""Told you I'd bring it up.""
 * Adaptive Ability:
 * AI Is a Crapshoot:
 * The "Zero Patrol" review.
 * Pollo is apparently offended by the stereotype, as he requests a review that showcases a good robot.
 * In the Star Trek II the Wrath of Khan reviews, Linkara
 * All There in The Script: The name of The Heartless helping Mechakara in his Gaslighting (Dolorem) is only given in the credits of the episode.
 * Alternate Reality Game: A minor example. As seen here, has started commenting anonymously on the blog
 * On the other hand, the garbled, anonymous comments apparently left  during that arc were done by fans, and Linkara hadn't actually intended it to spiral into a full ARG (the only hand he had in it were the subliminal messages during the credits of several videos). He notes in his Electric Tale of Pikachu commentary that he really wished he had thought of it himself.
 * Alternate Universe:
 * The Warrior #1 review with Dr. Insano has them switching realities to one where the two are played by each others' actors, by different actors, by stuffed animals, where they face the other way, where they wear their clothes the other way, where everyone is a terrible actor, where the segment is run by The Nostalgia Critic, and so on. See also Cosmic Retcon below.
 * 'Mechakara' turned out to be
 * The same thing happens with the Warrior #2 and #3 review..
 * Lord Vyce comes from one of these and deals with numerous others. In addition, Ensign Munro and the poorly animated Vohrsoth transport from their universe to Linkara's via an SOS beacon.
 * In the Star Trek #2 Iron Liz is transported into a Mirror Universe where Linkara is evil and has a goatee, an obvious homage to the mirror-verse in Star Trek.
 * Always Someone Better: Dr. Linksano is rather dismayed to find out that Dr. Insano has achieved far more than he has as a mad scientist.
 * And Then What?: Asks  this about  .   doesn't seem to have ever considered this before.
 * Then in the stinger to All-American Comics #16, he asks Linksano this about ruling the world, specifically how he'll deal with economics, politics, legislation, rebellions, all that nasty stuff.
 * Anti-Magic: The current arc seems to hinge around all of the magic around Linkara being suppressed, both the magic gun, and the spell he used to make his collection of merchandise really work. However, the trophies he's acquired from previous adventures still work...
 * Applied Phlebotinum: Dr. Insano magically does everything with SCIENCE. Linkara himself makes his toy collection work with magic.
 * Arc Words: "All that he sees, he conquers."
 * "A piece of the world is missing."
 * Arc Welding: Lewis' side project Let's Play of Star Trek Voyager: Elite Force gets folded into the Lord Vyce arc after he reviews the game's tie-in comic. Eventually, both previous Big Bads are involved in the Lord Vyce arc.
 * Arm Cannon: The Minigun he uses to take down the second Pyramid Head.
 * Artifact of Doom:
 * Awful Truth:
 * Back From the Dead:
 * Oh, it gets even better.
 * Badass Boast: Lord Vyce's "All that I see, I conquer!" Other people have already taken up the phrase to describe him.
 * Bat Deduction: How does Linkara get his Eureka Moment on the Entity's identity? The word "heavy."
 * Battle Trophy: Linkara keeps Mechakara's dismembered right hand on his shelf. Bad idea,
 * Berserk Button:
 * Big Bad: In order of appearance:
 * Dr. Insano was Linkara's first arch nemesis, but following an epic defeat in the Warrior #1 review, he disappeared somewhat and the Mechakara Saga kicked in, but now he's apparently back...Bitches.
 * Mechakara was an evil android duplicate of Linkara from an Alternate Universe with nefarious plans, . Mechakara traveled to our world when Doctor Insano breached dimensions with his Hypertime device, and was ultimately defeated when Linkara used a Power Rangers Morpher.
 * Dr. Linksano tried to take this spot, and failed, his final attempt during the Warrior #2-3 review. He had since up and abandoned his plan to be the dominant Big Bad when he discovered that the even BIGGER Big Bad Lord Vyce was approaching our universe. He ditched our reality, but not before warning Linkara.
 * Lord Vyce, whose imminent arrival sent Linksano fleeing, and all that he sees, he conquers.
 * As of Planet of the Symbiotes
 * Mechakara once more, only this time in Pollo's WIP 2.0 body.
 * Revealed to actually be
 * Big Damn Heroes: In the episode that ends the Mechakara arc-- Then Pollo shows up then to borrow something.
 * Bilingual Bonus:
 * Black Eyes of Evil: Taken to an even worse level.  has
 * Break the Cutie: The backstory that is
 * Breather Episode: Breather arc, actually; his stated purpose for the Dr. Linksano arc was to just give the viewers a bit of fun after the comparatively serious and suspenseful Mechakara saga. Every arc features several episodes with no connection to it so the reviews themselves can remain the show's focus. The big exception was the "Linkara Lost" mini-arc, which straddles six episodes in a row.
 * After the Vyce arc ended with eight arc episodes in a row, Linkara stated that he'd be taking a break from any storylines for a few months.
 * The "Comic Book Advertisements" episode was something of a breather as well, as he had just finished reviewing Rise of Arsenal.
 * Brick Joke:
 * Remember how Mechakara forced Insano to cut his hair?
 * The entire Mechakara saga is basically the result of one of these:
 * The "Comic Book Advertisements" episode was something of a breather as well, as he had just finished reviewing Rise of Arsenal.
 * Brick Joke:
 * Remember how Mechakara forced Insano to cut his hair?
 * The entire Mechakara saga is basically the result of one of these:

