Line 10:
* '''CHEAT CODES ARE STILL ACTIVATED''' {{spoiler|*punches out Dr. Insano*}}
* The end of the "Top 15 Worst Moments of Countdown", when he manages to make the incredibly [[Narm|Narmy]] line "I'll kill you to death!" sound ''awesome''.
* "Hey, Pyramid Head? ''I liked The Butcher better.''"
* Linkara morphing for the first time onscreen.
** Hell, the entire fight with Mechakara was a massive Crowning Moment of Awesome. Complete with assistance from 90's Kid, Harvey Finevoice, Ninja Style Dancer, and Pollo, a brief struggle with Black Lantern Spoony, and Linkara using a MORPHER from Power Rangers, then fighting Mechakara with the [[Crowning Music of Awesome|Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers' music]] in the background. That was the stuff NERDGASMS are made of.
*** What about {{spoiler|Pollo paralyzing Mechakara long enough to let Linkara vaporize him?}}
*** "I'm back, baby!"
**** The whole thing could be a real-world crowner for Lewis, utilizing <s>[[Double Vision|Double]]</s> ''[[Double Vision|Triple]]'' [[Double Vision|Vision]] as well as some other, truly [[Badass]] special effects, and managing to make convincing scenes where he technically ''beats up himself''. Quite an achievement by [[Web Original]] standards.
* Pollo pwning Dr. Linksano towards the end of ''[[JLA: Act of God]]''.
* Quoting a long passage from the third canto of ''[[The Divine Comedy]]'' (the "All hope abandon, ye who enter in" bit), then saying, "Read a book, people!"
Line 55:
* Avoiding an [[Author Filibuster]] about the distastefulness of using rape as a plot device, instead directing viewers to someone he thinks is much better than him at discussing the issue.
* Linkara furiously giving his six cents on why [[One More Day]] is terrible, giving one of his most scathing (though entirely justified) rants to date, ending it with these choice words:
{{quote|''"[[Joe Quesada]]; [[Punctuated!
* The end of the 100th episode: {{spoiler|All Linkara's characters, plus almost everyone else from [[That Guy With The Glasses]], singing his theme song!}}
** Plus the opening credits, with a hard rock remix of the theme song playing over the covers of every comic he's reviewed.
*** Also, not indulging in the recent storyline, despite how obvious it would've been, being such an important episode.
* Lord Vyce. He is highly regarded as being intensely awesome and terrifying by the fans, but when you think about it, he's barely done anything! Yes, he kidnapped Linkara, attacked him with Shades, and sent the Vohrsoth after him, but the man himself has had two appearances and did very little in both. Lewis has managed to turn him into a fan favorite through hype and storylines. Congratulations, you're awesome, and we didn't even know it.
** Moreover, the only time Linksano has ever come off as legitimately creepy or threatening is when he described Lord Vyce before being [[Put on a Bus]] back to his home dimension, giving him a [[Awesome Moments|CMoA]] by proxy.
{{quote|''There are forces in [[The Multiverse]] far beyond anything you've ever dealt with. Ancient, mindless evils that fill in the cracks and eat dimensions just for a ''snack''. Monstrous deities and empires spanning Universe after Universe have risen and fallen in the span of forever! But there is still one individual, one being that they are all horrified of! When I saw him coming near my universe, I fled. [[Evil Laugh|Muhahahhahahha]]. Weep for your Universe, Linkara! Weep for all Universes! For Lord Vyce is coming! Hihihi. And ''all that he sees, he conquers!'' HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA!''}}
* From the first part of his October 2010 Halloween review, "Ash Williams vs. [[Silent Hill]]: Dead/Alive." Winner: Ash.
Line 76:
* Lewis wearing a fully equipped Green Ranger costume. Enough said.
** Followed by his ambushing Doug at a convention while wearing it, after Doug had been doing a mocking impression of him. The pop when he takes off the helmet is incredible.
