Tropes A-D [[Atop the Fourth Wall/Tropes A To D|HERE!]]<br />
Tropes E-P [[Atop the Fourth Wall/Tropes E To P|HERE!]]<br />
Line 6:
----
* [[Quip to Black]]: In the ''Pitt'' #1 review after rattling off a string of cop show and movie cliches:
{{quote|
* [[Rage Quit]]:
{{quote|
* [[Rapid-Fire "No"]]: His review of "Mr. T Comics #2" had two rather impressive examples when he finds that Mr. T gets knocked out by [[Meaningful Name|"Stare Roy,"]] a man pumped up on steroids.
* [[A Rare Sentence]]:
{{quote|
* [[Real Life Writes the Plot]]: According to Lewis, Linksano was introduced so he would not have to keep asking Spoony to do segments for him and adding to his own workload.
** Part of the reason for {{spoiler|Pollo's abduction by the Entity}} was because Lewis wished to retire the Pollo prop and build a new one.
Line 17:
* [[Rearrange the Song]]: Starting with ''Maximum Clonage'', his theme song was given a fuller orchestration and better production.
* [[Record Needle Scratch]]: In part two of Linkara's review of ''Countdown''.
{{quote|
''''90s Kid:''' *Nirvana plays* Duuuuuude, I- wait. *[[Record Needle Scratch]]* Did you just vaporize a pregnant chick? Dude, that- that's not cool, man. That's not cool. }}
** In the ending to his [[Silent Hill]] review, to hilarious ends.
Line 25:
* [[Relax-O-Vision]]: Linkara gives us a break from the terrible artwork of ''[[The Dark Knight Strikes Again]] Part 3'' with a clip of a cute little kitten.
* [[Repeating So the Audience Can Hear]]: Linkara [[Lampshade Hanging|lampshades]] Commissioner Gordon's use of this trope in his review of ''Detective Comics No. 27''.
{{quote|
* [[Rhymes
* [[Robot Buddy]]: Pollo.
* [[Rock Beats Laser]]: Called on ''Amazons Attack'' for taking the trope way too far.
* [[Rooting for
* [[Rule of Cool]]: He really don't care about physics if something really awesome is happening, like two giant robots fighting each other.
* [[Rule of Funny]]: During "Secret Origins Month", he says repeatedly that he is judging these decades-old comics based on modern standards just because it is funny, and [[Fair for Its Day|they were good for their time.]] This is also why he does the entire last fourth of his New Kids on the Block review in rhyme.
{{quote|
* [[Running Gag]]: Eight.
** [[Hollywood Science|Of course! Don't you know anything about science?]]
** The evil of Ancient Egypt *cue [[Star Wars|Imperial March]]* has become one.
** Him having a meltdown to [[The Wurzels]] "Combine Harvester".
** A [[Doctor Who
** Youngblood's Disease: The curious disease that plagues superheroes where their musculature becomes implausibly disproportionate and their eyes dissolve into featureless white voids.
** Sometimes when a character does something stupid, he has [[Patton]] say "...you [[Magnificent Bastard]], I read your book!"
Line 43:
** Issues of the Image series [[Objective Five]] appears constantly in the [[Title Sequence]] as well as several 'comic pile' scenes throughout the series, yet Linkara did not get to review an issue yet.
** Batman's hatred of rock music.
** "Only a [[Spider
** "Great continuity!"
** "[[Cry for Justice|And together, we could]] ''[[Cry for Justice|be]]'' [[Cry for Justice|justice]]!"
* [[Sanity Slippage Song]]:
** In some of the earlier episodes, Linkara used "Combine Harvester" by The Wurzels this way. The song itself is not about someone going insane, but it plays whenever ''Linkara's'' sanity starts to slip, such as at the end of the ''Doom's IV'' and ''Amazons Attack'' reviews. Up until ''Ultimatum #3-4'', however, it hadn't been used since ''Maximum Clonage''.
** As of the ''[[Marville]]'' #2 review, {{spoiler|"Forgetting You" from ''[[Manos:
* [[Saying Sound Effects Out Loud]]: 90's Kid did this during his review of ''Freak Force''. He actually read the sound effects out loud and even summarized the battle using nothing but sound effects.