"Linkara: ...is that a robot hand?"
 * One that crosses onto another show: Spoony's Party Mania video revealed that one of the Schlumper brothers turned into that universe's Dr. Insano. Eventually we find out.
 * In another overlap with Spoony, it turns out Linkara was the one who.
 * Linkara is transported 30 years into the future and meets the older version of himself in the same video that begins the Mechakara saga. More than a year later, we see the older Linkara wonder if he should have told his younger self about the gun.
 * This one is even more Brick Joke-y than that it turns out, as of the final Silent Hill Dead/Alive review. Possibly a candidate for most depressing Brick Joke ever.
 * A sequence from  has a payoff a hundred and thirteen episodes later.
 * Remember when 90s Kid suggested a Nirvana reunion with Kurt Cobain's body being animated by slayer chicks? And how Linkara declared there was something seriously wrong with him?
 * Well, of course.
 * Bullying a Dragon:
 * Call Back: "I'm distracting you so she can stab you." He first said this to a Shade in the Ewoks comic review, then to in the Doctor Who Classics #7 review.
 * Cassandra Truth:
 * Now reversed, with
 * Cerebus Retcon:
 * Played with during the "15 Things Wrong With Identity Crisis" review, in which Linkara says that he brutally and mercilessly murdered a thief that broke into his house, took the watch that would become the Miller Time watch, and buried the corpse in Nevada, then reveals that obviously it never happened, explains the true origins of the watch (it was a gift for his 13th birthday), and that he was just giving an example of a bad Cerebus Retcon that would've made his Miller Time videos much less funny to watch.
 * Played straight in the 'Spiderman Team-up: Saturday Night Live' review. Up to this point, Linkara had been using many different toys, memorabilia, and other various franchise-related objects as if they were the actual real things, with no real explanation given.
 * Cerebus Syndrome: Big-time, starting with the Mechakara arc.
 * Hilarious in Hindsight: Back in 2008 Spoony, when discussing the nascent Video Review Show genre, used Atop the Fourth Wall as an example of such a show that had no extraneous Drop in Character or storyline, just focused on straightforward reviews. Since then it's leapt to the opposite end of that scale.
 * Chekhov's Armoury: In addition to the below-mentioned guns, Linkara is constantly expanding his "Arsenal of Freedom" with loads of different weapons, ready to be used whenever needed.
 * Chekhov's Gun:
 * Linkara found a working Pokéball in his review of a World of Warcraft Comic, which he later used to That becomes one itself in.
 * There were a dozen or so with payoffs in the Mechakara battle. The Power Rangers Morpher and the various weapons he picked up over the length of his show were the most obvious, but it also saw the payoffs for things like Black Lantern Spoony and Dr. Insano's haircut. In the commentary for said video he even admits that was a deliberate attempt to evoke this trope.
 * When  attacks during the review for the Zeo Rangers, Linkara attacks a
 * Chekhov's Skill: Inverted, as it's Mechakara's lack of understanding of magic that leads him
 * Continuity Snarl: His 2010 preview video includes his future intro to the Silent Hill Dead Alive review. It's in a different location than the actual review due to his moving over the summer (which he obviously wouldn't have known he would do in January).
 * Cosmic Retcon: Linkara's attempt to bring Spoony back to life by punching the fabric of reality instead gave Donna Troy a new origin story... and turned Dr. Insano into a man. Later, in his review of Mickey Mantle #2, a couple of baseball players pounding against the walls of reality makes Linkara switch places with Ensign Munro, turns '90s Kid into 60s Kid, and gives Harvey Finevoice his own show.
 * Crossover: Angry Joe and his Army help Linkara against
 * Technically speaking, anything with Vyce and The Entity could be considered a crossover with
 * Curb Stomp Battle:
 * Not to mention that
 * Cut Himself Shaving:
 * Dark Action Girl:.
 * : With nothing more than
 * : Just as  Linkara actually managed to.
 * Doppelganger: Mechakara. The only difference between them is that Mechakara has a robotic hand is a Terminator-style cyborg and is really, really creepy.
 * An interview has confirmed the "Alien Harvey Finevoice" (from the Silent Hill alternate endings) is a separate character from normal Harvey Finevoice, who would very much like to do a duet with his double.
 * Double Vision: During the conclusion of the Mechakara story, Linkara, 90's Kid, and Ninja Style Dancer all appear at the same time to . Harvey Finevoice also appears, but not at the same time.
 * They all appear at the end of the Doctor Who Classics review to help.
 * Dwindling Party: The Entity arc, highlighted in The Twilight Zone #9.
 * Early-Bird Cameo: That's NOT the Ghost of Christmas Future.


