Character Analysis: Boomstick

 


Background


The Co-host of Death battle, along with the character Wizard. Unlike Wiz, Boomstick is a bit of a redneck. He lives in a shack/trailer in the middle of nowhere, hunts his own food, and is fairly uncultured. He was raised by a single mother, whom he claimed died in one episode, but who was later shown to be alive.

One of his big hang ups is his father, who apparently ran out on him and his mom when he was a child. Throughout his life he’s cycled through several step dads. Later seasons heavily imply that his father is Sarge from the web series Red vs Blue.

  • DB ep 150 This entire ep is about finding Boomstick’s dad, and it’s again implied it’s Sarge


Boomstick so has an ex wife who left him for another man, and who he regularly describes as evil, terrible, ETC. He supposedly has to pay her alimony checks. Later episodes also imply he’s had multiple ex-wives.
