Tropes used in Founding Boys include:

• The Alcoholic: Benjamin Rush. But he can stop drinking any time he wants. Really.
• Anachronism Stew: George Washington is seen talking to Alexander Hamilton on the phone in one comic. Lampshaded in the author's notes.

"And yes, people, I will occasionally break that wall and have technology in Founding Boys. It's an alternate universe; it's allowed for the sake of comedy."

• Artistic License History: The author's notes of this comic acknowledge that John and Edward Rutledge weren't twins, but they are portrayed as such to explain them both attending school at the same time.
• Delinquents: The Sons of Liberty are portrayed as this.
• Ho Yay/Foe Yay: Just a hint of it here.
• The Insomniac: If Benjamin Rush is to be believed, Patrick Henry hasn't slept in "about 172 days".
• Keet: James Madison.
• Large Ham: Patrick Henry.
• New Transfer Student: Thomas Jefferson.
• The Quiet One: George Washington.
