As some of you may know, I have a personal webcomic that I work on every week. And unlike how some stories are written, mine was done as a single story that expanded into my own universe.
The problem with doing this however, is that I didn’t really care about how my characters acted in chapter 1. At the time, I didn’t intend to make anymore comics. Now, I have slowly been fixing these problems in later chapters as my writing continues to improve, but I sometimes feel that the damage has already been done.

I’m mainly talking about my webcomics main character: Stacy.

From the beginning, I always intended her to be nerdy, but because of the direction my story was going in my writing, as well as separating her character from Eric W. Schwartz’s Sabrina, I personally feel that I made her the least interesting character in her own webcomic. * Facepalms *

Fun Fact: For those wondering, I originally intended her main attire to be an oversized sweater and glasses with an interest in Godzilla memorabilia and manga. (You can see pieces of this original concept throughout the webcomic.)

Of course, I do plan to fix this with more chapters in the future. For example: my obsessively nerdy Red Panda Amber plays a main role in this. Her main purpose so far is pacifically to plant a curiosity in Stacy to collect toys and open up more as a nerd as well as being more care-free (Her older sister Susan also plays a part in this).

It may be possible that I‘m just overthinking it, but when most art of your side characters get more attention and their dialogue as you’re writing sounds more intriguing, there’s probably something wrong...
