Life of Riley (Web Comic): Difference between revisions

 

* [[Department of Redundancy Department]]: Evil Dan shows us how it's done.

* [[Distracted by the Sexy]]: In an effort to force Dan to go Stage 3, the goddesses develop a battle strategy that hinges on Manda flashing him. It works.

* [[Divide by Zero]]: The Duel of the Dans has a distinctly adverse affect on reality itself. To a lesser degree, this happens any time either of them goes past Stage 1, usually resulting in a [[Gender Bender]] for everyone in the surrounding area.

* [[Jive Turkey]]: Evil Dan, after attaining Stage 3.

* [[La Résistance]]: The Bobs become this when Jezebel invades, mobilizing with surprising speed and manpower.

* [[Leaning on the Fourth Wall]]

'''Evil Dan:''' Like anyone is going to get that reference. }}

* [[Lighter and Softer]]: The Duel of the Dans is a story arc of complete zany nonsense, compared to the much more [[Cerebus Syndrome|dramatic]] stories that made up most of the comic.

** "You're NOT Japanese!"

* [[Roaring Rampage of Revenge]]: Naisa, against Dahn's captors. {{spoiler|She [[Disproportionate Retribution|violently murders hordes of people]] just to get to Naoko.}} And keep in mind, she's a [[Our Angels Are Different|starseed]].

* [[Self-Deprecation]]: Dan is an interesting case. On the one hand, he's [[Canon Sue|the main character who weilds incredible cosmic power]], but on the other hand, he's an [[Butt Monkey|idiot who constantly gets dumped on]].

* [[Self-Insert Fic]]: the majority of the cast were based on real life folks who Dan and Aaron knew. One of the entire story arcs involved them gathering all the [[Fan Community Nickname|BOBs]] (real people from the community) to stop [[The Legions of Hell]].

* [[Start of Darkness]]: It's implied by narration that Naisa is starting to [[Star Wars|turn to the Dark Side]], with the pivotal point being when she {{spoiler|killed Naoko and everyone who worked in the underground facility}}.

* [[Take That]]: In the vampire story arc, Danny Escalante makes fun of ''[[Vampire: The Masquerade]]'', as well as the people who play it.

* [[The American Civil War]]: Randomly referenced in a joke story arc before the comic succumbed to [[Cerebus Syndrome]].

* [[The Dragon]]: Jarris.
