Resemblance between game and comic characters

Some people might not be aware of this, but there are characters that are loosely based-off one another. Two times this has happened is with Dee & Donna, and Kenny & Morton.

Both Dee and Donna are blonde, use the same hairstyle, are around the same age, and they are also similar personality-wise. As if this was not enough, Dee was struck in the left side of the face with a rebar, and Donna was bitten in the left side of her face, both women bleeding in the eye severely.

Kenny and Morton Rose look alike, both of them wearing a cap, having mullets and a stubble. The two are quite hot-headed and can be irrational at times, though they think they are doing the right thing, but this only due to them trying to protect their wife and son.

Do you think there is intentional resemblance, or is it purely coincidental? Let me know what you think! By the way, this is my first post on the forum, but I've been lurking here for over a year.

  • I think it was intentional only because I think I remember at the end of the game it says based on the comic, but i'm not entirely sure.

  • Well, the game and the comic are in the same universe. I think that's what it means when it says it's based off the comic. But there's no doubt that these character share similarities.

  • I think Morton Rose was actually a character after Kenny.

  • 1st off, welcome to the forums. 2nd, awesome handle(profile name). 3rd, I think it's coincidental. Also, I think there are a few similarities between a few characters from all mediums.

  • Thanks, and thanks again! Yeah, it probably is. There are lots of characters that share subtle similarities, so they probably overlook it.

  • This is interesting. I commend you for pointing this out.

  • looks intentional, but i'm not sure...

  • That makes sense...
