Somewhere in an anthropomorphic society of insects, rocks and other creatures known as Bugworld lives Crange, an acorn with a drinking problem, a lack of morals, and no interest in moving forward with his life. After losing the tree that served as his parental figure and home, Crange’s life takes a turn for the weird, getting into situations ranging from run-ins with bug werewolves and murderous “artists” to kidnappings by thieves and making deals with the Devil — and as it turns out, there's more to those isolated incidents (and Crange himself) than it seems.He Is A Good Boy is a webcomic by KC Green (who previously created Gunshow and concurrently wrote BACK with fellow artist Anthony Clark). Running from 2015 until 2019, HIAGB can be found here. Be warned: the copious gore and some of the humor regularly makes it Not Safe for Work.Green ran a Kickstarter campaign to release the collected comic as a graphic novel in 2020.

"Crange Is Stuck In A Room" is alluded to being "a Silent Hill parodie" in its opening's Alt Text, and is explicitly labeled as such by the third strip's description. The plot mirrors that of the fourth game.

Doppelgänger Replacement Love Interest: This ends up being the case with the main Crange and the second Emerson we follow for most of the comic’s plot. The first Emerson dies and gets replaced by another version of them from a different time loop, who fell in love with and lost their Crange before being reassigned.

 He Is a Good Boy (Webcomic) / int_2a321a1f
comment
A Date with Rosie Palms: In "Crange Leaves Himself," Crange's intellectual side gives it a good whack to measure how it feels without a corporeal body. (It's not the same.) The entirety of the plot of "Crange Is Horny" hinges on Crange finding a place to pleasure himself after seeing an attractive bug at the bar. The Wristchapel has a dedicated room for the alternate Crange population to masturbate. It’s right next to the room where the more adventurous ones can get freaky with each other.

Character Development

comment
Character Development: Initially it seems like Crange has no interest in 'planting himself' and moving forward with his life, but the conversation he has with the monster in 'Crange Falls Down A Well' suggests otherwise. Similarly, he doesn't really seem to care about his tree beyond the material benefits it provided him at first, but during and after his run-in with the lumberjack that killed said tree in 'Crange Gets A Drink,' it starts to hit home that he wasn't the best son.

Jerk with a Heart of Gold
 He Is a Good Boy (Webcomic) / int_4781adbb
comment
Jerk with a Heart of Gold: Crange‘s Character Development sees him shift into this role over the course of the comic. For all of his faults (and there are many), he has a couple of moments of genuine kindness and compassion that have the effect of keeping us in his corner despite his basest behaviors. After talking to the lumberjack that killed his tree and realizing he was kind of a terrible person to his de facto parental figure, Crange has a full-on emotional breakdown in “Crange Stops a Robbery.” When he meets the ghost responsible for turning his wank session into a nightmare in “Crange Is Horny,” after the initial shock of the situation wears off, Crange gives a solid go at talking it out with his attacker, though the ghost is even more embarrassed by the idea of speaking about his repressed urges than Crange is. Toward the end of the comic, once he finds out about the Emersons’ plan to use the Crange we’ve been following throughout to start another cycle, Crange tells his bartender that he’s the only version of Emerson that he’ll forgive, since they were the only one that actually cared about him.

comment
When the Planets Align: Crange splits into two beings, one representing his intellectual side thirsting to free himself from his reality in a ghostlike form and the other being his hedonistic slacker side, who keeps his corporeal body. After being freed from the other the two Cranges find their own forms of happiness, and almost agree to live their lives entirely separately until Saturn falls out of line and they become one being again.

Technical Pacifist: Crange may stick up for himself where he can, but he is really reluctant about killing people, and is consistently disgusted with the idea of taking a life. The fact that his only recurring source of murderous hatred, out of all the antagonistic people he's found in his travels, has been himself is not lost on him in the slightest.

Pronoun Trouble: A meta example. The Alt Text that initially mentions the mantis uses "she", but in all subsequent appearances the character is referred to with the gender-neutral "they". Of course, "they" isn't used until after the mantis is killed and replaced by another, so it's possible that the first mantis was female.

Creepy Good: While we don't know much about them, the praying mantis seems to be this, serving as a guardian of sorts for Crange. This particularly shows up in "Crange Can't Go Home," in which they murder the bartender and pretends to be the owner of the bar in order to let the homeless Crange stay there, and in "Crange Takes A Shit," where they throw the dead bar patrons' remains in the dumpster in order to keep Crange from seeing them after coming to, telling their dead predecessor, "For the good of Crange...". Of course, this depends on what you think is best for Crange. The mantis's goal may well to be to provide comfort, to keep Crange from having to change his situation. Compared to change, misery is downright comfortable. It turns out the Mantis has been doing a helluvalot more for Crange than we thought. Aaaaaand it turns out Crange's second Mantis is the only one who gives a damn. Might be time for them to turn in the 'good' part...

Major Injury Underreaction: The old lady in "Crange Robs A Liquor Store" takes a shotgun shell to the face in one strip... and continues firing at the robber gang with a hole in her head. By the end of the gunfight half of her face is down to the bone and she isn't so much as fazed by it. For someone who got his guts forcibly removed in "Crange Goes To The Hospital," Crange doesn't seem terribly affected by it, even briefly forgetting his injury whilst admiring his makeshift bandages.

After talking to the lumberjack that killed his tree and realizing he was kind of a terrible person to his de facto parental figure, Crange has a full-on emotional breakdown in “Crange Stops a Robbery.”

Eye Scream: In "Crange and the Bartender" one of the ways the bartender imagines Crange getting maimed by the traps in the underground passage is by stepping on a tile that triggers a belt-fed mounted crossbow that fills his eyes with a mass amount of bolts.

Shout-Out
 He Is a Good Boy (Webcomic) / int_c75df49a
comment
Shout-Out: A few. The alt text for one strip in "Crange Leaves Himself" tells the reader to 'think of Arin from Game Grumps' in reference to the joyful "yyee-aaaahhh" let out by Ghost!Crange. The entirety of the "Crange Is A Good Ol' Boy Who Is Here And Back" chapter sees our hero replaced by a suspicious creature (referred to in the intertitle as a "pod person") with the facial structure and mannerisms of Homer Simpson. Other pod people appear in "Crange Gets High With The Pod People" under the guise of Garfield and SpongeBob SquarePants. The other Crange clones that show up in the Wristchapel are Peter Griffin, Popeye, Hello Kitty, Finn, Jake, Buttercup, Jughead, one of the Warner siblings, Charlie Brown, Daria Morgendorffer, Gumby, Betty Boop, Pooh, Dexter, Pikachu, Bugs Bunny, Tweety Bird, Yosemite Sam, Porky Pig, Bobby Generic, Barney Rubble, Dino, Eric Cartman, Stimpson J. Cat, Doug Funnie, Cosmo, and Rat Fink. There are also Emerson clones resembling Fred Flintstone, Pac-Man, Odie, Peppa Pig, and the Grim Reaper. Whilst contemplating the pros and cons of being turned into a werewolf, Crange notes "Van Helsing (?)" as a possible con. When Van Helsing later appears in "Crange and the Vampires," he calls Crange a "harked vagrant." Earlier, Crange imitates the classic panel of Tom Buchanan. As the training video in "Orientation" mentions bugs being cultured beings like humans, a bug is shown with a boxset of the first season of Breaking Bad. In "Crange and the Ants", the alt-text and visuals reference the Lemon Demon song "Spiral of Ants", from the album "Spirit Phone". For whatever reason Crange namedrops Pirates of the Caribbean while using sailor lingo in this strip. In the first two strips of "Crange and the Crazy Castle", a guy whose brain is being used to power a "portal destroyer" rambles about how Chuck Jones' Looney Tunes shorts "Hair-Raising Hare" and "Water, Water, Every Hare" are the exact same. This is to foreshadow what the arc will be a parody of. "Crange Is Stuck In A Room" is alluded to being "a Silent Hill parodie" in its opening's Alt Text, and is explicitly labeled as such by the third strip's description. The plot mirrors that of the fourth game. The Sdrawkcab Names of the vampires as mentioned above are those of vampires across different media. In "Crange Starts His Day. (Again)", Crange uses the computer onboard the rocket to play Moistsun Basin. The door on the Wristchapel that leads to the god apparently shaped into Crange is modeled after the boss doors from Super Mario World. In "Crange Digs a Grave", Crange meets a man pining after a dead woman named Lenore, and helps him dig up her grave so he can, uh, have relations with her corpse. After this, Crange stumbles upon a clown skeleton while looking in a hole, and after that he finds a man strapped to a table with an axe swinging over his stomach. After this, Crange decides he's had enough and decides to abort the story arc. It doesn't work.

Art Evolution

comment
Art Evolution: Since the start the scales on Crange's cupule have effectively disappeared, and the style of the comic itself, while still very similar to its initial incarnation, has gotten looser and more cartoony with time. Compare this early strip to the comic about a year later. Another good example is comparing the very first page of the comic to a much later page that harkens back to it. Emerson's design changes drastically, their head becoming less realistically drawn within the first few chapters. Compare their first appearance in the prologue to 43 pages later. Hell, their head completely narrows out within the span of a page in Crange Gets Shot Into Space.
