PvP (webcomic): Difference between revisions

** Robbie and Jase. Robbie still shows up on occasion, but Jase is basically gone.

* [[Product Placement]] - Not necessarily in the comic itself, but several of the site designs have been lousy with it, almost to the point that clicking anywhere outside the comic accidentally would take you to a sponsor site.

* [[Proud to Be a Geek]] - The whole cast, with the exception of Jade. Even she might just be a different style of geek..

** Brent, actually is an aversion, and while he admits to "interests that coincide with nerdity" he denies being an actual nerd, which Francis (a straight example of this trope) calls him out on it. He's an avowed Apple geek who will buy ''any'' product they make, a D&D player, a gamer, he plays ''[[World of Warcraft]]'' with his wife (who's in many ways geekier than him), quotes movies constantly, has declared [[Joss Whedon]] his master, almost dropped out of college because he was hooked on Sega games, and consistently gets into arguments about genre fiction or gaming with Francis and Cole. [[Blatant Lies|But he's not a nerd. Definitely not a nerd.]]

* [[So My Kids Can Watch|So My Dad Can Watch]] - [[Word of God]] says that Scott keeps it clean-ish for the sake of his father.

* [[Straight Man]] - Cole

* [[Superhero]] - Kurtz's earlier character Captain Amazing made an early appearance and earned a spinoff. More recently, we've seen Jingle Force Five (a Christmas-themed parody of the original [[X-Men]] lineup) and The Lolbat, a combination of [[Batman]] and the internet lolcat phenomena, whose [[Rogues Gallery]] is made up of [[Grammar Nazi|Grammar Nazis]].

** He also has a sidekick named [[Twitter|ReTweet]].

* [[Thanks for the Mammary]] - Francis honks Jade's boob when he thinks that he's in the future and therefore his actions have no consequences ([[It Makes Sense in Context]]). This leads to Jade leaving PvP to start her her own magazine.

** Part of the reason she returns to PvP is because one of her (female) coworkers in the new magazine does the <big>exact same thing</big>.

* [[Two Gamers on a Couch]] - Robbie and Jase were very nearly a parody of this as a B side story. At one point they got locked in their playing room for a month and didn't even notice.

** Also later the couch broke and they had a funeral pyre for it.
