User blog comment:DabbidyDab/Gavin's Role in RWBY (if any)/@comment-4830106-20130729201619/@comment-13499046-20130730135709

I find it hard to believe Gavin wouldn't be a comic relief character... but anything is possible.

I think Gavin's voice is hilarious, and from the way the RWBY panel were laughing I imagine they do too.
