Line 20:
* [[Art Evolution]]: So very much. Any strip which summarizes earlier events reveals this.
* [[Ascended Extra]]: meta-example: Xuanwu of ''[[Strange Candy]]'' started out as one of Shine's many fans, then co-wrote the Shine or Die arc with Erin and has shown up several times since, including the Eurekon storyline and the What's Up, Doc? (not to be confused with [[Bugs Bunny|What's up, Doc?]]) Sunday strips.
** In-story wise, {{spoiler|Sir Shelby Penwood appears to be getting a bigger role than he did in the manga, seeing as how he's now [[Doctor Who
** Ditto for Yumiko and Heinkel, who have gotten several long storylines fleshing out their characterization in ways [[Red Shirt|their manga versions]] never did.
* [[Author Appeal]]: ''Hellsing'' and, say, ''[[Witch Hunter Robin]]'' have a lot thematically in common; but a lot of the series, from ''Marimite'' to ''Madeline'', are just there because the author likes them, and made to fit in out of sheer willpower:
Line 77:
* [[Jigsaw Puzzle Plot]]: Weaves together plot points from all the major series included, plus a bunch of original twists
* [[Lighter and Softer]]: Oh holy shit yes.
* [[Mega Crossover]]: Far too many crossovers and cameos to even begin mentioning. But let's try! There's ''[[Read or Die (Anime)|Read or Die]]'', ''[[Victorian Romance Emma]]'', ''[[Madeline]]'', ''[[Witch Hunter Robin]]'', ''[[Mariasama ga Miteru (Light Novel)|Marimite]]'', ''[[Good Omens (Literature)|Good Omens]]'', and ''[[Revolutionary Girl Utena]]''. And [[Cameo]] of other series, such as [[Good Omens (Literature)|the Four]] [[The Sandman (Comic Book)|Horsemen]] as well as a slightly older-looking [[Calvin and Hobbes|Calvin, Susie and Candice]] in a recent strip. And in the current arc, [[Doctor Who
** In a sentence: Shine crosses Hellsing with everything you'd expect and a few things you didn't.
* {{spoiler|[[Mercy Kill]]: Walter and Girlycard killed a mortally wounded Jeeves rather than let him fall into the Nazis' hands (and Jeeves refused to be turned into a vampire.}}
Line 108:
* [[Shown Their Work]]: And how! Ranges from footnotes under her comics to [http://hellsing.comicgenesis.com/d/20060917.html an entire comic dedicated to it.]
* [[Sliding Scale of Fourth Wall Hardness]]: it can be broken for comedy value, as [http://hellsing.comicgenesis.com/d/20070805.html Integra explains]
* [[So Beautiful It's a Curse]]: [[Big Breasts, Big Deal|Seras on her figure]]; Pip insists that he can respect her as a person ''and'' enjoy her chest
* [[Split Personality]]: Yumiko and Yumie, {{spoiler|and all [http://hellsing.comicgenesis.com/d/20100307.html nine others] identified in the system}}, given much more backstory than in the original, where their splitting is just a plot device. May be a form of [[Author Appeal]], given some of Erin's [[United States of Tara|other fandoms]].
* [[Squee]]: One can hear a fangirl coming a mile away because they do this. The best way to get fangirls to let go is to make them do this so much they faint from sheer joy. Examples:
Line 133:
* [[Van Helsing Hate Crimes]]: especially when Integra and Enrico are debating the subject of vampires.
* [[Webcomic Time]]: Everything before the time travel storyline (published in 2006, taking place in 1997) has been hit by [[Retcon]], but after it things have started to advance. In 2008 the comic had made it into 1998, and [[Word of God]] states that Hellsing's main plot will take place in 1999 (comic time). It has also been lampshaded a few times by the characters, such as [http://hellsing.comicgenesis.com/d/20101101.html here]
* [[Wham! Episode]]: {{spoiler|Jeeves is working with Millennium. }}
** {{Then it turns out it's an i-Jin of Jeeves.}}
* [[Wholesome Crossdresser]]: Timothy {{spoiler|after becoming the [[Revolutionary Girl Utena|Rose Bride]]}}
Line 147:
* [[Gender Bender]]: Anderson and Pip have both been changed into teenage girls for this comic
* [[Squick]]: When [http://sailorhellsing.comicgenesis.com/d/20090916.html it's pointed out] that Integra's pin used to belong to her father, Sailor Ghoul asks if he used to [[Wholesome Crossdresser|wear a sailor suit]] too. The others try hard not to think about this.
* [[What Kind of Lame Power Is Heart, Anyway?]]: Sailor Ghoul has the amazing ability to think, though sadly this does not change her status as [[The Ditz]]. Still, for a ghoul still having a functional mind is pretty amazing. For a ghoul.
