The Wheelchair is a character from Sweet Cuppin' Cakes that is voiced by Bubs. For some reason, he really really wants to annihilate Eh! Steve. Strong Bad seems to think that Eh! Steve deserves it, though. Also, he likes to elongate the last word of his sentences when he's angry. Example: "I'll get you, Eh! Steve, if it's the last thing I doooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!"
He first appeared in crazy cartoon. He showed up again in kids' book, as an easter egg: "Some people are talkin' wheel chairs. Eh Steve will get what he deserves".
Brooklyn Accent
The Wheelchair sometimes sports a Brooklyn accent, as evidenced by his pronunciation of the word boiled ("berled haliday cabbage") in Decemberween Sweet Cuppin' Cakes. Ironically, Strong Bad also chooses to affect a Brooklyn accent when he pronounces words like "soivice" in lackey; but the now-common replacement of an "oi" sound with "er" (e.g., "terlet") began as an overcompensation for the often-parodied tendency of Brooklynites to pronounce "er" as "oi." ("supoib" for superb, "Toity-toid" for Thirty-third street, or even "Ninja Toitles.")
The Wheelchair may be based on the work of John Callahan, a quadriplegic cartoonist from Portland, Oregon who often satirizes the disabled and other controversial subjects.
