Homsar Winner?

The idea of Homsar may not have just originated from bad spelling. There is a noticeable resemblance between Homsar and Homeschool Winner. Homsar may or may not have evolved from this character.

From: Homsar

Arguments for:

  • The Sketchbook sketch is not proof that Homsar's look wasn't partially based on Homeschool Winner. Those sketches were clearly abandoned, so they might have gone with a HSW-inspired design instead.
  • Same color scheme, both are Homestar-like characters, both were named after attempts to say "Homestar"; they seem selfsame.

Arguments against:

  • The idea of Homsar evolving from Homeschool Winner isn't true, we have seen early sketches of Homsar in the Sketchbook.
  • The resemblence is debatable, and "may or may not" entries aren't strong enough to be Fun Facts.
  • This is just speculation.
  • Homeschool Winner is just one of many Homestar characters to have been dropped over time. Homsar, on the other hand, was a one-shot gag used for a Strong Bad Email (and they even made it seem as if he had been killed off), but then they ended up bringing him back and making him a main character. I don't think the two had anything to do with each other.

Additional comments:

  • Homsar may be the reason TBC isn't bringing back Homeschool, but I don't think Homsar "came" from Homeschool.
