Hero & Villain Characters

I decided to try a more Western style cartoon, but I can still definitely see some anime style in there. I do like drawing in this style, but it's definitely harder since I'm not used to it. Of course, I still prefer the anime style since I'm so used to that, but I think this will make a nice back-up style.

Tyler Peterson
19, Male
A wannabe hero. He's obsessed with the superhero TV show "Mr. Awesome" and believes that he could be a hero, too, even without super powers. He gets bored easily, but this is easily fixed when he decided that there is "danger" (i.e. a cat stuck in a tree) nearby. He spends a great deal of his time at the local candy shop, where he eats countless numbers of candy, sometimes when he can't even pay for it.

Jacob Grant
10, Male
A young boy who, as he is walking home from school, randomly gets chosen by Tyler to be his sidekick. Jacob thinks that Tyler is way too immature and just wants to go home. He believes that Tyler is going to get everyone in the entire town (and possibly a 10 mile radius surrounding the town) killed.

Abbie Wheeler
18, Female
A childhood friend of Tyler's who works at a candy shop. She seems to be the only one who doesn't get annoyed with Tyler. She feels bad for Jacob, but manages to convince him to stick around and play along. She's not afraid to give Tyler a swift punch if his mind starts to wander when he's being spoe

Mr. Awesome
28, Male
The star of the TV show "Mr. Awesome" where he plays the part of fictional hero Mr. Awesome. In real life, he uses his Mr. Awesome costume to disguise himself in order to rob banks. Oddly enough, everyone thinks it's just some random guy wearing a Mr. Awesome costume and never consider the real Mr. Awesome to be a bank robber.
