Megane means glasses, referring to the tan markings of fur around his eyes that makes him look like he's wearing glasses. Despite this, Hannah's crush on Dexter is short-lived when he feels queasy on a ride at the Ham-Ham Fun Park, she deems him a "wimp". However, Hannah was infatuated with him in Hannah is in Love! because he was so "sweet and caring", and she finds it charming how "sophisticated" Dexter is. Though Dexter admitted that he thought Hannah was pretty, he doesn't seem to have romantic feelings for her.

Bluntly put, Pashmina doesn't like either of them back but they still continue to fight for her affection (mostly through Seasons 1-4, after which, it seems to gradually be forgotten). When she does notice, though, she generally gets irritated by their arguing. They are also neighbors.ĭexter and Howdy are constantly fighting to win Pashmina's heart - who usually ignores them, or just doesn't notice. Their owners, Goldie and Curtis, reflect their friendship, fighting sometimes for the sake of rivalry, but at the end of the day are still best friends. They are still friends, however, as shown in episodes like The Reconciliation! and My Best Friend and make sure to protect each other if either is in trouble. Dexter can be petty about scolding Howdy due to their rivalry. In the English dub, Dexter's voice is nasally and geeky this is not so in the Japanese episodes.ĭexter and Howdy are frenemies they often fight over Pashmina, Howdy's “bad jokes”, and sometimes for no apparent reason. However, his glasses are actually just fur markings around his eyes - as he confirms in several pieces of media (such as in Hamtaro: Rainbow Rescue). He offered to make a club motto in Latin for the Ham-Hams when they first established the Clubhouse.ĭexter is always seen with his trademark tan "glasses" and his big, red bowtie. He has a crush on Pashmina - and often battles with his long-time best friend, Howdy, for her affection. He is a refined hamster who is rather smart. However, the fun that viewers came to expect of the show extends into the very DNA of comic books with jokes utilizing onomatopoeia.Dexter is owned by Curtis - an optometrist - and lives in a glasses store.

This looks very much like the animated series, as the styling of the characters and their setting are lifted directly from the show. Ryan Jampole takes penciling duties while Jeremy Colwell handles the colors. Additionally, not much is done to establish, or re-establish, the totality of Dexter’s world, which will probably see a lot of change in the issues to come. On the downside, while this will work perfectly for existing fans, those unfamiliar with the show will probably be left behind. When Dexter invents something, you know that Dee Dee will be around to destroy it, and it’s as funny as it is reassuringly familiar. This issue also follows an episode of Dexter’s Lab exactly as fans of the show might expect. Fridolfs even makes sure to exaggerate the spelling of certain words like “wooooman” to match how you’d expect Dexter to pronounce such words. From the first panel, you’ll hear Dexter’s accented voice and Dee Dee’s high-pitched one in each word balloon.
