This brings an interesting question to mind.
We know it takes 1 Mrs. True to take down Everett. How many average people would it take? If they all banded together in this moment and took him on, what would the casualty rates look like?
Power scaling of Everett is something I've never considered before...
We need a baseline so we can take this to the logical conclusion, can Everett True beat Goku?
.... Hulk?
Everett is at least a minor toon force user, so normal power scaling doesn't apply. He can beat anyone or be beaten by anyone depending on which is funnier.
Mrs. True can usually overpower him because he's usually being a jerk to her, but when she's in the wrong she's usually cowed by him.
The entire city's population, all five boroughs, would fall like wheat before him. It might take a week, since he would have to keep replacing his umbrella.
Not how my last experience in NYC was
Was in Manhattan a couple years ago, it wasn't so bad. Crosswalks are where people get pushy. Most people try to keep to themselves.
On the other hand it is the only place I have ever witnessed someone getting on their car horn at an ambulance
People who don't live here in NYC imagine it's constantly like times square on new years eve. It's far less than that.
Also. Everett is clearly a Philly man, as he should be.
FWIW the cartoonist Condo lived in Ohio (Toledo, Cleveland, and Findlay) from 1882 to some time after 1910:
A place to appreciate the twentieth century comic character Everett True of "The Outbursts of Everett True." Feel free to check out the sticky.