*** All Lewis says is 'move' and Doug jumps seats immediately, looking scared. Now that's bad ass.
* The last third of the ''New Kids on the Block'' #4 review, done entirely in rhyme even when it stops being applicable.
* His [[What the Hell, Hero?]] to Uatu over the [[Esoteric Happy Ending]] of his teamup with Spider-Man.
* His wailing on [[The Nostalgia Critic|Douchey McNitpick]] for his commentary during his Top 15 Screw Ups of Atop the Fourth Wall.
** Heck it was even awesomer at the beginning: Rather than get pissed at Douchey, Linkara turns his [[Insane Troll Logic]] back at him and actually manages to confuse Douchey enough to shut him up.
* At the end of his first Cry For Justice Review, he starts a count down: V-MINUS 42, counting down to the final battle with Lord Vyce. For each new review it goes down by seven- therefore, the final battle will be on February 14, 2011. The awesome comes at the end of his [[Care Bears]] #13 review: {{spoiler|Each time the graphic is shown before, it is usually accompanied by creepy, ominous music. However, at the end of this review Linkara figures out Vyce's weakness and proudly proclaims that he knows how to beat Vyce, and triumphant music plays through the credits, and over the V-MINUS 14 graphic, canceling out the creepy music}}.
* He's been nominated for Most Inspiring Geek on the Shorty Awards on Twitter!
Line 103:
*** {{spoiler|It took a well-played [[Batman Gambit]] and planning with Linksano [[The Mole]] to get Vyce off his ship and take him down. The planning that went into it and showing that Linkara is, was and always will be [[Crazy Prepared]] makes it a [[Crowning Moment of Awesome]].}}
** Linkara verbally attacking Vyce {{spoiler|for insulting Liz in his house.}}
** Angry Joe and the Joe Army {{spoiler|defeating the Shades and seizing control of Vyce's ship. Complete with Joe using his force lightning powers.}}
{{quote|'''Joe:''' ''(via communicator)'' Is that Lord Vyce? ''(fires gun)'' Tell him he's an ASSHOLE for me!
'''Vyce:''' Who is that?
Line 149:
* [http://dw-cosplay.livejournal.com/1073185.html Cosplaying] as the [[Doctor Who|Seventh Doctor]] (the one he first saw as a kid) for his second live show.
* Linkara seems to have started a habit of destroying his villains' motivations, getting Linksano to do a [[Heel Face Turn]] by pointing out how much ''work'' ruling the world would be. And then he still threatens to send him to Lord Vyce if he goes back to his old ways, and is darn intimidating while doing it.
* Gushing over the first issue of [[Captain America (comics)]], especially the iconic cover of Cap punching Hitler (in fact, his only real issue with the comic is that this never actually happens in any of the stories). And finishing it off with the USO montage from ''[[Captain America: The First Avenger]]'', which he calls one of the greatest sequences in movie history.
* The revised version of the Electric Tale of Pikachu review has Linkara and {{spoiler|Missingno., who is currently in 90's Kid's form}} not just in the same shot, but Linkara actually walks ''around'' him seamlessly as he taunts him. It stands out as probably the most complex and striking visual effect in the entire history of the show.
** Bonus awesome moment for [[Phelous]] for completing the effect in ''one day'' when Linkara had been working on it for some time.
* After the news came in that he and Liz had broken up, Linkara swore on Twitter that he'd come down ''hard'' on any of his fans who insulted her, as they remain on good terms.
* After Mechakara starts taking over Comicron 1:
{{quote|"Comicron 1 has enough destructive capability to level the Earth. Its sensors were designed to track every variety of lifeforms it could find. If Mechakara gains control of it, he will kill every living thing he can find. I will ''not'' allow that to happen. This is ''my'' ship, and I will destroy it before I let anything like Mechakara possess it!"}}
* Pollo’s crowning moment of awesome has got to be his speech on how he will never end up like Mechakara and how he’ll always be Linkara’s friend. Seriously, that whole speech was just made of awesome.
