Line 42:
* [[Hide Your Gays]]: [[Averted Trope|Averted]]. Rob, the major gay character, gets his fair share of sex just like the heteros. The main characters have friendly and open relations with the gay/lesbian community and are viewed as equals.
** {{spoiler|Played straight with Maria, who surrenders to Bonner's blackmail in order to protect her gay brother from public exposure.}}
* [[Hooker Withwith a Heart of Gold]]: Jo.
* [[Its Not Porn Its Art|It's Not Porn, It's Art]]: While very sexually explicit, critics who favorably reviewed the comic noted the high degree of storytelling and specified that ''Omaha'' is ''not'' a pornographic comic.
** Some chapters [[Porn Withwith Plot|have no sex]].
* [[The Lancer]]: Jerry, Chuck's friend and Charles' most competent underling.
* [[Like Father, Like Son]]: Charles Sr. and Chuck. They even look alike... ''naked''.
Line 55:
* [[Porn Names|Porn Name]]: Does she look like a "Susan" to you?
* [[Pride Before a Fall]]: How Bonner thinks he can beat Chuck like he earlier defeated Charles Sr.: "His pride." {{spoiler|It almost works.}}
* [[Rape Asas Drama]]: {{spoiler|At one point Chuck forcibly has sex with Omaha when she's clearly not in the mood and she ends up in tears. She later calls him on it, and he realizes he did something VERY wrong, so he makes up for it (by getting kinkier for her sake and organizing a threesome!)}}.
** What [[Rape Is a Special Kind of Evil|Bonner does to women is evil]]. Even the hookers in town are terrified of him, and warn Jo not to mess with him. Jo, however, [[A Simple Plan|has a plan]]...
* [[Shout-Out]]: the comic began as a sexy animal parody of [[CharliesCharlie's Angels]] (with Omaha, Jo and Shelly as the Angels). The parody aspect was quickly dropped for a [[Soap Opera]] storyline.
* [[Slice of Life]]
* [[Sliding Scale of Gender Inequality]]: Hoo boy, it would take a team of sociologists to measure this. The society in Omaha's world looks down on sex, and has men in powerful offices abusing women as sex toys. On the other hand, Omaha and her friends are open about their sexual choices, pursue relationships with nice guys like Chuck and Jerry who treat women with equal respect, and are willing to stand up publicly to defend themselves and their life choices.