* [[Schedule Slip]]: Linkara has made a [[Running Gag]] out of the continued delays in writing and publishing issue 2 of ''Revolution of the Mask''. His actual reviews avert this and he manages to turn out new ones very consistently, updating once per week since ''Godzilla vs. Barkley'' (his ninth episode), almost always on Monday. So much so that Lee from Still Gaming pointed out that Linkara was the only [[That Guy With
* [[Screaming At Squick]]: At a guy dreaming he has his head on [[
* [[Screw This, I'm Outta Here]]: Attempts this in ''The Dark Knight Strikes Again'' Part 3. He attempts this ''in text form'' in his text review [http://atopfourthwall.blogspot.com/2008/10/web-of-spider-man-122-part-1-of-3.html\] of ''Web of Spider-Man'' #122.
{{quote|
''*Tries to run away but is forced back by his promise to recap the three comics.*'' }}
** He attempts to leave his review of ''Superman At Earth's End'', but he comes back, concluding...
{{quote|
* [[Sean Connery Is About to Shoot You]]: Harvey Finevoice points this out about the cover of ''Anita Blake: The Laughing Corpse'' <nowiki>#1</nowiki>.
* [[Selective Obliviousness]]: Still appears to be baffled as to Dr. Insano's true identity. {{spoiler|After stealing Neutro from Dr. Insano, he remarks offhandedly that Insano parked it behind Spoony's house, but seemed to be dismissing this as Dr. Insano just being careless.}}
Line 62:
** Parodies his own [[Schedule Slip]] in his ''Superman vs. The Terminator'' review, where his self-published comic ''Revolution of the Mask'' has still not come out with a third issue 30 years from now.
** The [http://i150.photobucket.com/albums/s102/Linkara/New%20Guardians-2/NG-2-3.jpg caption] of his text review of ''New Guardians'' #2 [http://atopfourthwall.blogspot.com/2008/05/new-guardians-2.html\]:
{{quote|
'''Linkara:''' Wait a second, how come it takes ''three months'' to do a review of a 24-page comic?! }}
** In ''Chain Gang War'' #1 Iron Liz reveals that the notes he left for her include a conspiracy theory that rambles for thirty pages about how ''[[One More Day]]'' is connected with ''[[Cry for Justice]]''.
Line 69:
* [[Set Right What Once Went Wrong]]: Linkara arrives 30 years into his own future and is horrified to discover that his future self ''still'' reviews bad comics, ''still'' lives in his parents' basement, and [[Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking|has lost his hat]]. Linkara proclaims that he will go back and change everything, and when he leaves the timeline does indeed change... {{spoiler|but the only real change is that he has his hat back.}}
* [[Shameless Self Promoter]]: Linkara occasionally does this in his reviews to promote his own comic, Revolution of the Mask. However, at Power Morphicon he was trying not to draw any attention away from the actual stars of the convention and when someone else in the crowd at the ''Time Force'' panel drew attention to him he was mortified.
* [[Shaped Like Itself]]: Linkara says the worst moment of Countdown is the entirety of Countdown. Also, "[[JLA: Act of God
* [[Ship Tease]]: With [[
* [[Shocking Swerve]]: Who is the master mind behind ''Amazons Attack''? [[Memetic Mutation|GRANNY GOODNESS!!!]]
* [[Shoe Phone]]: Linkara parodies ''U.S. 1's'' silver dollar remote control by mentioning he will show us how to stick a TV remote inside of a quarter and a gun inside of a nickel. The ''[[James Bond Jr
* [[Shout
* [[Shown Their Work]]: Quite evident when discussing comic history, or when he points out an egregious error made by the writers of a certain issue. In his [[Captain Planet and
* [[Shut UP, Hannibal]]:
{{quote|
** Linkara once flung a magnet at Cable to get him to stop his awful, ellipses-ridden self-narration.
* [[Sincerity Mode]]: His sudden [[Mood Whiplash]] on [[Cry for Justice]] #5 through #7 (in response to {{spoiler|Lian Harper getting offed for no good reason}}) drives the point home on just how serious he is.
Line 82:
* [[Slow No]]:
** Uncanny X-Men #423. [[Sarcasm Mode|"OH MY GOD! ANGELO IS DEAD!]] NO! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! WHY, CRUEL WORLD, WHY DI- wait, who's Angelo?"
** And in his very first review — (Adjective-less) ''Spider-Man'' #56 — when he realizes that the Gwen Stacy clone is going to dissolve into goop. In his later commentary about his early work (where he jokes about his terrible lighting and slow line delivery back then), he says that a slow-mo [[Big No]] is ''always'' funny.
