- One morning, while waking up in a dumpster, he discovered a cheap guitar under a pile of half-burned Beatles records. He immediately tracked down blues legend Silky Snakebite, and shined his shoes every day for a month in exchange for guitar lessons. He took well to the blues, but, after seeing the Kingston Trio getting comped for free drinks in a local bar, he headed for New York City, and a possible career in mind-numbing, hokey folk singing.

- Folk rock musician and former member of Buffalo Springfield and member of Crosby, Stills, and Nash. Former lover of Judy Collins.
- Stephen Stills is the lead singer, guitarist, and "talent" of Sex Bob-omb. He is 22 (23 in book 4 onward) years old and went to university with Scott Pilgrim at the University of Toronto, where he played in the band Kid Chameleon with Scott, Envy Adams, and others. He is currently employed at The Happy Avocado vegetarian restaurant as a cook and later helps Scott get a job there as a dish-washer. Stephen was in a tumultuous relationship with Julie Powers, who at one point suspects that he and Knives Chau may have a mutual attraction to one another, though he breaks up with Julie in Scott Pilgrim vs. the Universe and had been dating Joseph for a while by Scott Pilgrim's Finest Hour. Whilst typically laconic, Stephen is known for rare fits of neurosis, (typically over the quality of his band's music compared to others), as well as irritability (usually over Scott's absentmindedness). He is named after the musician Stephen Stills of the group Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young. For reasons unknown, Scott always refers to him by his full name.
- One morning, while waking up in a dumpster, he discovered a cheap guitar under a pile of half-burned Beatles records. He immediately tracked down blues legend Silky Snakebite, and shined his shoes every day for a month in exchange for guitar lessons. He took well to the blues, but, after seeing the Kingston Trio getting comped for free drinks in a local bar, he headed for New York City, and a possible career in mind-numbing, hokey folk singing. Once settled in the Big Apple, Stephen got a job at the famed folk club The Bitter Den, handing Bob Dylan his harmonica holder when he went on stage. Unable to cope with irritating New York accents, Stills split for L.A., longing for that Beatles rip-off sound newly spun by California hucksters The Byrds. Along the way, Stills made a side trip to Canada, where he witnessed a performing Sasquatch named Neil Young. Awed by his ability to sing country music while howling feedback rang from his out-of-tune guitar, Stills advised his new friend to steal his band's equipment, trade it for a hearse full of groupies, and join him in L.A. To hedge his bet, Stills wrote to fellow folk singer Richie Furay, telling him he'd won the lottery, and to come fast before he spent all the money.