 * Lord Vyce's voice is first heard long before he is properly introduced as the new Big Bad, in Sultry Teenage Super Foxes #2.
 * Ditto for the following Big Bad, the Entity.
 * Easter Egg: In Darker Image #1: One of the messages is  Plus, from the one after the credits:
 * Eldritch Abomination: The Entity
 * Empathic Weapon:
 * Epic Fail: When trying to christen his new spaceship. "BREAK, DAMN YOU!"
 * This becomes Nightmare Fuel when you find out what sailors thought would happen if the bottle didn't break. Apparently it was such bad luck that if it didn't, no sailor would possibly board it or work on the ship, and it would have to be dismantled and rebuilt. Also, the Entity is here.
 * Eureka Moment: After reviewing "Care Bears #13", Linkara grumpily states how the comic didn't help cheer him up (since he was still emotionally messed up from ), and proceeds to leave the futon... only to realize that      .


 * At the end of the Spider-Man: Planet of the Symbiotes review, Linkara tells 90s Kid that the Entity has taken everyone on Earth except the two of them. 90s Kid's response of "Heavy!" is what makes Linkara realize that
 * Evil Laugh:.
 * Evil Twin: Mechakara, a Terminator-like duplicate of Linkara who stalks him for several months. Eventually revealed to be.
 * Eviler Than Thou:
 * After Dr. Insano's defeat in the Adamantium Rage/Warrior #1 crossover,  he was largely relegated to Harmless Villain status while more and more focus was placed on the enigmatic and far more menacing Mechakara, whom even Dr. Insano described as "really mean."
 * According to Linksano.
 * Fate Worse Than Death: The Mechakara story concludes with the titular character being  and then the   Stinger
 * Foreshadowing:
 * During a visit to the future in the Superman vs. Terminator review, a huge gun is visible in the background. We later see Linkara get his hands on it in the Cable #1 review, and
 * The opening to the review of Athena #1 shows Lewis fiddling with the Zeonizer before quickly hiding it and telling the audience it is "part of a little side project." He is sonic-ing it at the beginning of the X-Men #1 review.
 * One of the flashing text in the EXTREME bit in the Darker Image says His Vyce is conquest
 * In the same episode, after the credits: "I didn't misspell his name."
 * A cross-series piece of Foreshadowing: In Part 2 of Spoony's review of Final Fantasy X, Dr. Insano enters Spoony's room and starts to say "Bad news, I think Mechakara just-" before squicking out at Spoony singing "A Whole New World".
 * Second one from Spoony, Insano comes in asking if anyone's knows where  was because it wasn't where he parked it.
 * At the end of his 100th episode, he listed a bunch of things there would be more of, including "More ". This later came to pass in his review of Power Rangers ZEO #1, where at the end of the credits he says "I told you there'd be more  ".
 * Two key videos during the Vyce arc feature an odd buzzing sound after Linkara defeats someone.
 * At the end of his Silent Hill Dead/Alive review . Fast forward to the current arc and apparently  . Judging by his review of Game Boy #1 the rest was relevant, though exactly how remains to be seen.
 * When Linksano was giving Linkara the speech building up to the reveal of Lord Vyce's name, he mentions "ancient, mindless evils that fill in the cracks and eat dimensions for a snack". Gee, does that sound familiar?
 * The Entity has been described as a glitch in reality, something that should never even exist. The Planet of the Symbiotes review finally reveals that
 * The reason that Planet of the Symbiotes was chosen as the penultimate episode of the Entity arc was to foreshadow.
 * In the Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan #3 review, after Mechakara hijacks Pollo's new body Linkara tells Pollo "He's not you." and "You're nothing like him.".
 * Back in the Superman: Distant Fires review, Linkara is checking up on preparations his various characters are making before they face Lord Vyce again, when 90's Kid informs him that he would need "a magic wand or something" to upgrade his BFG any further. Linkara simply responds by saying "Let me worry about that". It has been recently revealed that
 * Freeze Frame Bonus: In Power Rangers ZEO #1, when, one of the billboards in the city is showing Obscurus Lupa's Buffy the Vampire Slayer title card.
 * In the credits of the Captain America: Return of the Asthma Monster review.
 * In the same vein as above, in the credits of the NBComics #1 review,.
 * In the Mightily Murdered Power Ringers, it says
 * In the credits of Kamandi at Earth's End #1, not only does it say, but it even
 * In the review of US-1 #2, it says.
 * In Twilight Zone #9 it says
 * In the review of Superman & the TRS 80 Whiz Kids: The Computers that Saved Metropolis, it says
 * While orinigaly looking for a comic to review in his Pokémon: The Electric Tale of Pikachu review, he rejects Marville, saying that he's saving it for next year. Sure enough, Marville #1 is his first review of the following year.
 * In the review of Superman & the TRS 80 Whiz Kids: The Computers that Saved Metropolis, it says
 * While orinigaly looking for a comic to review in his Pokémon: The Electric Tale of Pikachu review, he rejects Marville, saying that he's saving it for next year. Sure enough, Marville #1 is his first review of the following year.

