Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • Ensemble Darkhorse: The little-seen but hugely popular Allen the Alien. Kirkman has stated that, in his experience with the fandom, Allen is nearly everybody's favorite character.)
    • He's also Kirkman's favorite character, which is part of the reason why he hardly shows up. Kirkman's well aware that all it takes is a little overexposure to turn the Ensemble Darkhorse into The Scrappy.
  • Rescued from the Scrappy Heap: Oliver became a lot more tolerable after he began to appreciate humans better.
  • What Do You Mean It's Not for Kids?: Usually the 'Allen the Alien' issues begin cutting away from a sex scene, with Kirkman explaining he wants to keep the comic family friendly. These issues tend to contain some of the most violent battles in the comic, the first having Allen's intestines and eye ripped out. Yeah, real family friendly Kirkman.
