The Head has glasses even thicker than [[Daria]]'s, completely obscuring his eyes; his vision must be extremely poor. He wears a haircut with long bangs that partially cover the right side of his face, and a T-shirt depicting the MTV cartoon character called [[The Head (TV series)|''The Head'']]. His fanon nickname comes from this T-shirt.

Line 11:
At the assembly at the end of the episode, Daria and [[Jane]] are required to make a speech. The Head stands up and applauds before they even begin, showing apparent support for his fellow self-esteem sufferers.
 
After this episode he appears infrequently as a backgrounder. "[[Quinn the Brain]]" shows him sitting with [[https://dariawiki.org/wiki/Backgrounder#Nerds |the nerds]] at lunch, implying that he's their friend. In "[[The Story of D]]" he is one of the boys who seem interested in the [[Fashion Club]]'s newsletter. For the most part, though, he simply fills out the crowd.
 
A few odd appearances do exist, however. In both "[[Lane Miserables]]" and "[[Psycho Therapy]]," this character's face appeared on the side of milk cartons, a practice once done for children who had gone missing. No explanation for this is ever provided, as he is seen in school after both incidents. Also, in "[[Prize Fighters]]," he can be seen in ''two different places'' during the eating contest, similar to the character [[Shaggy]].
