Line 19:
'''Alt Cap:''' I prefer "anti-hero".
'''Miss Match:''' And '''I''' prefer "extra-legal capital liberator", but the cops just laugh. }}
* [[Back Fromfrom the Dead]]: {{spoiler|Memo}}.
* [[Bad Guy Bar]]: Beelze Pub.
* [[Bad Santa]]: Evil Atom decides to recruit [[Santa Claus]], reasoning that he shows all the signs of being a classic villain. {{spoiler|Santa surprisingly accepts - and promptly gets carted off by [[The Men in Black|the Feds]].}}
Line 54:
* [[Cosmic Being]]: Grand Gamer (and his parents).
* [[Cut and Paste Comic]]: The Saturday strips use a small set of different sets of art with changed dialogue. At first they were Lighting Lady acting as [[Sexy Secretary|Sexy Tech Support]]; later they became a series of [[Incredibly Lame Pun]]s on department names, while still later the scene shifted to the cafeteria's menu. {{spoiler|Best so far? "Ghoulash".}}
* [[Cute Monster Girl]]: Subverted. Desdemona is a demon, but in appearance is 100% human.
* [[Cut Lex Luthor a Check]]: The entire ''point'' of the company.
** Though it should be said, they mostly sell inventions to supervillains, and most of their corporate strategies involve [[Step Three: Profit|somehow getting stockholders behind super-villainy]]. They aren't so much selling their fancy techonlogies to the regular consumers.
Line 75:
* [[Fan Boy]]: Don Luke Piccardo. [[Star Trek: The Next Generation|Guess what he's obsessed with]].
{{quote|'''Don Luke:''' ''(discussing his choice of toy train)'' Number One? [[Incredibly Lame Pun|N-gauge]].}}
* [[Five-Bad Band]]:
** [[Big Bad]]: Evil Atom
** [[The Dragon]]: Dr. Haynus
Line 103:
** LL's alternate-universe self "utilises a special [[Phlebotinum|Nth-metal]] underwire".
* [[Improv Fu]]: Muskiday and Haynus ad-lib the latter having a "force field" to explain their "capturing" the alternate Miss Match to Up'n Atom. Only a ''very'' short time later, Haynus shows off a working force-field generator...
{{quote|'''Haynus:''' While you were picking up [[MacGuffin|Project X]], I got creative...
'''Muskiday:''' [[Incredibly Lame Pun|You sly dog.]] }}
* [[Incredibly Lame Pun]] / [[Just for Pun]]: The entire strip ''runs'' on these tropes.
Line 126:
* [[Lava Adds Awesome]]: the fight between Captain Heroic and {{spoiler|Wingman}}. Cap has no problem with having ''bathed in lava'' to retrieve his {{spoiler|Commander USA secret decoder ring, which he then uses to ''knock Wingman out''.}}
* [[Luke, I Might Be Your Father]]: Commander Heroic has a heart attack in mid-flight ("helped" by the fact {{spoiler|Mr. Threat has been siphoning off his powers}}) when he {{spoiler|sees Flame babysitting Oscar}}, and realises {{spoiler|Miss Match might be his daughter. [[Brother-Sister Incest|Thankfully]], she isn't,}} and he gets better.
* [[The Mafia]]: Evil, Inc is hired by the Mafia to steal one family's "superweapon" for another. {{spoiler|It turns out it's [[Chekhov's Boomerang|Project X]].}}
* [[The Masquerade Will Kill Your Dating Life]]: Lightning Lady and Elastic Man (type 3A).
* [[Mirror Universe]]: Muskiday and Haynus visit one. The heroes are villains and the villains are heroes... {{spoiler|[[Knight Templar|Or are they]]?}}
Line 171:
{{quote|'''Alternate Miss Match:''' ...seems like overkill to use an entire hanger...}}
** Also [[Lampshaded]] by Lightning Lady:
{{quote|'''Captain Heroic:''' Is there ''any'' place [[It Makes Sense in Context|I can touch you]] that ''won't'' be inappropriate?
'''Lightning Lady:''' If there ''is'', I need to find a new tailor! }}
*** Ironically, LL's initial reaction to Desdemona was negative on account of her outfit. A bemused Keagan [[Hypocrite|pointed out the obvious]].
