Character Description

Chuck Walker
Chuck Walker

Chuck Walker was, at least initially, Fooker's next door neighbor. Chuck was quite the party animal and any excuse to party was a good one. He first appeared in the strip when Trudy moved in next door and he was immediately smitten with GPF Software's resident evil marketing chick. While we don't know much else about him, we do know he and Fooker seemed to get along well until Chuck mysteriously betrayed him with false testimony at Fooker's murder trial. As events unfolded, the gang eventually learned of Trudy's brainwashing of Chuck, which led to him being a key element in shattering GPF Software and scattering its employees. Fortunately, Ki managed to turn him into an ally during the Battle of Manhattan, where he confronted Trudy. Sadly, his change of sides came too little, too late; Trudy activated her mind control device and allowed it to run unchecked, eventually giving him an brain aneurysm leading to his death.

During To Thine Own Self..., the GPF gang discovered that the "alternate" version of Chuck was alive and well, serving in the resistance against Emperor Nicholas the Puissant.

Miscellaneous Notes

When he was first introduced, Chuck was often confused with Dwayne by many readers, primarily because they were both African American males with similar appearances. Technically, Chuck's skin tone is darker than Dwayne's in both gray scale and color strips, and his head is rectangular while Dwayne's is square. However, these differences were apparently too subtle, giving rise to a number of readers thinking Trudy brainwashed Dwayne instead of Chuck. This was the primary motivation for having Chuck shave his head so the two would be easier to tell apart.
