comment
String Theory is a webcomic about the life of Dr. Herville Schtein, an abnormal scientist who descends into a life of supervillainy. Think if a Start of Darkness was the first book in a series that you read, and it starred someone who was a Jerkass Woobie scientist, and you've got the right idea.Set in an alternate timeline in the 2057-2060s where the Cuban missile crisis was never averted, the world in String Theory is recovering from a major war which split the world between capitalist and communist superpowers—with the scale tipped a little in the USSR's favor.Also, while String Theory is not R-rated, it nevertheless contains adult concepts and is written for adult sensibilities.Now has a character page.Not the same as the Danganronpa OC-insert fanfiction by the same name.

Foreshadowing
 String Theory (2009) (Webcomic) / int_1484dba1
comment
Foreshadowing: Schtein slowly obtaining, by natural and unrelated events, the hallmarks of a stereotypical mad scientist. The gloves, through his phobia. The cat, through the stupidity. The eyes, through the accident. Also foreshadowed with his controversial political opinions. And on the opposite end of the spectrum, Langstrom seems to be becoming a super hero. Scientist who was severely injured in an accident caused by an antagonistic colleague. Miraculous survival. Sudden obtainment of strange powers.

All There in the Manual: Schtein has a formspring account (now inactive), where he discusses a lot of his past including his divorce with Janet and relationship with Alice, weeks before it was really talked about in the main comic.

Teleportation with Drawbacks
 String Theory (2009) (Webcomic) / int_44c55e9d
comment
Teleportation with Drawbacks: Schtein (and Langstrom's rival division) is trying to build a functioning matter teleportation device. So far he has gone through a lot of guinea pigs. Later we find out that several functioning teleporters have been built, it was just the scale of the one's Schtein and Langstrom are working on that is giving them trouble.

Art Evolution: Of an unusually dramatic kind as the creator gets better. It starts off as zero background unshaded outlines and ends up as full color scenery porn.

comment
Technicolor Magic: Active Psychic Powers cause tendrils of light to float around the psychic and the target. Some characters have distinctive colours: Abel, the most powerful and experienced, has purple, whereas Schtein's are blood-red.

Jerkass
 String Theory (2009) (Webcomic) / int_eb8e4fa8
comment
Jerkass: Benjamin Langstrom and Schtein. It should be noted that Langstrom was civil (even cloyingly nice) to Schtein when they first met, until Schtein pissed him off. Schtein is definitely a Jerkass to everyone he meets; that's probably not the case for Langstrom. Drew MacManus. After pages of him beating and otherwise tormenting Schtein that lead up to a very disturbing rape threat, readers are actually rooting for Schtein to kill him.