"Linkara: YOU! TALK! TOO! MUCH! DURING! A! FIGHT! SCENE!"
 * Fridge Brilliance: In-universe, Linkara realizes that
 * From Nobody to Nightmare:
 * Gaslighting:
 * Giggling Villain: Dr. Insano.
 * The Heartless:
 * Heel Face Turn: Linkara manages to talk Linksano into doing one when he points out exactly why taking over the world isn't all it's cracked up to be.
 * Henshin Hero: His empowered form is his hat and jacket. He even puts them on via morpher.
 * With a more powerful form accessed via sonic-screwdriver-modified Zeonizer.
 * Iron Liz gets her own morphed form in the Doctor Who Classics review.
 * In "Mightily Murdered Power Ringers #1", Linkara
 * Heroic BSOD:
 * At the end of the Cry for Justice review
 * This continues into Care Bears #13.
 * Happens literally after seeing that Brain Drain (and the completely missing how The Thing's character goes) was written by former Marvel editor-in-chief Tom Defalco (who should have some idea of The Thing's characterization).
 * Here We Go Again: The Entity storyline ends with with a scene of That Dude in The Suede . Of course, this was probably just a throwaway joke and not an indication that will be coming back.
 * He's Back: Dr Insano after the Mechakara saga ended.
 * Hoist By His Own Petard: When Linkara is on the receiving end of a Curb Stomp Battle from Lord Vyce, the only way he finds that harms Vyce even slightly is to use Vyce's own weapon against him.
 * Humiliation Conga:
 * I Shall Taunt You:
 * Idiot Ball:
 * Immune to Bullets: The Shades seem immune/resistant to non-magic weapons, they take an entire clip of Harvey Finevoice's Tommygun unfazed, but go down rather quick to magic blades and the Magic Gun.
 * Subverted when
 * Inexplicably Awesome: He has access to technology from Star Trek, Doctor Who, and Power Rangers (among other things), and how he obtained any of it was left unexplained for a long time.
 * Jerkass Genie: Wish Kids magical glove grants Linkara's wish to remove NBComics from existence, only to replace it with a (going by his reaction) far' worse comic.
 * Jigsaw Puzzle Plot: The various appearances of "Mechakara," a robot double of Linkara who typically shows up at the end of a review to set up part of an impending plan against him. Lewis has claimed that every appearance of Mechakara contains some kind of clue to his identity or his goal, and challenged fans to figure it out before the big final showdown.
 * Killer Robot: Mechakara
 * Knight of Cerebus: Mechakara. Before him, any "plot" was based on random Dr. Insano gags and "Previously On..." parodies; ever since... well, "All that he sees, he conquers".
 * Knight Templar/Well-Intentioned Extremist:
 * Legion of Doom: The various alternate versions of Doctor Insano, who contemplate teaming up and taking over reality.
 * Look Behind You!: "I'm distracting you so she can stab you."
 * Loophole Abuse: Linkara has said he will not review Manga (due to dedicated Manga reviewers appearing on the That Guy With the Glasses after his introduction video), which didn't stop him from reviewing a Chinese comic.
 * Looping Lines: When Linkara, all his lines are dubbed in, presumably due to the outdoor filming conditions obscuring his voice.
 * Madness Mantra: A creepy version in the sinister book he found about the Entity...an entire page is just filled with jagged writing repeating the words "I AM NEVER SHOULD" over and over again. It's...unsettling
 * The next page has "EVERYBODY IS GONE" with "GONE" repeated randomly about the page.