* [[Small Name, Big Ego]]: The character of Linkara has a fairly inflated ego, with his bitching at his fans for their requests and having an annoyed cameo when [[Diamanda Hagan]] said he was not sexy. (Out of character, of course, Lewis is a [[Mean Character, Nice Actor|sweetie]].)
* [[Smoking Is Cool]]: Harvey Finevoice, although...
{{quote|
'''Harvey:''' Shut up! }}
* [[So Bad It's Good]]: [[In-Universe|As Linkara says]], Snowflame is either the worst villain ever created or the ''awesomest'' villain ever created. He seems to have a soft spot for this trope, treating these occasions as highlights of the comics he reviews. As far as Linkara is concerned, [[Brute Force]] is the "epitome" of [[So Bad It's Good]].
Line 93:
* [[Something Completely Different]]:
** "Ninja-style dancing".
** "We now interrupt our regularly scheduled piece of crap comic to show a bit from ''[[Monty Python and
** Harvey Finevoice and 90s Kid are definitely not the easily-frustrated analytical comic book nerd type, as you could probably tell from their guest reviews of ''Anita Blake: The Laughing Corpse'' #1 and #2 and ''Freak Force'' #1. Liz, while a lot closer in reviewing style to Linkara, is still definitely not "Linkara with boobs".
* [[Space Is Cold]]: In his review for the Kool-Aid comic Linkara commented that the Kool-Aid Man, as a glass container filled with liquid, would freeze in space. [[Internet Backdraft|After the somewhat insistant comments from his fans]] he admitted in his "Top 15 Mistakes" video that this was an error, and then went on to give a scientific explanation for the sublimation of liquids to gas in a vacuum.
Line 100:
* [[Spider Sense]]:
** Invoked in his ''Zero Patrol'' #1 review: when one of the characters [[Straw Feminist|is calling another a chauvinist for no good reason]], Linkara says "I gotta say, my feminist senses are not tingling with that one."
** In the Action Comics #593 review, the villain and the porn producer are talking about the possibility of making a Superman exploitation porn film - Linkara reacts by saying that [[
* [[Squick]]: Linkara's in-universe reaction in ''Ultimates 3 #1 and #2'' about how Quicksilver and the Scarlet Witch are officially a couple... who are also still [[Twincest]] [[Brother-Sister Incest|brother and sister]].
{{quote|
* [[Stating the Simple Solution]]: Frequently finds himself doing this.
** In ''Amazons Attack'' when Artemis and Phillipus are constantly debating on what to do about an obviously insane Hippolyta: "Here's an idea: Stab your crazy queen in the head, assume command and act like Amazons!!!!!!"
Line 113:
* [[Stealth Pun]]: "Pollo" is Spanish for "chicken"...so in other words Linkara's [[Robot Buddy]] is a [[Robot Chicken]].
* [[The Stinger]]: A usual feature in his videos.
* [[Strangled
* [[Stuffed Into the Fridge]]: He was NOT happy about this happening to Lian Harper in ''[[Cry for Justice]]''.
* [[Stupidest Thing
{{quote|
** "Holy War" is then topped by the goal of the villain in ''Future Five'', whose goal is essentially to stop kids from going to college by planting agents to stay stuff about how college is not necessary, making himself the smartest man in the world.
*** Even ''that'' is eventually topped in ''Brain Drain'', in which Dr. Doom's plan is to enhance his intelligence with stolen knowledge... taken from ''high schoolers''.
*** And then Doom ''again'' tops it in ''Ultimates 3 / Ultimatum'': He had the Scarlet Witch murdered and started a robot war that would also kill Quicksilver but ''not'' Magneto so Magneto would declare a war on humans that Doom would somehow would come out on top of in the end. And then ''that'' was topped in ''Return of the Asthma Monster'' with the monster's plan to infect everyone in the world with asthma.
{{quote|
* [[Stunned Silence]]: The world trade center damage in ''Cable #1'' left him horrified. He then decided to [[Change the Uncomfortable Subject]].
* [[Subverted Catchphrase]]: He's basically made it a running gag to subvert "Because poor literacy is kewl!" by swapping "kewl" for another word or phrase.
Line 129:
* [[Take Our Word for It]]: Used word-for-word at the start of the ''[[Manimal]]'' comic review; he says he bought the comic off some guy he met in the elevator, then adds this trope because the hotel won't let them film outside their rooms.
