No one would try to tell this guy a funny story, he is obviously a violent man that is triggered by any very small annoyances life presents, no one would want to be near him.

That squashed face is reminiscent of a Robert Crumb comic

Now that you mention R Crumb, it seems like there are a lot of similarities to Everett True.

I wasn't alive during that era so unfortunately I'm unfamiliar

Sometimes, I understand his outbursts completely. But sometimes he just needs a Snickers...

Everett does need to see someone about his anger issues

The more I see this comic, the more I'm sure he's my inner being.
