Line 47:
** "[[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: The Hands of Fate]]''}} seems to have become this.
* [[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.
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...
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.
