Line 271:
* [[The Pig's Ear|Angus]] is a retired adventurer who now works as a pub chef, but otherwise fits the trope straight. So straight that the Scottish creator of the comic gave Angus (and Angus alone) a Scottish [[Funetik Aksent]].
* Flintlocke, of ''[[Flintlocke's Guide to Azeroth]]'' plays around with this one. While he adheres to several Dwarf stereotypes, including a love of combat, [[No Indoor Voice|boisterous loudness]], a strange sort of Scottish accent, a few demonstrated instances of marked greed, and some impressive facial hair, he also happens to be something of a cross between a [[Gadgeteer Genius]] and a [[Mad Bomber]], and where most of the other Dwarves are shown as sensible individuals, Flintlocke is about as dumb as a pile of hammers. On more than a few occasions he's managed to outwit ''himself.'' It gets to the point that the ''[[Our Angels Are Different|Spirit Healer]]'' had to get a word in.
{{quote| '''Spirit Healer''': Dumbass.}}
* In ''[[Vanadys: Tales of a Fallen Goddess]]'', dwarfs (note the plural spelling) are the second most numerous race in the world next to humans, and live and work close to humans. The stereotypical dwarf is a keen businessman with a great talent for making money, and many human businesses employ a dwarf, or several, to handle their finances. Berrok, the main dwarf character in the comic, is a trenchcoat-clad [[Deadpan Snarker]] with a shady past.
 
Line 317:
*** I believe that was Balin 'Uncle Bally''s sarcophagus.
* ''[[Thunderstruck]]''
{{quote| '''Sharon''': So you're a dwarf? You're taller than I expected, um, you get that a lot don't you?}}
* ''[[The Dreadful]]'' gives us [[Ax Crazy]] Burke, who is less like a typical dwarf and more like an [[Expy]] of Yosemite Sam.
