Line 45:
* [[Cameo]]: Practically every single famous Spanish politician of the second half of the 20th Century has appeared in more than one volume.
** A lot of foreign politicians and world leaders, such as the US Presidents (from Ronald Reagan to Barack Obama), Fidel Castro or the European Prime Ministers, appear quite often too.
* [[Canon Dis ContinuityDiscontinuity]]: Ibáñez lost the rights to write the comic during the late 80s. During that time, less known authors published some stories on their own (each with his own style, see [[Depending on the Writer]] below). When Ibáñez regained the rights, he dismissed most of the stories written by other authors (some of them are still among the official works, though).
* [[Catch Phrase]]: Mortadelo repeats his "Run, boss, run!" [http://mortadeloyalgomas.blogspot.com.es/2011/05/4-aniversario-de-corra-jefe-corra.html quite a few times.]
* [[Chekhov's Armoury]]: The first movie. You'll just get amazed at how many details get reused later on.
Line 57:
** Doctor Bacterio also deserves a special mention, as everybody do always their best to make his life miserable.
* [[Chuck Cunningham Syndrome]]: Irma, sort of. Her introduction was forced as a way to combat [[Ho Yay]] views of the main characters. The character was apparently disliked by the series creator and [[Brother Chuck|Brotherchucked]] when he gained full control of the series some years later.
** It's also related to the [[Canon Dis ContinuityDiscontinuity]] mentioned above. The introduction of Irma coincided in time with the loss of publishing rights that Ibáñez suffered. As a result, most of the comic books where Irma appears are "apocryphal" and were not written by himself. If you see a comic book where Irma appears, most likely wasn't written by him. When he eventually regained the rights, he dismissed a character that was now strongly associated with the "apocryphal" comic books.
* [[Clothes Make the Superman]]: Some of Mortadelo's disguises grant him abilities he doesn't have undisguised. For example, his ghost disguise allows him to phase through walls, he can [[Wall Crawling|climb buildings]] while disguised as a lizard, breathe underwater with a fish disguise or fly disguised as a bird.
* [[Collared by Fashion]]: Mortadelo.
