Line 4:
The characters include:
* Blake - Often the [[Only Sane Man]] and [[Author Avatar]], named after Blake Schwarzenbach from the band Jawbreaker. Expect a lot of [[Lampshade Hanging]] over the bizarre size of his eyebrows.
* Fletcher - A crazy bald [[TedSmall BaxterName, Big Ego]] type, Blake's best friend. Blake and Fletcher together are the main characters.
* Alice - A [[Perky Goth]] who goes out with Karen.
* Karen - An overly serious Riot Grrrl who starts dating Alice to get attention for her feminist agenda, but actually develops feelings for her. Although initially something of a [[Straw Feminist]], Karen later becomes a harbinger of common sense.
Line 12:
The first book collecting the strips in paper form will be out on October 15, 2008.

{{tropelist}}
=== Trope featured include: ===
* [[All the Good Men Are Gay]]: Fletcher actively attacks this trope in one strip, when a woman at a bar utters it practically word for word. His response? "You mean, why are the only guys you find non-threatening the ones with no possible ulterior motives to sleep with you? Yeah, the mind boggles." Fletcher is, perhaps rather obviously, far from the best counterexample to trope...
* [[Animal Wrongs Group]]: Preachy veganism is often mocked in the strip. Here's one of the [https://web.archive.org/web/20131110234054/http://www.mitchclem.com/nothingnice/17/ earliest examples.]
* [[Art Shift]]: Since the relaunch in fall 2011, the characters have become far less boxy and more fluid-looking. Compare [https://web.archive.org/web/20120319101003/http://www.mitchclem.com/nothingnice/318/ this] to [https://web.archive.org/web/20130707081942/http://www.mitchclem.com/nothingnice/539/ this]
* [[Big Ol' Eyebrows]]: There's a minor [https://web.archive.org/web/20131110234151/http://www.mitchclem.com/nothingnice/28/ running] [https://web.archive.org/web/20120319102614/http://www.mitchclem.com/nothingnice/225/ gag] involving Fletcher's eyebrows.
* [[Fake Crossover]]: [https://web.archive.org/web/20120622111005/http://www.mitchclem.com/nothingnice/439/ The Doctor] shows up in a strip!
* [[Girl -On -Girl Is Hot]]: Averted brilliantly (and also serving as a [[Take That]] to misogynistic fans) in [httphttps://wwwweb.archive.org/web/20120605063700/http://mitchclem.com/nothingnice/243/ this strip.]
* [[A Good Name for Aa Rock Band]]: The Negative Adjectives.
* [[The Man Is Sticking It to Thethe Man]]: [https://web.archive.org/web/20130923122725/http://www.mitchclem.com/nothingnice/49/ Played straight] in an early strip, then [https://web.archive.org/web/20131007155140/http://www.mitchclem.com/nothingnice/494/ lampshaded] more recently.
* [[Name's the Same]]: [[Played for Laughs]] when describing the real vs. fictional bands known as [https://web.archive.org/web/20120321074515/http://www.mitchclem.com/nothingnice/290/ The Misfits.]
* [[New First Comics]]: The earliest comics have been redrawn, but this is due to the originals being in a file format that prevents them from being usable for the upcoming book. The original first strips are still online so anyone can see the [[Art Evolution]] if they want.
* [[Smug Straight Edge]]: Bort the lapsed Straight Edge hasn't abandoned two parts of the straight edge lifestyle; [https://web.archive.org/web/20120319112830/http://www.mitchclem.com/nothingnice/120/ taking himself too seriously and beating people up].
* [[Take That]]: ''Extremely'' common in NN2S, happening in practically every other strip; see the numerous "I Hate The ____" strip titles.