 * Magic Versus Science: Magic is something Mechakara cannot fight against; he came to our dimension to get the power to fight magic.
 * While in the Mirror Universe
 * The Man Behind the Man: "Mr. T #2 (AP Comics)"'s "Previously On..." shows Andrew Dickman being manipulated into stealing all the other title card artist's jobs by Dr. Insano.
 * Man in White:
 * Mirror Universe: Iron Liz is accidentally swapped with her mirror universe counterpart in the Star Trek #2 review. Linkara is megalomaniacal and adores Liefeld, Pollo looks like Tom Servo, alternate Liz loves Dungeons and Dragons 4th Edition, and  Apart from that everything seems much the same.
 * Mood Whiplash: At the end of the Cry for Justice #5-7 review, the final shot of leads directly into Lesley Gore's "It's My Party".
 * The Backstreet Project review, Linkara reviews a comic with the rather silly idea of a boyband becoming superheroes and plays the Weird Al Yankovic song eBay in the credits. And then
 * The Twilight Zone comic review introduces a new character, with a hilarious shot of Lewis in a clown nose and rainbow wig, standing in silent dignity.
 * Mundane Fantastic: Linkara fights off evil scientists and a robot version of himself, travels to alternate universes to fight villains who are trying to ward off even STRONGER enemies, has a magic gun and multiple Star Trek / Doctor Who gadgets...and it's a review show? He even states this in the Doctor Who Classics #7 review.
 * : As of Spider-Man: Planet of the Symbiotes with the exception of Linkara
 * Never Trust a Trailer: The 2010 trailer made it seem like Ensign Munro, Dr. Linksano, and Pyramid Head would be appearing in the Mechakara conclusion. Those scenes did, however, appear in later videos, since that trailer was for the entire year.
 * No-Holds-Barred Beatdown:
 * Oh Crap:
 * Linksano: Oh no... He's coming....HE'S COMING!
 * The look on Mechakara's face when.
 * The Twilight Zone #9 -.
 * Silent Hill: Paint it Black -
 * Silent Hill: Among the Damned -
 * Silent Hill: The Grinning Man -
 * Spider Man: Planet of the Symbiotes -
 * Ontological Inertia: The injuries Linkara sustained from his fight with Mechakara disappeared when he used the Morpher to power up. The injuries returned when he powered down.
 * Papa Wolf: Don't say anything bad about Iron Liz to his face either; "That woman stands alongside me and fights for this universe with as much bravery and courage as any champion. You're in MY house,, and you WILL show her respect!"
 * Paranoia Fuel: The Entity. From what we know about it so far it seems like the Lovecraftian love child of the Silence and the Slender Man and it is ALWAYS watching Linkara. And it can make people dissapear from the world with ease and it's not clear WHAT it's doing to them
 * Powered By a Forsaken Child: The story at the beginning of each Silent Hill Dead/Alive video, about a girl who was only born so her parents could power a superweapon by torturing her. Which turns out to be !
 * Punctuated Pounding: And again against Mechakara in the Power Rangers ZEO #1 review:
 * Ontological Inertia: The injuries Linkara sustained from his fight with Mechakara disappeared when he used the Morpher to power up. The injuries returned when he powered down.
 * Papa Wolf: Don't say anything bad about Iron Liz to his face either; "That woman stands alongside me and fights for this universe with as much bravery and courage as any champion. You're in MY house,, and you WILL show her respect!"

