There may be more John Fillis. He'll be a much more prominent character in Volume 3. As to why it's spelled with an 'f'... It's because it's the name of a real person. When we were making the animation, I said I wanted the monster to have a 'normal sounding name'. My brother picked up a picture from a newspaper of a fat guy with a moustache called "John Fillis". I thought it was amusing, so I used it. I may scan the image in and post it up at some point...

Cheese's effect on Alien is the same as almost all foods; he'll eat it.

Here he is, folks...
