Niels (Webcomic) | comment |
Niels is a comic done by Humon, of Scandinavia and the World fame.Niels Gyldensted is a Danish mob boss in America who has a relationship with married couple Duncan and Natalie. The comic mainly focuses on Niels' life as both a violent criminal and a lover and father figure, as well as exploring the polyamorous relationship between Niels, Duncan, and Natalie. There are occasional story arcs, but they're relatively short, and the comic is more focused on relationships than on an overarching plot.Other important characters include Elliot ("Kiddo"), Duncan and Natalie's child; Peter, an insane hippie rapist and leader of a cult; Agent 300, a James Bond-esque secret agent who flirts with Niels just a little too much; Thomas, a detective who lost all interest in catching Niels when his wife died; Wendy, Thomas's daughter; and Caron, Thomas's partner who is determined to re-motivate him and defeat Niels.Recent additions to the cast include Billy, a very masculine woman and a family friend of Niels, Duncan, and Natalie; her bodybuilder girlfriend Rose; Agent 250, an extremely badass, extremely manly agent who is tasked with keeping Agent 300 focused in his job — and who, eventually, befriends him; and Niels' son Magnus.The comic has not updated since June 2015. | |

Niels (Webcomic) / int_1439161f | comment |
Heroic BSoD: Agent 300 has two, one where he realizes that yes, he is crushing on Niels, and no, it is not a case of Stupid Sexy Flanders or Even the Guys Want Him (after Thomas rattles off a list of men who don't want him), and the other where he's fired for fraternizing with Niels. (Obviously, he gets rehired.) Thomas had one when he realized that he let chasing Niels take over his life, causing him to nearly miss his daughter's birth and actually missing his wife's last breath, leading him to quit the Niels case. | |

Parental Abandonment | |
Niels (Webcomic) / int_297ab1b9 | comment |
Parental Abandonment: Cemented a huge part of Niels's adolescence. His parents were never there for him, and were more concerned about their image than anything, brushing off concerns about Niels not being 'right in the head'. Oddly, it would appear their relationship warmed up, as they're shown to be on good terms now and even invite Niels and Natalie over and recently have come to visit. However, the author has said they still block out his weirder actions (ie. being bisexual and a horrible murder/crime boss). Duncan never knew his father, and his mother died from drugs when he was six. | |

Kick the Dog | |
Niels (Webcomic) / int_34dcfc96 | comment |
Kick the Dog: Niels shooting Agent 250 for getting too close to 300. Before 250 was revealed to be alive, some fans treated this as crossing the Moral Event Horizon. Not to mention Niels referring to 300 as being "dumb as a doorknob" and "good for nothing other than a game of cat and mouse." They're relatively light insults against a character that, until the introduction of 250, had largely been painted that way, but for someone as adamantly polite as Niels, it comes off as very harsh. | |

But Not Too Evil | |
Niels (Webcomic) / int_38dade51 | comment |
But Not Too Evil: After growing sick of all the Draco-ing of rapist/child molester/cult leader Peter, Humon posted an image of him about to molest his daughter, to underline the fact that "He is not a nice person, no matter how funny he is." The backlash was incredible. Most of it was made of people asking how could she draw something so cruel. Humon has also repeatedly tried to show this is the case with Niels himself, occasionally showing him doing things that no sane person should be able to think he's a good guy after doing. Arguably, Niels is a case of where you can like him, you're just supposed to feel bad about it. | |

Spotlight-Stealing Squad: The moment Agent 250 was introduced, he and 300 began getting much more attention than Niels and the others, mostly because if 250 was in the same room as the others he'd shoot them dead. Humon seems to enjoy making multiple pages of their budding relationship. | |

Endearingly Dorky: Agent 300 has shades of this, mostly due to his confusion about and discomfort with his newfound bisexuality, as well as his occasional lack of social skills. As 250 puts it, "He's just a sweet awkward dork in a suit." | |

Carpet of Virility | |
Niels (Webcomic) / int_7d7a5f3 | comment |
Carpet of Virility: Parodied. One of the Yaoi Rules states that the man with the most body hair is the seme. In this case, it'd be Agent 300, but he couldn't bring himself to top Niels, since he's still in the closet. Interestingly, Agent 300 seems to have gotten hairier as the series went on. Compare this early drawing, with him more recently. Averted in the actual relationship between 250 and 300. 300 certainly has more body hair, yet their intercourse has so far been implied as having 250 being on top. | |

