A webcomic done with [[LEGO]] figures and [[Tabletop Games|roleplaying]] miniatures, by David Morgan-Mar, an Australian physicist, who also perpetrates ''[[Darths and Droids]]''. Yes, he's [[One of Us]]. No need to run.

{{tropelist}}
* [[And Stay Out!]]: Invoked by name in [http://www.irregularwebcomic.net/4686.html this instalment], which provides the trope's page image.
* [[And the Adventure Continues...]]: When the crossover problems were resolved all of the different themes finished their quests and then had this ending.
* [[Art Evolution]]: Or Photo Quality Evolution, anyway.
* [[A Wizard Did It]]: Paris {{spoiler|clone}}. Although at that point we almost have the explanation.
* [[Author Guest Spot]]
* [[Back to Front]]: [http://www.irregularwebcomic.net/1667.html "My personal time stream has been running backwards for some reason, and this strip doesn't have a punchline."]
Line 47 ⟶ 48:
* [[Book Ends]]: The final panel (other than guest strips and "The End") is a reshoot of the very first panel.
* [[Brain In a Jar]]: [[Adolf Hitler]] himself.
* [[Call Back]]: Monty and hand tools, in the ''Cliffhangers'' theme - strips [https://www.irregularwebcomic.net/995.html 995] and [https://www.irregularwebcomic.net/4744.html 4744].
* [[Color-Coded Patrician]]: The head Death.
* [[Crisis Crossover]]: [http://www.irregularwebcomic.net/comic.php?current=2161&dir=next5 at the end of 2008], {{spoiler|the universe imploded due to [[Temporal Paradox|temporal paradoxes]] ocurring [[Meanwhile in the Future|simultaneously]] in most of the themes. The characters all ended up at the Infinite Featureless Plane of Death, but eventually managed to get their respective continuities [[Continuity Reboot|rebooted]]}}.
Line 57 ⟶ 59:
* [[Deep-Immersion Gaming]]
* [[Demoted to Extra]]: Quercus from the Space theme is currently this.
* [[Did You Just Punch Out Cthulhu?]]: Wrestle out Cthulhu, technically. Steve also wrestled to death {{spoiler|Death of Being Wrestled to Death by Steve when he showed up to collect the soul, which caused its own problems.}} That introduced the {{spoiler|Paradox Department, which is run by a giant frog.}} He has ''also'' wrestled a [[The Lord of the Rings|Balrog]] to death. Without even getting any burns.
* [[Done a George Lucas]]: Redirect Namer (with kind permission from Dr. Morgan-Mar), referencing his adding missing sound effects to a podcast.
* [[Don't Explain the Joke]]: This is the comic that averts this rule so hard and fast that you'd never know it existed. If there is any chance that a [[Viewers Are Geniuses|non-genius in the audience]] will not get the joke, it will be explained, in great detail. Not only are the explanations incredibly interesting in their own right but they often make the actual joke ''funnier''. [http://www.irregularwebcomic.net/2414.html This comic's] annotation brings explaining the joke [[Up to Eleven]].
Line 149 ⟶ 151:
* [[Tonight Someone Dies]]: Morgan-Mar announced the permanent death of a major character before the end of 2007. After setting up most of the regulars in highly perilous situations, {{spoiler|31 December came about -- and the "Me" character, Morgan-Mar in person, was killed.}}
* [[Too Soon]]: The "Steve and Terry" theme got a bit of flack when the real Steve Irwin died, though the fact that Steve woke up in the hospital from a serious injury when Steve Irwin died was entirely accidental, thanks to the miracle of comic buffers. He even apologized for the mix-up in the blurb.
* [[TV Tropes]]: [[The Rant]] frequently includes links to this[[The veryOther wikiTropes Wiki]], best summed up in [http://www.irregularwebcomic.net/1929.html this one-liner]: "It's really good when I can just [[A Wizard Did It|link to TV Tropes]], because then I know you'll have hours of reading without me having to do anything else."
* [[Tropes Will Ruin Your Life]]: [http://www.irregularwebcomic.net/2177.html this strip] warns "Do not click if you have something urgent you need to do today!"
* [[Two Lines, No Waiting|Two]] ''[[Serial Escalation|Dozen]]'' [[Two Lines, No Waiting|Lines No Waiting]]
Line 164 ⟶ 166:
* [[We Come in Peace, Shoot to Kill]]: The invading Martians in the theme of the same name.
* [[Weird Trade Union]]: Deaths on strike. {{spoiler|Which was eventually broken.}}
* [[A Wizard Did It]]: Paris {{spoiler|clone}}. Although at that point{{when}} we almost have the explanation.
* [[Writer on Board]]: The Shakespeare theme started out as a one shot railing against the culture-deadening evils of Microsoft PowerPoint, though it moved away from this quickly.
* [[You Have Failed Me...]]