* [[Take That]]:
** In the review of Pitt #1, he notes of the motorcycle gang in the opening of the comic, "[[Yu-Gi-Oh!
** In ''Sultry Teenage Super-Foxes #1'' he suggests that an alchemy machine could make Hardee's into edible food.
** In the ''Act of God'' review, he brings up Bill's speech about Superman from ''[[Kill Bill]] Vol. 2'', then dismisses it with "Well, that's a load of crap."
** He actually invoked this trope towards ''himself'' at [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LX5EqneuZa0&feature=related Youmacon 2009.] Though he was 90's Kid at the time.
** In his Silent Hill: Dead/Alive review, he makes one towards L.A.
** In ''[[Spider
{{quote|
** "New Genesis is idyllic, peaceful, and good. Apokolips is basically [[New Jersey]]." (He did add a "Just kidding, New Jersey" caption afterward, but at least one NJ resident commented that the zinger was perfectly acceptable.)
** The third part of his {{spoiler|April Fools'}} triple feature, where Linkara did a rather thorough parody of [[
** In ''Sonic: Live'', when Robotnik is gloating about how sick and twisted he is, Linkara suggests that he's going to force his hostages to play [[Sonic the Hedgehog (2006
** From the ''Silent Hill: Dying Inside'' review: "What has two heads, one mouth and no brains?" "Ooh! [[Michael Moore]]!"
* [[Talking Is a Free Action]]: Mocked in ''Sonic: Live''. When Robotnik has [[The Load|a couple kids held hostage]], Sonic responds that [[Super Speed|he's fast enough]] to rescue the kids before Robotnik's Swatbots can fire, and Robotnik counters by [[Card-Carrying Villain|gloating about how evil he is.]] Linkara shows us how the exchange ''should've'' gone after that:
{{quote|
'''Linkara(as Robotnik)''': *shifts uncomfortably* ...so you have. }}
* [[Techno Babble]]: Willing to call comics out for it, but also willing to use it in his videos, especially when spoken by Dr. Insano or Linksano.
Line 150:
* [[Theme Initials]]: How awesome a coincidence is it that a [[Big Name Fan]] comic book reviewer happens to have the initials "L.L", which are so famously associated with [[Superman]]? (Bonus: He's also a big Superman fan.)
* [[Theme Tune Cameo]]: Ever since getting his own theme song he is prone to humming or singing a few lines behind the scenes.
* [[There Is No Kill Like Overkill]]: Pointed out in his review of Spider-Man, [[Storm]], and [[Luke Cage, Hero for Hire|Cage]]. We already have Spider-Man and Luke Cage working to get the track star to stop smoking, and Spider-Man decides that they need a mega powerful member of the X-Men who can bring a massive storm down on your head to help them out too. As he pointed out, "Geez, overkill much, Spidey?!"
* [[There Was a Door]]:
** Linkara gets steadily more enraged by the Kool-Aid Man's apparent need to destroy a barrier every time he enters the scene in ''Adventures of the Kool-Aid Man''.
{{quote|
** In a crossover review of the ''Alone in the Dark'' movie with Spoony and Nostalgia Critic, Jesse Ventura's character kicks a door down and then crashes through a window.
{{quote|
* [[They Changed It, Now It Sucks]]: While many criticized the ''[[Watchmen (
* [[They Wasted a Perfectly Good Plot]]: Several in-universe invocations of comics he believes are better in theory than practice.
** Linkara provides the page quote in reference to ''Bearded Idiot: At Earth's End'', which is a story about how Superman fought clones of [[Adolf Hitler]] in the future. Despite the interesting conflict that this idea presented the final result was the first comic to actually be [[Kill It
** In his review of ''[[JLA
** In his review of "Law and Order'' he mentioned that, upon hearing the title, he thought it should have been about "Zombie Lenny Briscoe and Detective Goren. [[They Fight Crime]]!"
* [[This Is Gonna Suck]]:
Line 167:
** "It's MAGIC, bitch!"
** "Because I am [[Transformers|Optimus Prime]]... bitch!"
* [[This Is Wrong
* [[Title Drop]] : "Help me set bad comics on fire from Atop the Fourth Wall!"
** Also occurs in his crossover with [[Bad Movie Beatdown

'''Linkara''': Don't worry - we're atop it!
