Only one real person makes any attempt to befriend Squee, a boy named Pepito who happens to be the Antichrist. Squee has only one friend, albeit a possibly imaginary one, the dilapidated teddy bear affectionately referred to as Shmee. Johnny the Homicidal Maniac focused more on the " mentoring" or "big brother" aspect of Nny and Squee's relationship, but little interaction occurs in Squee!, aside from the occasional drawing or note left in Squee's room, or short references to "the crazy neighbor man" (he does appear as an out-patient of "Defective Head Meat Institute", who Squee is oddly pleased to see). Nny regularly visits Squee late at night by breaking into his room. Squee's next door neighbor is Johnny C., also known as "Nny" (pronounced "knee"), the main character of Johnny the Homicidal Maniac (abbreviated JtHM). His grandfather claims to keep healthy and young by consuming his children's first-borns, and subsequently attempts to devour Squee, only to reveal in horrifying fashion that he is in fact a cyborg and quite possibly insane. Squee also has a grandfather who justifiably believes his children are only waiting for him to die to collect some kind of inheritance. Having little patience for anything Squee says or does, he eventually becomes convinced that Squee is mentally unstable, and by the end of the series, has him committed to the "Defective Head Meat Institute". His father, painfully aware of Squee's existence, loathes the boy and never forgets to mention that he blames Squee for "ruining" his life, claiming that he "hasn't smiled once since was born". She often forgets who Squee is, or that she even has a child. Squee's mother is addicted to some form of pill and spends a lot of time lying around in a nearly incoherent state. Any attempts he makes to deflect these hostilities only results in being shoved into the dirt or otherwise further humiliated. He is fond of writing, but only receives criticism from his teacher and taunting from his classmates. An introverted and bullied little kid with a less than supportive family, Squee has been forced to mature a bit more quickly than his peers. The series focuses on a young boy named Todd Casil, otherwise known as Squee. 2 Other notable characters in the series.
