Ne Comic Strips

I think Bill Watterson is introverted Alpha.




Calvin & Hobbes has a very Alpha feel to it. Lots of "good ol fashioned X vs new fangledy Y" and small town Americana vibe vs Calvin's Ne fantasies. Watterson's notoriously secretive nature reminds me of TiSi Miyazaki, who's also famous for "cartoon" media that addresses childhood, wonder, and nostalgia.

Calvin himself seems TiNe-Ne to me, with subconscious/negative Fe.


Ji resistance/stubbornness:


Fe fetishism + Ne heavy:

Love those comics Auburn ^^ so very 'outsider', speculative and philosophically deep in the way Ti (esp. Ti+Ne) tends to think.

^ I think you may indeed be onto something, Zweilous . It seems often authors encapsulate some of their own personality in their main characters. Calvin comes across quite like a 'Thinker' TiNe or NeTi. And from those pictures Watterson does indeed look Alpha! hmm.. perhaps he is another of our kind o.o

Not to overlook the discussion on 'reviser' and 'conductor' (I agree that they're good terms to be used generally), but I've something that belongs in this thread Sarah's Scribbles.. I find these comics quite relatable in some ways, I think they very much express the experiences of a (female) JiNe ennatype 4/5.



That last one reminds me of Aurora in the video recently posted in the Mind of Ne thread XD

To me, conductor and reviser are actually the biggest dichotomy. That seems to be the first thing I can spot.


Though Pe will sometimes look like Je to me, I think conductor and reviser is a very and obvious real thing.

It's a useful term for classification as well. One of our biggest weaknesses (when relating to the audience) is how hard it is to refer to groups of types, since we don't use codes like MBTI or Socionics. Especially those types that are really similar, like NeTi and TiNe. MBTI can just say NTP, but we have "Ti + Ne" which suggests some kind of order and is really user unfriendly. Keeping around terms like "reviser alpha" seems necessary to me in order to group two types that can be essentially the same thing at times.
