''[[Troper Works/Earthbound Legends|EarthboundEarthBound Legends]]'' (full title: ''EarthboundEarthBound Legends ([[My Friends and Zoidberg|Oh, And Poo]])'') is an <s>awesome</s> <s>mediocre</s> <s>lame</s> <s>[[So Bad It's Good]]</s> [http://starmen.net/comics/series/EBLegends/ screw it, you decide] [[Sprite Comic]] parody of ''[[EarthboundEarthBound]]'' hosted by Starmen.net. It more-or-less follows the main storyline of the game, as Ness is woken up by a meteor and is launched into a bizarre adventure involving [[Psychic Powers]] and incompetent alien adversaries. Will he be able to find his other allies around the world and save the earth?

{{tropelist}}
=== Tropes found in this work: ===
* [[Affectionate Parody]]: Of [[EarthboundEarthBound]].
* [[My Friends and Zoidberg]]: It's in the title!
* [[Ascended Extra]]: Picky Minch. Lampshaded during the Frank battle.
{{quote| "What's that blond kid doing here!?"}}
* [[Critical Existence Failure]]: In Episode 12, Frank's mech explodes after a stick is thrown at it. Ness lampshades it in Episode 13, explaining the concept to Picky and even mentioning the trope by name.
* [[Fan Web Comic]]
* [[Made of Explodium]]: Frank's mech.
* [[Psychic Powers]]: Inevitable, considering the source material.
* [[Rule of Funny]]: Some things in the comic probably didn't happen that way in [[EarthboundEarthBound]]. Such as Lardna [[Megaton Punch|Falcon Punching]] Buzz-Buzz.
* [[Shout-Out]]: Picky learns the utterly useless AMUT spell from [[Final Fantasy]]. Also contains a thinly-veiled reference to [[Fobbies Are Borange]].
* [[Serious Business]]: In Episode 9, a shark complains about how the other cheats by spamming the same move over and over. The other then says and I quote "I hope you are aware that video games are the new politics. Bringing up the "correct" way to play a game is an excellent way to get yourself lynched; after all, entertainment is SERIOUS BUSINESS!"
