Please post your thoughts/discussion under the appropriate heading (create a new one of neither below seem to fit), marking it with an appropriate sub-heading (or sub-sub-heading, if this theory expands off of another). Or, if you wish to discuss these theories without editing, you can do so in the comments! An editor will attempt to sum it up. If you wish to have a theory added that is not yours, please ask the person who originally came up with it if it is alright to share, and provide credit when you do. As for your own ideas, you can (but don't have to) sign them with your own credit. And lastly, try to keep things within the realm of plausibility when you can, and leave the shitposting for tumblr.
Analysis/Meta[]
Tarot card representation[]
His card is officially titled "The Magician", but according to Mod, his pose also references "The Hanged Man".[1] It goes without saying both of these will likely play strongly into his role in the coming pages.
The Hanged Man[]
This card can represent self-sacrifice, martyrdom, or a misleading appearance of helplessness. (via Quapleulia)
Theories/Predictions/Headcanon[]
RGB was never a real human[]
The blonde-haired man, occasionally drawn by ModMad and wearing RGB's clothes, is not, in fact, RGB. RGB as we know him never existed in the real world, but was instead truly just a "character", created by the blonde actor as his stage persona. The means by which RGB "died", seeming to be a clothes-iron to the face, may not have been entirely lethal for the actor, but certainly ended his career, which left his persona with no way to be Realized into the real world and thus killing him. The reason he still "exists" at all is that the inspiration remained, or perhaps the audience has by some means kept him alive through memory.
RGB will die by the end of the comic[]
He's the deuteragonist, but not the hero. A coward, who has been shown to grow attached. It is of this user's guess that in order to save the world, save The Hero, or complete his own personal arc, he must come to willingly accept his own demise.
RGB's real/original name is Rob[]
The flashback scenes where he's called by name are edited in a way that the name looks like RGB, but also like something else.[2][3] It's the clearest on page 433, with two appearances of "Rob".[4] (It's possible, though, that these memories are not those of RGB, but of someone else.)
