Line 27:
* [[Nice Hat]]: This is how Frederick travels through time
* [[Only Sane Man]]: Isaac Newton, or so he feels most of the time. But he too can succumb to megalomania.
* [[Ret -Gone]]: Paul-Henri Delaflote used to be a very important scientist, but was erased from history
* [[Sealed Evil in A Can]]: [[Calvin Coolidge]]. Seriously
* [[Shout -Out]]: Several:
** The 'future' arc is admittedly inspired by ''[[Star Trek the Next Generation]]''
** The same arc features a direct reference to ''[[Ender's Game]]''
** Joseph Campbell shows up wielding a lightsaber. This is a reference to his influence on [[George Lucas]] during the writing of ''[[Star Wars]]''.
* [[Stable Time Loop]]: The 'future' arc
* [[Super -Powered Alter Ego]]: Abraham Lincoln can become ''Flaverham'' Lincoln, a mighty juggernaut powered by pure ''funk''
* [[Take That]]: Napoleon, an avowed fan of [[The Empire]] from ''[[Star Wars]]'', suffers a psychotic breakdown when he sees them defeated by the Ewoks.
** The Gentlemen Scholars (or at least the Count) don't have a very favourable opinion on Carl Jung or his work. To their credit, this dislike doesn't really show that much in the comic (Jung's [[Jerkass]] tendencies aren't any worse than anyone else's in the comic), but [[The Rant]] for those strips was incredibly vitriolic.
