.

tic toc tom
tom is the guy who blows things up. it's a simple, one-gag concept that becomes so much more when a life is wrapped around it. tom is very close to his friends. he seems genuinely warm, funny and thoughtful. yet his flipside is violently destructive, angry and vengeful. why does Tom do what he does? this is the question that makes tom so compelling.

industrial girl
industrial girl, aka iggy, is hardcore, badass sexy incarnate. she is perhaps even a more violent killer than tom, but she knows how to keep it in perspective - there is no mystery here, it's a job and the pay isn't bad. questions do follow iggy though. how did an easy going teenager become a gun-for-hire mofo? is there something between tom and iggy other than steaming corpses?

jack shit
we all have friends like jack shit. arrogant pricks who we've known too long not to love, who always get their way and aren't afraid to let everyone know about it. jack shit is the host of a popular talk show where he's brash, insulting and confrontational. he makes a lot of enemies, but it's great tv.
