Sinfest Reboot: The Seven Deadly Sins

NSFWQuestion / Discussion

I've been thinking of a potential reboot for Sinfest where each of the main characters is a representation of one of the seven deadly sins. Each sin would be that characters main flaw and comedy would result from that flaw. This doesn't mean they would be limited to one sin, but whatever sin they represent is the sin they'll show the most. The prideful can still be greedy and the lustful can still show envy. I would also make them all furries because i like drawing furries

Pride

Monique would represent Pride. She would be similar to how she was pre-sisterhood, as an attention whore with a love for fashion and an activist streak. Her activism is noble and well-intention, but she has a terrible habit of making them all about her. She also tries to deny that she loves slick, because her pride makes Slick seem like he beneath her. She would be a tiger.

Lust

Slick would represents Lust. Instead of trying to be a pimp he would try to be a stereotypical Alpha Male. He tries to be the ideal of Masculinity to get with the ladies which ultimately doesn't work, because hes just a dick who doesn't view woman as people. He would see Monique as prize to be won, but eventually begins to love her for real, though constantly denies it. Slick would also be the twin brother of Xanthe since they look so alike. It would also be a good contrast since Slick is a misogynist and Xanthe is a misandrist. He would either be a skunk or badger.

Gluttony

Squigley would represent Gluttony. I think Squigley is perfect as is. Hes the perfect representation of gluttony as he is constantly consuming junk food, booze, weed and porn through out most the comic.

Wrath

Xanthe would represent Wrath. Honestly I wouldn't change her much at least in personality, just make it so her terrible actions blow up in her face way more often. She would be the kind of person who always resorts to violence first and will not comprise. She would constantly team up with awful people because they hate the same people she does. She would start with a team of allies that slowly grows smaller and smaller because she is terrible to be around. She would be a badger

Sloth

I don't really have a character in mind for who would represent Sloth so I would make a new character. The character wouldn't be slothful in the traditional way of being lazy, but they would more of person who let others make decisions for them and just goes along with other plans. I'm thinking they would be a friend of Xanthe who constantly goes along with her plans despite thinking her plans are bad.

Greed

I don't know whether to use a character who is similar to the devil or Seymour for greed. The devil would be good for greed since hes the kind of person who has everything he could want yet he is all alone and empty inside. He wouldn't be the devil exactly, because the devil shouldn't be tied to a single sin, instead he would be a suspiciously similar substitute. I could also go with someone like Seymour who is extremely materialistic.

Envy

I'm thinking of using Miko to represent Envy. She would try to be exactly like Monique or who ever she looks up to. Maybe they could even be a new character who is constantly changing to be someone else. Wanting to be anyone but themselves.

Demons

Demons would be more side characters. The demons would each represent a single sin who try to make the main characters sin more. The only exception is the devil who represents all of the sin.

Virtues

Unfortunately I couldn't fit Criminy into any of the main sins since he doesn't really fit any of them. This made me think of maybe making characters represent the virtues for characters like Criminy and Fuchsia, but I've written a lot already so I might do a sequel to this with the virtues.

Anyways tell me what you guys think. Anything I could improve on, add or change?