 * Punctuated Pounding: And again against Mechakara in the Power Rangers ZEO #1 review:

""Be quiet, you ugly bag of meat! Every time your fat maw opens, it sounds like a cat is dying!! How anyone can stand to listen to your lisping, SHRIEKING wails is beyond my comprehension!!""
 * Rant-Inducing Slight:
 * Used in the MMPR review. has been exasperated by Linkara for the past eight months through plans being inadvertently interrupted or getting the wrong results, yet he has remained relatively calm... but it is Linkara's voice that finally gets him to start yelling.

"Linkara:"
 * Red Herring: He clearly wanted the viewers to think The Entity was  Though the Entity does refer to itself as , so there seems to have been a little truth in with the misdirection.
 * Reed Richards Is Useless: Linkara has created the most sophisticated AI ever, with countless implications for nearly every field of science, yet he only uses it to maintain his video review show while he's busy saving the world.
 * "The Reason You Suck" Speech:
 * Revive Kills Zombie: Utilized against Black Lantern Spoony in the Blackest Night clip.
 * Robot Me: Mechakara.
 * Robotic Psychopath: Mechakara.
 * Rule of Cool: The entire storyline. He's an Internet comic reviewer - who is also apparently the "champion" of his planet, using gadgets from Star Trek, Doctor Who, and Power Rangers alongside his troupe of lookalikes to fight mad scientists, evil robots and aliens, including . One commenter said it best: "You sir are a god among nerds."
 * Sequel Hook:
 * After Mechakara's defeat, all questions about his identity and goals are answered... but who sabotaged the Continuity Alarm?
 * The stinger at the end of Secret Orgins Month:

