Decap Attack (comic strip)

Decap Attack was a comic strip loosely based on the video game, published in the U.K.'s Sonic the Comic, written and drawn by Nigel Kitching.

Tropes used in Decap Attack include:

Affectionate Parody: Of monster archetypes.
Aloof Big Brother: Chuck's "big brother" is fellow monster, Boris. However, Boris quickly grew bored with life at the castle and went off to become a film star.
Ascended Extra: Head. In the game he was merely an optional item for Chuck (with no indication of being an actual character), while the comic turns him into a comedic foil of sorts.
Chaotic Neutral: Best describes Professor Stein.
Daddy's Little Villain: The Thin Controller - Max D. Cap's daughter - qualifies as this. She's smitten with Prof. Stein, who doesn't reciprocate due to...well, she's a demon.
Dem Bones: Head, the talking skull.
Expy: Max D. Cap is basically Satan, albeit quite genial in nature. Professor Stein should be obvious.
Fifth Ranger: Kevin of the TPC (that's Transylvanian Pest Control). He only ever appears to tackle the dreaded pumpkin menace.
Fire and Brimstone Hell: Hell is like this. No one seems to mind.
- The trains even run on time!
Funetik Aksent: Stein's German accent portrayed like this.
- It's also fake; he's really from Cardiff.
Gang of Bullies: Stein was plagued by one during his school days. However, he eventually got his revenge and the experience put him on the path to Mad Science.
Gosh Dang It to Heck: At the end of the day, regardless of the monstrous nature of its cast, it's a comic for kids.
- The word "Hell" was used on a few occassions. Granted it was because the cast were literally in Hell.
Heroic Comedic Sociopath: Igor. The "heroic" part is up for debate.
Hurricane of Puns
I Just Want to Be Normal: Chuck. Or he wants a normal life, anyway.
Improbable Weapon User: Due to an accident during his creation, Chuck's head is imbedded in his torso. He can attack people by extending it outwards to headbutt them with all the force of a truck.
- Or, failing that, he can ~~hurl~~ chuck Head.
Informed Attribute: Max is described by the Professor as being one of the most evil beings alive, as he borrowed the Professor's lawnmower and never returned it.
Lightning Can Do Anything: Especially bring monsters - and other crimes against nature - to life.
Mad Scientist: Prof. Stein, obviously. He enjoys his work.
Monster Mash
Nightmare Fuel: DER PUMPLEKINS.
- Chuck is visited by a dentist in one issue. It was not pleasant.
- The Loan Sharks.
No Name Given: The Thin Controller.
Our Zombies Are Different: Some people call Chuck a zombie, others peg him as a mummy. Regardless he doesn't hunger for human flesh...in fact, he's quite fond of cheese.
Periphery Hatedom: In universe example. Chuck kept a bunny rabbit, who wrote cutesy stories about himself, locked in a tower so he wouldn't read any more. This backfired, when Chuck finally released him he'd used the time to write hundreds more.
Punch Clock Villain: The demons of Hell.
Shout-Out: Many.
Sickly Neurotic Geek: Head is this. Sort of.
Smug Snake: Igor.
Suddenly Voiced: The "Pumplekin" pumpkins, which are silent in their first appearance and snarky gits in their second.
Take That: Against Milton Keynes. Huh.
The Igor: An unorthodox depiction of an Igor.
Token Evil Teammate: Igor, Stein's lab assistant, constantly tries to kill Chuck and generally just insults everyone.
Treasure Is Bigger in Fiction: "B" coins are unusually large.
Unstoppable Rage: Chuck, while normally a nice guy, can descend into this if you're not careful.
With Friends Like These...
A Worldwide Punomenon: Lots of them. See Punny Name above.
You Gotta Have Green Hair: Professor Stein. It's dyed.
