The prince of plain, the master of mundane!

Mr. Bland is a character from the original book, which started the Homestar Runner body of work. In the book, he entered the Strongest Man in the World contest. He has a white, rounded head similar in shape to Strong Sad's, white arms ending in four-fingered hands, and white legs ending in shoe-shaped feet similar to Homestar Runner's. He is typically seen in black shorts and a brown short-sleeved shirt. His arms seem to spread sideways in default as opposed to resting on his side. According to Strong Bad, Mr. Bland was one of the most popular characters until he was crushed by a falling Bubs' Concession Stand along with Señor (seen in origins).

In Strongest Man in the World, a Flash remake of the original book, he was given a voice for the first time. For over a year, the Homestar Runner Wiki incorrectly reported that Mr. Bland's voice in Strongest Man in the World was provided by Mike Chapman. This was corrected after Matt Chapman revealed that this was a mistake during the toon's commentary on the DVD Everything Else, Volume 3.