"''And the moral of the story is... "Don't make fun of insane weirdos who track U.F.O.s with empty boxes and divining rods because they may end up on a superfluous and pointless alien ship." (Beat) ... Wait, what?""
 * Shut UP, Hannibal: He gets quite a fine one in the conclusion of the Vyce arc.
 * YOU! TALK! TOO! MUCH! DURING! A! FIGHT SCENE!
 * Sitcom Arch Nemesis: The Linkara/Dr. Insano relationship sometimes takes on shades of this. He has never really been threatening in the same way as Mechakara. Dr. Linksano is pretty much a parody of this trope, as well as Unknown Rival.
 * Space Whale Aesop: At the very end of the Lord Vyce Arc finale:

"Oh, it is on now!"
 * Super Mode:
 * Take a Third Option:
 * Talking the Monster To Death: His eventual method for  is to point out   and to convince.
 * Tempting Fate:
 * This Means War: At the end of his ''Street Fighter #1 review he finds . His response?

""Let's do the time warp again!""
 * Time Dissonance: Lampshaded.

"Linkara: Okay, Mechakara. Surrender and you won't get hurt.
 * Timey-Wimey Ball: A rip in hypertime allows Linkara to go off to fix things by reviewing Warrior #4, then return to the exact same time he left and keep doing reviews (this was actually done due to the unpredictability of when the Warrior review would be put up).
 * Tomato Surprise:
 * Took a Level In Badass: Pollo against in JLA Act of God Part 3.
 * Trailers Always Spoil: Both trailers for the 2009 and 2010 does show some details that should not be there...
 * Transformation Sequence: In an emergency (such as the showdown with Big Bad Mechakara) Linkara can use his Power Rangers morpher to transform into an Internet Reviewer.
 * Compared with simply going to the closet and putting on his hat and coat, this method comes with enhanced strength and a laser pistol.
 * Later
 * Later still
 * True Companions: While it was vaguely hinted at beforehand, the "Linkara Lost" arc showed just how tight knit Linkara and his allies are.
 * Vichy Earth: What Lord Vyce.
 * Villains Never Lie: Subverted. Mechakara very much is lying when he implies that.
 * Vitriolic Best Buds: Linkara and Pollo snark at each other a lot, and Pollo is far from above manipulating Linkara to get stuff he wants, but any time either is in danger, the other will do everything in his power to protect and help.
 * We Could Have Avoided All This: At the beginning of the Wrath of Khan three-parter, Linkara dismisses Nimue's alert, as before this he's always had time to do a whole comic review before the storyline material. But this time
 * Wham! Episode: Cry for Justice #5-7:
 * Planet of the Symbiotes:
 * Wham! Line:
 * In the first Silent Hill Dead/Alive video,
 * Lord Vyce:
 * Linkara:
 * And before that,
 * From the end of the "Youngblood #4" review:



"Harvey Finevoice: Well, kid, what are you gonna do?
 * What Do You Mean It's Not Awesome?: In the face of  return, we have this exchange:

Linkara: The only thing I can do. Review a comic book."


 * What Happened to The Mouse?: At the beginning of the Cool World review with Marz Gurl, Linkara says he needs help to fight Dr. Insano. It's never brought up again, nor does it fit in continuity with the Wolverine: Adamantium Rage and Warrior reviews from around the same time. Of course, Insano doesn't have a continuity as such.
 * After the Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan review, Iron Liz stops appearing on the show. The real life reason is that Linkara and Liz are no longer in a relationship, but there's no in-story explanation given.
 * Where Does He Get All Those Wonderful Toys?:
 * Where Does He Get All Those Wonderful Toys?:
