The Purple-Shirted Eye Stabber is a supporting antagonist on Cyanide and Happiness.

As his name suggests, he usually uses knives to stab random peoples’ eyes, for no apparent reason. He appears in various comics, and a Cyanide and Happiness short called "Return of the Purple Shirted-Eye Stabber", "Serial Killer" and "Serial Killer 2".

In the animated series, he is voiced by Rob DenBleyker.

Personality

The Purple-Shirted Eye Stabber is a psychopathic and murderous maniac. He is shown to be highly dangerous and sadistic, taking great pleasure in thrusting his knives into random people's eyes so as to occasionally wound or kill. Despite his insane nature, he is shown to be capable of putting on a charming façade, like many serial killers, as seen when he kindly offers a lady his jacket when she is cold to lower her guard before attacking her.

Biography

In Return of the Purple-Shirted Eye Stabber

The short starts with two boys fleeing from an unseen figure which one refers to as the Purple-Shirted Eye Stabber, and one of them is stabbed in the eye with a knife by the figure, literary out of nowhere.

It then pans out to show a couple watching it as a movie on the TV, to which the boyfriend says the movie is stupid, but they are frightened when the power goes out. When the power comes back on, a repair man arrives and says he fixed it, but he is then stabbed by the killer, who then presumably attacks the couple.

It pans out again revealing to still be part of the other film. Two movie snobs insult the film's self-reference technique. The unnamed killer appears to have been also watching the movie himself, and he angrily says "well f*** guys, lets see you do better!" and kills them both by throwing knives into their eyes.

However, this reveals to be footage shown by a lawyer at Eye-Stabber's murder trial. So Purple-Shirt is sentenced to the electric chair. The assumed killer reveals to be a fake regardless, and and the Judge is apparently the Eye Stabber, so he stabs himself in the eye out of guilt.

This is revealed to be part of yet another movie, everyone cheers, but the "real" Purple-Shirted eye stabbed cuts though the movie screen and stabs at the camera ending the video (and presumably killing the entire crowd).

In Serial Killer

The short begins with a young woman dressed in red out in the cold, but a bald man comes and tells him to wear his vest, once the young woman put on the vest, the bald man is revealed to be the Purple-Shirted Eye Stabber, who pulls his knife and kills the young woman dressed in red by stabbing her eye.

Despite having stabbed his first victim, he sees another young woman dressed in blue, the Purple-Shirted Eye Stabber pulls out his two knives, he throws both his knife on the ground, the young woman looks at them, confused. The Purple-Shirted Eye Stabber arrives and pushes the young woman dressed in blue towards the two knives, impaling her eyes. The Purple-Shirted Eye Stabber enters the forest and sees a large group of people standing in a path.

The Eye Stabber brutally kills the entire group, one by one, by stabbing their eyes in inventive, and increasingly sadistic ways. Once his goal is complete, the Purple Shirted Eye-Stabber sees one last person standing in a container and gleefully stabs his eye, but in reality, he entered a police truck and is stopped by two police officers who quickly close the door, trapping the Purple-Shirted Eye Stabber and putting an end to his reign of terror for good. They then congratulate themselves for catching the murderer and saving lives, ignoring the large number of corpses with their eyes gouged out.

In Serial Killer 2

The short begins with a detective encouraging a woman to pick the murderer who tried to kill her out of a line-up (she has an eyepatch, so it is implied she is a survivor of the eye stabber's rampage). The detective says if she can just point to the killer, they will go straight to jail without a trial.

The eye stabber gives in to impulse and produces several knives, attacking the other men in the line-up, before maniacally playing in their blood after enucleating them. Despite witnessing the slaughter, the woman says she can't remember what her attacker looked like because it was dark out. The detective becomes visibly annoyed right before the woman says she thinks she remembers. She prepares to point just as the eye stabber throws a knife into her good eye, which disorients her, causing her to turn and point at the detective, who is then immediately arrested as the eye stabber is free to go because he wasn't technically identified in the line-up.
