I like to think that Spamton had a dimmer glow than the rest of the Addisons even during his Addison era, which allowed him to open his eyes.

Played around with The Addisons some more. I like to make them a bit more "ad-like" and predatory. like ads tend to be irl!

I imagine that dead pixels are seen as very shameful / cursed amongst Darkners. Especially in Cyber City, since if one pixel is dead, the whole screen's got to be replaced. He's a threat! A mistake!
