Dickey Family (William Alan 'Bill' Dickey)

William Alan Dickey
She is 17 years old
Personality

Bill Dickey is an unpleasant, arrogant, and extremely stubborn man-child. He has a sadistic sense of humor and an explosive temper that leads him to argue and confront his clubmates, both verbally and physically, especially Josh Levy, though he also has conflicts with members of his own family.

He has a hierarchical view of fandom and considers club members, especially himself, to be above everyone else. He is competitive and needs to feel superior to those around him. This is demonstrated when he gets a job at a comic book store and feels like he has "won" in front of his friends.

He is possessive of his interests and has an exclusionary attitude, believing that his tastes and knowledge put him above other people. He often expresses prejudiced opinions and uses homophobic and discriminatory insults toward people with disabilities.

Throughout the comic, his negative traits intensify to almost sociopathic levels. In his adulthood, especially in Behold, There Will Be an Epilogue!, his view of life worsens even further: he becomes more intolerant and comes to believe that women with intellectual interests are only seeking men's attention.

Bill is often unpopular with his peers, even within the club itself. His fanaticism for comics and fandom can reach dangerous levels, affecting his relationships and how he behaves with others.

Josh Levy:
He's a science fiction fanatic, intelligent, and quite argumentative. He often clashes with Bill, especially when their opinions disagree and neither wants to admit the other is right.
Jerry Stokes:
He's the member interested in role-playing games and fantasy. He's part of Bill's group of friends and shares their passion for geek culture, though he also participates in their arguments and conflicts. He's usually the quietest, but that's only because he's a coward and a weakling who doesn't stand up for anything and just follows his friends like a dog.
Pete DiNunzio:
He's the member of the club most passionate about horror, monsters, and gore. He shares the group's fanaticism for comics and other cult topics, and he often gets involved in fights and rivalries among his friends. He's the most violent and impulsive of the four.
They have a pretty toxic relationship

A geek in her own way: she's interested in the occult, voodoo rituals, and other strange topics. She enjoys researching these things and sharing them with her school friends.
Emotionally reserved: although she can be sensitive, she hates showing vulnerability. She prefers to hide her feelings behind a tough, sarcastic, or indifferent attitude.
His relationship with Bill
The hatred between them runs deep. Before her parents' divorce, Jane would turn to Bill when their arguments got too heated. In those moments, he would sit with her and read her a comic book while they both tried to ignore the shouting.
Those brief moments of calm were among the few peaceful experiences they shared during their childhood. However, that doesn't mean Jane has forgiven Bill or that she maintains a loving relationship with him. The memories may hold significance for her, but they don't erase the resentment she currently feels.
Her refuges: reading about the occult, her friends, her personal interests, and her room. There she can temporarily forget the hostility of her home.

Physically she is quite short for being 12-13 years old, her hair is naturally brown but she dyes it completely purple and she has eyes just like Bill's

He is between 9 and 10 years old
He's not confrontational: he doesn't enjoy arguments or revenge. Unlike Jane, he doesn't want to confront Bill; what he wants is for him to leave him alone.
His relationship with Bill
Tommy doesn't have a loving bond with his older brother. The fear he feels towards him makes any possibility of trust difficult, and Bill and Jane's teasing when they frighten him reinforces his tendency to remain silent.
Although Jane also participates in some of these pranks, she usually defends him when Bill mistreats him. For Tommy, she can be a source of protection, even though her own hostility toward Bill also contributes to the family tension.
His refuges: his toys, quiet moments, the closeness of his mother when he needs comfort and, especially, his father's house, where he prefers to stay because the atmosphere is calmer for him.

Currently, their arguments are frequent and can escalate into physical confrontations. Bill is uncooperative, steals money from her purse, and often responds with hostility, while she reacts with shouting and aggression.
This does not make either of them the sole cause of all the family problems: their relationship is trapped in a cycle of hurt, mistrust, and hostility that neither of them can break.
Her refuges: alcohol, which she uses to escape her reality, and work, which allows her to stay busy and financially support the household. However, neither of these resolves her problems or repairs her relationship with her children.

Currently divorced from Mrs. Dickey, he maintains no direct contact with his children. He accepts their visits but makes no effort to raise them, simply sending enough money and remaining largely detached from their lives.

The Dickeys are not simply a family that argues a lot: they are four people who live under the same roof, but who have ended up emotionally isolating themselves from each other.
Each of them finds a different way to escape their reality. Bill immerses himself in his hobbies and toxic friendships; Jane builds her own world and feeds her resentment; Tommy seeks safety away from the fights; and his mother tries to cope with her life through work and alcohol.
The most tragic aspect is that their shelters keep them apart. The peaceful memories Jane shared with Bill during childhood stand in stark contrast to the current violence, while Tommy doesn't even have a secure relationship with his older brother.
The result is a home with very little trust, affection, or healthy communication. Not because everyone is the same, but because each person has developed a different way of surviving a cohabitation that has become deeply dysfunctional.
