Wallace Wells is Scott Pilgrim's gay roommate, they met in college. Although he and Scott are just friends, they share a double bed because they can't afford two beds. Although, Wallace does show sexual interest in Scott on several occasions. When their landlord gives them notice to move out, Wallace encourages Scott to take his relationship with Ramona to the next level of maturity; later he reveals that he has already signed a lease with his boyfriend Mobile so he is not available to be Scott's roommate even if Scott can't mature. His character is based on real-life Beguiling Manager Chris Butcher, who was Bryan Lee O'Malley's former roommate.
