Line 1: {{work\|wppage=Monty (comic strip)}} '''''[https://www.gocomics.com/monty Monty]''''' (formerly ''Robotman'' and then ''Robotman and Monty'') is a comic strip by Jim Meddick that was started in 1985 and iswas still running toas of ~~this~~May ~~day~~2020. In the beginning it starred Robotman, a robot who believed he was from another planet, living with the Milde family until he found his geeky creator Monty, who had given him false memories of being an alien, though he did have to leave Earth when aliens showed up to abduct him, leaving Monty as the star of the show. {{Needs More Info}} ~~----~~ ~~=== The comic provides examples of the following tropes: ===~~ {{tropelist}} * [[Adorkable]]: Monty. * [[Aborted Arc]]: Whatever happened to all this about Monty actually being from space?? Line 31 ⟶ 32: * [[Nerd Glasses]]: Monty and Dwayne. * [[Our Vampires Are Different]]: Dwayne, a nerdy vampire, only eats animal-blood and ketchup. * [[Shout Out]]: There are several! Guess who [[Yoko Ono\|Loco Ohno]] is a pardoy of? Plenty to [[Star Trek]] and [[Star Wars]]. Monty was told at one point that [[Breaking the Fourth Wall\|the comic world is not real, but a fictional realm]], referred to as [[The Matrix\|The Comix]]. Monty was once bitten by a [[Spider Man\|radioactive Ladybug.]] There's been a two-week parody of [[Lost]] that revealed "The Others" to be the cast of [[Gilligans Island]]. * There was also an [[Apocalypse Now]] reference in there. The three-week story [[Lord of the Rings\|Lord Of The Thing]] Fleshy resembles [[The Pink Panther]] somewhat. [[The Shining]] was spoofed once. Apparently the title is a tribute to [[Monty Python]]. * [[Spotlight-Stealing Squad]]: Monty's role started growing more and more after he was introduced, making Robotman himself [[Demoted to Extra]]. * [[Take That]]: Again, too many to name. * [[Talking Animal]]: Pilsner, Chimpy and, way back, Mr. Giggles. * [[What Do You Mean It Wasn't Made on Drugs?]]: The comic even gets too weird for the protagonist at one point. * [[Tear Jerker]]: Robotman's final strip before leaving. * [[What DoHappened ~~You~~to ~~Mean~~the ~~It Wasn't Made On Drugs~~Mouse?]]: ~~The~~Chimpy ~~comic~~and ~~even~~Dave ~~gets~~disappear ~~too~~some ~~weird for the~~time ~~protagonist~~after atDoc ~~one~~is ~~point~~introduced. * [[What Happened to The Mouse?]]: Chimpy and Dave disappear some time after Doc is introduced. {{reflist}} [[Category:Newspaper Comics]] [[Category:~~Robotman and~~ Monty]] [[Category:~~Comic~~Pages ~~Strip~~with working Wikipedia tabs]] [[Category:Newspaper Comics of the 1980s]] [[Category:Newspaper Comics of the 1990s]] [[Category:Newspaper Comics of the 2000s]] [[Category:Newspaper Comics of the 2010s]] [[Category:Newspaper Comics of the 2020s]]
