m (Mass update links)
Line 53:
* [[Brought to You By The Letter S]]: Mr. Scouse and the other M:Tron scientists have the letter 'M' on their uniform. Similarly, the Blacktron II members have a 'B on theirs.
* [[Can't Hold His Liquor]]: Lance and Vance Gemini in 'First Field Assignment'.
* [[Card -Carrying Villain]]: The alien leader.
* [[Call Back]]: The Allied Avenger with the Hooting Space Monkey tied to it in 'Bootlegs'.
* [[Cell Phone]]: An amusing use, for a series that takes place in the future; Schwartz uses a phone built into his helmet to call a character, and that character uses an item treated like a modern cell phone to communicate back. Taken even further in that the piece she's using to do so is based on old 1970's walkie-talkies complete with long antennae.
Line 61:
* [[Clip Show]]: Episode 100 starts as this, then quickly subverts it in the manner of 'making stuff up that never happened'. There is however an overall plot to the episode beyond the clip show.
* [[Cloning Blues]]: Averted for the clones in 'Bootlegs'; the two don't care that they're clones and just go about living their lives without thinking of this fact.
* [[Clones Are People, Too]]: As discussed above.
* [[Comically Missing the Point]]: Schwartz in 'Party Hardy!', as pointed out by the author.
* [[Cool Cat]]: Vanilla Snowball. {{spoiler|Flying the Gamma-V in 'House Call' to take out the Commodore ''definitely'' qualifies him for this!}}
Line 79:
* [[Ensign Newbie]]: Lt. Coldwell starting in 'Blank Attack'.
* [[Establishing Shot]]: One for every location in the comic.
* [[EverythingsEverything's Deader With Zombies]]: The Captain Dash Jefferson zombie.
* [[Exactly What I Aimed At]]: A trick Amarillo uses in 'Fun on the Runway'.
* [[Executive Meddling]]: For a few strips (445-447), the author appeared to be having troubles with his host site. {{spoiler|In reality it's a "meta-storyline" used for framing a guest strip.}}
* [[Fantastic Racism]]: Played with with the Martians in 'The Breakup'- Harrison Ford clone #35 and his political followers don't seem to respect the Martians very much, to put it mildly.
* [[Fainting]]: Mr. Torio, the "emotional" kind.
* [[Finishing Each OthersOther's Sentences]]: Lance and Vance Gemini, at least most of the time.
* [[Five -Man Band]]: Out of the five Classic Space characters:
||border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0
||[[The Hero]]||Amarillo||
Line 103:
* [[Home Base]]: Every character has one. For the Space Agents, it's mainly the Inter-Galactic Command Base, with the Android Base being secondary; for the Blacktron pirates, the Alpha Centauri Outpost; for the M:Tron scientists, it's officially the Mega Core Magnetizer (though in a sense the Raven's Port Bar could count too); and for the future Space Police it's Space Police Central Precinct 78.
* [[Intellectual Animal]]: The 'Jersey Devil' dragons.
* [[Isn't It Ironic?]]: Ronald travels through time to stop the recording of [[Alanis Morissette]]'s song. {{spoiler|This actions has serious consequences in the time continuum}}.
* [[Jerkass]]: Ronald falls into this sometimes, as his treatment of his brother and Mr. Wobbly Droid indicates, as well as his view towards the others in the 'House Call' storyline.
* [[Kent Brockman News]]: Starting with the 'DACTA' storyline.
* [[Latin Lover]]: Manuel Rotondo De Beauvis in 'Party Hardy!', naturally.
* [[Last -Name Basis]]: Schwartz and Galanos are both character's surnames; as of the current comic, only Galanos' first name has been revealed {{spoiler|(Micheal)}}. Schwartz doesn't seem to like his first name, avoiding questions on what it is ('400'/'Schwartz...On [X]').
* [[Legitimate Businessmens Social Club]]: Blacktron trying to go 'legitimate' as a corporation. In reality, the thieving and pirating still goes on, it's just in more of a 'behind-the-scenes' capacity.
* [[Loads and Loads of Characters]]: At last count, there were around 49 characters each with more than one or two strips to their name.
Line 161:
* [[Twin Banter]]: Lance and Vance Gemini tend to do this in their appearances.
* [[Under New Management]]: In the strip of the same name, the author is 'fired' and replaced by someone chosen by 'The Management'. {{spoiler|This is actually the setup for a guest strip of course.}}
* [[What the Hell, Hero?]]: Schwartz seemingly leaving Valkyrie to die in 'Thursday Night at Last', and Valkyrie calls him out on it. {{spoiler|Of course, it was all part of a tactic to try to kill the yeti (don't ask)- Valkyrie was being a bit quick to judge.}}
* [[What the Hell Is That Accent?]]: This is Scouse's accent perfectly.
* [[Whip It Good]]: Schwartz's use of the whip in the 'Indiana Jones' storyline; later its use by Valkyrie in 'Meteor Madness II'.
* [[You Gotta Have Blue Hair|You Gotta Have Purple Hair]]: Commander Valkyrie.
