Tony is basically a very nice guy; polite, soft-spoken, even tempered,
considerate. But he certainly doesn't look the part and few people, especially
women, expect him to be as quiet and shy as he is.
The years have beaten Tony's self-esteem into the ground. He spent most of
his life exceedingly overweight due his rampant sweet tooth. Although he
recently burned off the fat by taking up weight-training, his mind has yet
to move beyond his childhood role of "The Fat Kid." He's now hypersensitive
about his appearance, particularly around females. His family always believed
they knew what was best for him (and were quite wrong), and made all his
decisions for him; consequently, he can't make any decisions now, and overthinks
problems until it generally is too late. He shuns the spotlight, preferring
to stay in the background, which makes him very well-suited for his role
as the narrator of the strip...he is generally an observer to everyone else's
craziness.
Perhaps college will loosen Tony up a bit and restore the self-confidence
he has lost...
