5/5 - Guys, big news today! Read the blog post below!

Who's who in the Brooklyn zoo? Now you'll know everyone like you read a comic about them yesterday.

Eve "Pluribus Unum" Ning
First appearance: #001 - Pea Wiggle

Our angry hero. Eve rides her bike to work, takes inventory at a supermarket, and grumbles on weekends. She fancies herself a success at something, but isn't really sure what.

Eve recently broke up with her boyfriend James (it was completely mutual) and now lives in Brooklyn with her old pre-school classmate, Hanna. Eve is Chinese American and she does not know what a Xanga is.

Hanna "Bis" Thompson First Appearance: #005 - Pre-school Reunion

Eve's unsavory roommate. Prefers not to wear shoes.

Hanna has a passion for baking, if you know what I mean. She works from home on her specialty company, Bake n' Bake. She sometimes pays rent for herself and her long-term boyfriend, Marek.

Hanna is an advocate for peace, personal freedom, and small business. She is a loyal friend, and looks out for Eve in times of crisis. Hanna is high 100% of the time.

Marek "Oh, cool" Kulasenski
First Appearance: #021 - Oh.

Hanna's ever-lovin' Polish boyfriend. He loves Hanna so much. <3

Easygoing and mostly quiet, Marek goes along with whatever seems pretty okay. He is a student at Fordham University thanks to a scholarship from the PNA. Though he doesn't say much, Marek seems to be wise beyond his years. Maybe.

Marek has lived at Eve's house since he donated his only mattress to Hanna. He can change a light bulb all by himself, thank you very much.

 

Oliver Bernando "Bernando" Turner
First Appearance: #008 - Blood Oranges

Owner and proprietor of Olly's Organix, a grocery store in Manhattan's east village. Olly makes a lot of trouble for Eve, but deep down she is his favorite employee. To torture.

Will "Work for Food" LeBlanc
First Appearance: #027 - Keep It In Your Pants

Scruffy associate of Hanna's. Kind of a multi-tasker in the worst possible way. Will is really into rock-climbing, geology, and riding the subway incognito. Has kissed Eve a few times. (hehe)

James "The Jamester" Jame-a-lame-a-ding-dong
First Appearance: #002 - The Break-up

Eve's awesome ex-boyfriend. Just two Sopranos episodes away from maximum brain capacity. Somewhere between dating Eve and cleaning his nails, James shed his worldly burdens to become a thinking man. Eve never got her sweater back. Eve ultimately got her sweater back.

James now has a girlfriend who seems to like him okay.

olly
Manuel "My Only Real Friend" Cattington
First Appearance: #007 - Manuel

Eve's only real friend. Believed to be a descendent of Andy Warhol's cat, Sam. This would account for Manuel's incredible tolerance of second-hand pot smoke. Usually draped over something.

olly
Julie "Nuh-UH!" Clark
First Appearance: #050 - A Hero, A Legend

Loyal Olly's Organix employee, and one of the few pure of heart left in New York. Inspired Eve to be true to herself. Possibly in love with Eve.

olly
Jacob "Bob Marley" Marley
First Appearance: #050 - A Hero, A Legend

Not-so-loyal Olly's Organix employee. Hates possibly everything. Jacob was briefly impressed by Eve's cold, capitalistic ways. Nobody knows what he's impressed with now.

olly
Mrs. "Eve's Mom" Ning
First Appearance: #002 - The Break-up

Once gave birth to Eve. She lives alone, collects 9/11 memorabilia, meddles with things. Currently wavering somewhere between hating Eve's boyfriends and wanting to be a grandma.

olly
You (The Reader)
First Appearance: A link from Questionable Content

Mysterious and sexy. Impeccable taste in comics. Loves to wear Octopus Pie T-shirts.
