Per the Ask for Explanations thread, it was agreed that the two characters don't look related and the bully in question may be a regular neighborhood bully rather than the victim's sibling. Pull?

Pull the current

It was suggested in that thread that we use a pic of Eddy's older brother bullying him from Ed, Edd n Eddy's Big Picture Show. I can't get the pic now cause I'm on mobile.

Has the same issues brought up for the current so [tdown]. They don't look all that alike and they're outdoors so nothing says it isn't just a random neighborhood bully.

David Nelson from Heartstopper maybe? I think a panel mentioning the two being brothers would help.

For any brainstormers, I think resemblance isn't necessary if there's an obvious "home environment" otherwise, buuuut barring that

7. [tup] Even if it wasn't spelled out (though it certainly helps), they also resemble each other as much as the limited art style allows for it.

7 [tup] the issue with the Heartstopper suggestion is Nick is David's Big Little Brother so it would look like a younger brother picking on an older one instead of the other way around.