'''Audience''': [[[Collective Groan]]]
'''Caption''': Channel Awesome would like to apologise for [[Incredibly Lame Pun|that pun]]. The writer has been flogged for his sins }}
* [[Title Sequence]]: ''Atop the Fourth Wall'' has an opening sequence composed of assorted clips from previous reviews combined with [[Lock and Load Montage|video of Linkara putting on his signature clothing and preparing for the review]]. There have been three montages created for the sequence, with the replacement using updated and newer clips that were created in the time since the first montage was produced. The sequence includes a theme-tune composed specifically for the series by Vincent E.L. and background graphics by NagyMarci. Throughout the sequence numerous comics are visible, primarily bad comics that are reviewed and featured on the show, but occasionally it will feature portions of Linkara's house that are not normally seen in the show, including his personal collection of comics (Presumably ''good'' comics). The three series displayed cover-to-camera and easily identifiable are ''[[Infinite Crisis]]'', ''[[The Avengers (Comic Book)|The Avengers]]'' and ''[[Booster Gold]]'' (Presumably the collection of Booster Gold's first series that Linkara mentioned in his ''Act of God'' review).
Line 178:
* [[Totally Radical]]: [[Parodied Trope]] with '90s Kid.
* [[Tranquil Fury]]: He does this in his review of ''Justice League: Cry For Justice'', regarding {{spoiler|[[Stuffed Into the Fridge|Lian Harpers death.]]}} It's... unsettling.
* [[Trekkie]]: Has a large collection of various Starfleet uniforms, which he wears whenever he reviews something ''[[
* [[Troll]]: He acts like one on occasion, but he's never mean-spirited about it. For example, he kicked off the Theme Song contest with a video that made him look like a [[Small Name, Big Ego]] with incredibly limited knowledge of the entire [[Caustic Critic]] community, up to confusing [[
{{quote|
* [[Tuxedo and Martini]]: Linkara does not like this type of secret agent. Said best at the end of the Sci Spy review:

** However, he does expect a character named [[Spin Offspring|James Bond Junior]] to have ''something'' to do with this trope.
* [[All
* [[Twenty Minutes Into the Future]]: Quite literally at the start of "Law and Order #1"
* [[Unpleasable Fanbase]]: [[In-Universe|He stated]] [https://web.archive.org/web/20100420011207/http://thatguywiththeglasses.com/videolinks/bt/aj/ajs/13236-youmacon02 in a Youmacon Q&A panel] that part of why he had not done any of the [[Sonic the Hedgehog (
** However, by picking Sonic Live! as his target, he did the only thing that ''could'' please them: Tear apart one of the few things in the franchise that gets universal hatred.
* [[The Un-Reveal]]: [[Todd in
* [[Unsound Effect]]: Notes the "Run" sound effect in ''Archie Meets the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles''.
* [[Unstoppable Rage]]: Linkara becomes so frustrated with the video game ''Wolverine: Adamantium Rage'' that he starts shouting "Adamantium Rage!" and punching various objects including [[The Spoony Experiment|Spoony]], a [[Kirby]] doll, a pillow and a can of soda...but ends up getting punched himself by [[
* [[Unusual Euphemism]]: "What the Funk & Wagnalls?" is a recurring one.
* [[Up to Eleven]]: Linkara has said that his video personality is his normal personality with this applied.
Line 200:
** Ensign Munrooooe!!!
* [[Video Review Show]]
* [[Viewers Are Geniuses]]: The ''[[Star Trek: The
* [[Villain Sue]]: Calls Prometheus this during ''[[Cry for Justice]]'', pointing that that he has a ridiculous amount of counters to every super hero he comes across, like a magic bullet for Supergirl, his bombs have the absurd ability to counter the powers of any superhero from the respective cities, even the Shade, despite Prometheus supposedly not knowing who he is because he didn't keep a database on villains/antiheroes (which Linkara points he would if he was [[Informed Ability|as much of a genius as the comic makes him out to be]]), and easily taking the Shade down after earlier comics had raised him to "Mega badass status." As he puts it, Prometheus was made too powerful for there to be any believable way for him to be defeated, and this turns out to be true as he's defeated by Green Arrow breaking into his hideout and shooting him the head.
