* [[Boomerang Bigot]]

* [[Bring My Brown Pants]]: In "The Story Of Gangstalicious", while at gunpoint.

* [[Canon Immigrant]]: He was originally created for the show, but McGruder added him to the comic in the brief period between the show starting and the comic ending.

* [[Characterization Marches On]]: Season 1 actually has moments where he seems completely aware that he's black. Refering to whites as "they" and blacks as "we" is a subtle example.

** Other lines include "I was happy at the back of the buss" and "I would have shoot you myself but I realised the white man got better aim." Not to mention the episode "The Passion of Reverend Ruckus".

* [[Continuity Nod]]: He's a reverend again in "Stinkmeaner Strikes Back".

* [[Badass]]

* [[Cute and Psycho]]

* [[Disproportionate Retribution]]: Like her mother, Luna was severely abused over the slightest things, whether the cooking was cold and the laundry was done wrong.

** Her friend Nicole doesn't help either; she suggested that Luna should just outright ''kill'' Granddad just for cutting their weekend short.

* [[Domestic Abuse]]:

* {{spoiler|[[Interrupted Suicide]]:}} Only most likely because Granddad and Tom {{spoiler|were in the same room and tied up when Luna contemplated whether she should blow herself up with a grenade.}}

** {{spoiler|[[Driven to Suicide]]:}} [[Sarcasm Mode|Thanks a lot, Nicole.]]

* [[Raised by Wolves]]: She also owns ''fifteen'' of them.

* [[Rape Is a Special Kind of Evil]]:

** It's also implied {{spoiler|she's also suffered this during that summer with Jim Brown.}}

* [[She Fu]]: She beats the living shit out of Huey, chokes out Granddad, and tosses Tom across the room by the neck with her legs, ** [[Waif Fu]]: Luna is also much stronger than she looks, as she is seen a flashback beating the crap of a guy three times her size in the Kumite (<small>[[Running Gag|HIYAA!]]</small>) flashback and ''rips his heart right out of his chest.'' She also laments wiping the floor with Huey by ''punching a hole in the wall.''

* [[Unusual Euphemism]]: Her "friendly sparring match" with Huey [[Curb Stomp Battle|wasn't so friendly...]] {{spoiler|for Huey, that is.}}

* [[Wham! Line]]:

* [[Woman Scorned]]: She rose hell when she found out Granddad lied to her about attending Fidel Castro's birthday party.

* [[Yandere]]: And ''how''.

* {{spoiler|[[Riches to Rags]]: The episode title is a even a play off the name.}}

* [[Vitriolic Best Buds]]: Gets off to a rocky start with Granddad, but eventually they put aside their differences. This is especially apparent after {{spoiler|Otis gives up his "Thugnificent" persona}}.