Bratty Teenage Daughter: Agent 250's teenage daughter is more than a handful. For no clear explainable reason she once tried to bite off 300's penis. And nearly succeeded. And apparently, this wasn't the first time she had tried to do something like that to a man. Humon's latest relationship chart shows that she seems to genuinely hate every character besides her parents. | |

He also lost his virginity to a black woman he looked up to as a mother and parental issues are a reason he hooked up with Duncan and Natalie. | |

Agent 300 will never let Agent 250 forget that his daughter almost bit off his man parts. Surprisingly, Agent 250 doesn't seem to mind hearing about his daughter's... conquests. | |

Niels for Agent 300, though at first it's ambiguous as to whether there's an actual attraction or whether they're simply trying to distract each other (see the description for Just a Little Push). After a few conversations with Thomas, 300 starts to realize that perhaps the flirtation between them isn't "normal" for a completely heterosexual male. Explicitly referred to here. | |

Freudian Excuse | |
Niels (Webcomic) / int_c868a42a | comment |
Freudian Excuse: Niels lost his virginity at a young age to a much older black woman whom he saw as a mother figure. As a result he grew up to have a particular taste for black people, as well as considering sex to be the ultimate form of familial love, hence why he murdered his pseudo-father figure mentor for not reciprocating his feelings. Humon has stated this could become an issue when Kiddo grows older. | |

Informed Ability: Humon states that 300 is actually very competent at his job, but gets distracted by Niels. His relationship with 250 actually helps because 250 doesn't get distracted, and 300 has an interest in keeping 250 safe. A violent interest. | |

Niels (Webcomic) / int_cad57012 | comment |
After growing sick of all the Draco-ing of rapist/child molester/cult leader Peter, Humon posted an image of him about to molest his daughter, to underline the fact that "He is not a nice person, no matter how funny he is." The backlash was incredible. Most of it was made of people asking how could she draw something so cruel. | |

Niels (Webcomic) / int_cb70651c | comment |
Maybe Magic, Maybe Mundane: Peter is tormented by a demon that only he can see. Whether or not he is real or just a hallucination is up for the reader to decide. It's been shown that other members of Peter's cult seem to see him too, and some even claim to have slept with him. Though Humon states that with all the images of him they have combined with their mental state, it is still far from conclusive. And it seems Jacob is definitely real, it's just a matter of whether he's real in the universe of Niels or not that's in question. | |

Breakout Character | |
Niels (Webcomic) / int_da0eeab5 | comment |
Breakout Character: Agent 250, who starred in several Niels comics by himself shortly after being introduced, and was the main focus in one of the longest continuous story lines so far. Jacob, the demon that Peter and his cult worship. Humon enjoys drawing him so much that the majority of drawings featuring him are completely unrelated to the Niels universe in any way. He and his girlfriend now star in their own webcomic, Manala Next Door. | |

Villainy Discretion Shot | |
Niels (Webcomic) / int_da909e61 | comment |
Villainy Discretion Shot: Almost always averted by Niels. In fact, most of the original pictures of him were eerie graphic drawings of him torturing or murdering innocent people. Though this is pretty much played straight with Peter, as the kind of evil he commits is just a little too graphic and sickening for both Humon and Deviantart to handle. | |

The Teapot Pose | |
Niels (Webcomic) / int_e3754802 | comment |
The Teapot Pose: In one strip, the new guy who was hired into Niels' crime syndicate is shown to have some very set mental representations on what a gay person should look and act like. He knows that Neils is bisexual; that is enough for him to see him as a male stripper: that is, have him wear a skimpy, pink outfit, along with makeup, jewelry, and one hand at his hip and the other raised and limp-wristed. When he finds out that the guy who hired him sleeps with Neils, his mental image of him instantly shifts into a variation of the same stereotype. | |

Niels (Webcomic) / int_fccd06b6 | comment |
Beware the Nice Ones: Agent 300 is mild-mannered and calm - Agent 250 even says that 300 doesn't know what to do with himself when he gets angry. But if someone (i.e. Niels) gets him really angry, he will break their arm, shoot them in the head with their own gun, and send half of their team to the hospital. Niels is an unfailingly polite and even charming young man who would happily torture, stalk, or kidnap you and/or go after your family if you did anything to bother him - or if he thought it would be entertaining. In a more harmless way, Robert is a Shrinking Violet... with a penchant for bondage and really dominating in bed. | |