* [[Vocal Evolution]]: His voice was a lot calmer in earlier episodes. The difference is notable even when looking at his first two episodes; in his review of Adjectiveless ''Spider-Man'' #56, he almost sounds like he is whispering so as to not disturb the neighbours. Compare that to his reaction to the letters column of ''Doom's IV'' #2 just eight days later.
* [[The Voiceless]]: Ninja Style Dancer. {{spoiler|Except in Linkara's Silent Hill-induced hallucinations.}}
* [[Wangst]]: [[Played for Laughs]]. After his date with Telsia is abruptly cut short during ''Elite Force'', Linkara spends several minutes drunkenly staggering around Voyager, wailing to himself and trying to get Häagen-Dazs out of the replicators.
* [[Wanton Cruelty to
* [[Watsonian Versus Doylist]]: He falls under Doylist a lot of the time when justifications are poor.
** With Peter Parker being married to Mary Jane, he calls on the writers for including pointless scenes of her since then, and making her say stupid things.
* [[Waxing Lyrical]]: He does this a lot. Examples he has quoted include [[The Beatles (
* [[Weapon of Choice]]: His [[Cool Gun]], an 18th-century flintlock (or a replica of such. One episode mentions parts of it are made of aluminum) pistol ([[I Call It Vera|dubbed "Suicide Gun" and later "Magic Gun"]]) that shoots magic [[Family-Friendly Firearms|lasers]].
** [[Dual-Wielding]]/[[Sword and Gun]]: He occasionally mixes things up by having the pistol in one hand and the [[Mighty Morphin Power Rangers|Green Ranger's]] Dragon Dagger in the other; when using the dagger on its own he can play it like a flute, making it shoot green lightning. He later starts using Saba instead of the Dragon Dagger on occasion when fighting Silent Hill a second time.
* [[Weirdness Magnet]]: Linkara's house prior to the 100th episode.
* [[Wham! Line]]: Linkara gives one to those who have not read ''[[Cry for Justice]]'':
{{quote|
* [[What an Idiot!]]: Linkara points out in-universe that the best solution two scientists can think of to restrain an easily manipulable, [[Nigh Invulnerable]] super robot is to chain him up rather than disassembling him or fortifying him against enemy radio signals.
* [[What Do You Mean It's Not for Kids?]]: Points out that ''[[James Bond Jr.]]'' was one of numerous kids' animated shows based on movies that definitely were not made for kids. Others were ''[[Rambo the Force of Freedom]]'', ''[[Conan the Barbarian]]'', and ''[[Highlander the Animated Series]]''.
* [[What Happened to
* [[What the Hell, Hero?]]: Linkara gives one to Superman when he insults Big Barda for having heavy makeup after she has spent two days being mind-controlled and possibly raped.
** He gives even more to the Man of Steel in ''Superman #701'', particularly for making a little boy deliver a warning to a gang he just pissed off.
Line 226:
* [[A Wizard Did It]]: "What part of 'it's magic' don't you understand?!?"
** Also complained about in Superman: Distant Fires review. There's "Magic as a Wonderful Force", and "Narrative Magic." Linkara likes the former, hates the latter. As the latter is often just used for lazy writing.
* [[Wolverine Publicity]]: Outside of the Brawl and even his [["Previously On..."]] segments, Linkara has cameoed with the Nostalgia Critic, the Spoony One, Benzaie, Bennett the Sage, MarzGurl, Lee and so on. [[

** Invoked with [https://web.archive.org/web/20130920174331/http://thatguywiththeglasses.com/videolinks/ir/lag/comic/29282-spider-man-omit his co-review with The Last Angry Geek], where he basically states that he's popular and [[The Last Angry Geek]] isn't.
** Lampshaded when he cameos for [[The Bunny Perspective|Phil Bunni]].
{{quote|
'''Phil''': Nope. Now you can just promote this video on [[Twitter]], post it on your blog, talk about it on the forums...your coattails have been rode. }}
* [[Worlds Smallest Violin]]: Linkara once got out a violin in an ''Ultimates'' Vol 4.
* [[Writer
** His ''Batman: Fortunate Son'' review is half a review and half a pro-capitalism rant in response to the comic's [[You Fail Economics Forever|idiotic idea of what constitutes "selling out"]].

* [[You Are Fat]]: {{spoiler|This makes up roughly half of the (cursed) ''Mightily Murdered Power Ringers'' comic's insults toward Linkara. Linkara doesn't deny it, but he's not fazed by it, either.}}
