James is a rough-hearted, sensible 24-year-old who originated in the original unnamed comic. James and Doe both made their debut trespassing into Bumfunk with the intent to steal Sox for profit, only to soften up and stay to avoid punishment from both their employers and the Bumfunk residents. James acts as a foil to his coworker, Doe, who, throughout the comic series, softened, while James grew progressively hardened. James refuses to reveal his backstory, even when asked, leading us to believe he has some sort of trauma that led him to where he is now. James began as a nervous voice of reason, and since being exposed to the harshness of Bumfunk, grew more stern. Despite his grumpy demeanor around Doe, he does hold a solid amount of care towards her. James, based on his behavior around Layla, seems to hold a crush on her.
James is a 24-year-old male with long, red hair and a dark brown beanie with an arrow stabbed into it. He wears a dark brown sweater and grey sweatpants with snow shoes.
