Chris's ego, is, and always will be, his most problematic trait. Over the years, Chris's excessive narcissism has created many problems for him; whether it's his all-consuming craving for praise of his questionable artistic talent, thinking that his minor inconveniences outweigh in importance the death of a family member, or simply not giving fellow members of society any respect whatsoever, in summary Chris really pays no heed to anyone who isn't him. Now, while some of this can be attributed to his autism, much the same as reality, for the most part, Chris willingly chooses to be the self-obsessed man he is, much to the annoyance of those around him. In fact, there's so much evidence for his overt self-absorption that it merits its own list.

Chris's egotism has leaked into the comic, as well. While the focus of the series was originally centred around the main character, Sonichu, Chris's heavily idealized (i.e. given god-like powers and virtues and a proportionate build to compensate for Chris's stunted physical ability and morality) self-insert slowly, but surely, became the main focus of the story. The best example of this being Sonichu 4, which consisted of several sub-episodes dedicated to the semi-fabricated accounts of Chris's real life experiences with the sole purpose of attempting to make Chris look like a martyr to garner some sympathy. Sonichu, in fact, is hardly even in the entire issue, even though the series is NAMED after him. While Chris originally planned to get rid of his comic-persona, due to constant criticism, it never really took off, as he managed to find himself as the main character, once again, despite a little deus-ex machina, here and there. In Sonichu 10, Chris goes full god-mode Mary-sue, giving his self-insert's super mode a super mode.

Even today, in 2014, we can still catch glimpses of Chris's continually monstrous ego, even when concentrated into misspelled Facebook posts and vastly over-priced eBay merchandise. (Read more...)
