Line 1: {{work}} '''''[http://ratfist.com/ Ratfist]''''' is a webcomic by ''[[Earthworm Jim (video game)\|Earthworm Jim]]'' creator [[~~Doug Ten Napel\|~~Doug TenNapel,]], about a superhero who begins to find his name a little more appropriate than he would like. The comic starts with the eponymous superhero going on "one last mission" with his sidekick Milt, who is an actual rat. He investigates a lab, wherein he finds a Tiki key that he's sure is important. Also, a rat bites him and disappears into his hand. One short altercation with a (literally) dog-faced security guard later, he absconds with the key and rushes off to his dinner date with his girlfriend Gina, to whom he plans to propose. The dinner does not go as planned. He undergoes a physical transformation into a human/rat hybrid, which is very unfortunate considering Gina is deathly afraid of rats. He shoves a menu in her face and spills wine on her blouse, then leaves without a trace. Line 9: The comic is professionally drawn, and the creator's trademark oddball humor is in full force. It ended at 150 strips on August 5, 2011. ~~----~~ ~~=== This webcomic contains the following tropes: ===~~ {{tropelist}} * [[Adult Child]]: Judging by some of the things the tail has to say about Ricky's subconscious. * [[Affably Evil]]: {{spoiler\|Space Tiki}}. So much so that you don't even realize it until he reveals that he {{spoiler\|invented cancer}}. Line 49 ⟶ 47: * [[Take That]]: Ratfist punches a trio of [[Furry Fandom\|furries]] on his way back to his apartment, including one in a [[Sonic the Hedgehog]]-[[Expy\|esque]] costume... When the mask on one of the costumes comes off, [[Crowning Moment of Funny\|it reveals a balding middle-aged man underneath.]] In the midst of a [https://web.archive.org/web/20110825003157/http://ratfist.com/13-page-111/ horribly dystopic future,] Ratfist complains that "L.A. is even ''more'' of a dump now!" (And in his commentary for the page, TenNapel calls Los Angeles a "jerk magnet.") * [[Take That Me]]: [http://ratfist.com/page-78/ This]{{Dead link}} page features the characters of the comic conversing with a young girl, deriding the guy who would raise his kids in a house full of all this propaganda. And by "young girl" I mean "Doug's daughter". * [[Third Person Person]]: Space Tiki * [[Trademark Favorite Food]]: Ricky loves chili so much that, should he find a fresh bowl on the ground in the middle of the sidewalk, he will eat it with barely a second thought.
