{{tropelist}}
* Adorkable: Many of the characters, including Print Journalism, Photography, and Internet.
* [[All Love Is Unrequited]]: Well, most of it anyways.
* [[Art Evolution]]
* [[Art Shift]]: Constantly. The first page and second page have this in spades.
** [[No Fourth Wall]]: Internet [[Lampshade Hanging|gives the artist an earful]] [[Self
* [[Always Someone Better]]: A recurring theme is this, and its occasional subversion.
* [[Anthropomorphic Personification]]: Duh

* [[Generation Xerox]]: Literature and his son, Comics. Also, Telegraphy and Internet

Line 43 ⟶ 42:
*** Sadly, there's no trope for "all media are jerks."
* [[Older Than They Look]]: Most of the media channels invented prior to the 19th Century have this. Comic is an egregious offender; he looks like an [[Emo Teen]], but is physically in his 20s and is older that Television. Averted with Telegraphy.
* [[Sibling Yin

** The Prints (Literature and Print Journalism) are a more amiable pair of brothers. One is sedentary, the other adventurous.
** [[Polar Opposite Twins|Internet and Intranet]]. The former is an extroverted [[Jerkass]] and the other is a
* [[Shout
* [[Take That]]: Quite a bit really. Mainly toward [[Executive Meddling]] and other media pet peeves.
* [[Teens Are Short]]: Averted with Internet, who is actually taller than his father [[Computer Tech]]. His sister Arpanet is even taller.
* [[Visual Pun]]:
