Of course, Weasel Boy isn't the only hero in Supermegatopia. Often called "The [[City of Heroes]] of Webcomics", there are literally dozens of heroes and villains running around at any given time, often [[Affectionate Parody|affectionate parodies]] of existing characters. Some notable entries amongst the "spandex rats":
 
* Ferret Man: Supermegatopia's first vigilante, missing for the past three years. Combination [[Expy]] of [[Batman]] and [[The Punisher]]. Take a second for [[Oh Crap|the implications of that to sink in]].
* Avatar: An archaeologist who stumbled onto an [[Sapient Ship|ancient sentient alien spaceship]] shaped like a turtle. Unfortunately, in her rush to take advantage of the Turtle Ship's amazing powers, she forgot the medication for her multiple personality disorder, and now flits between believing she's various goddesses. While the Turtle Ship can provide the power she needs to play Zeus or whatever, it has limits (and is sane), turning her into a mostly [[Harmless Villain]].
* Buxom Gal: Given strange energy powers by aliens (who were trying to augment her breasts), Buxom Gal can fly, shoot beams of energy, and has super strength... But if she doesn't use her powers, her breasts grow to absurd sizes. Recently split into 3 clones based on hair color, the red head is evil and the black-haired one is an [[Anti-Hero]]. There is also the younger (but ''still'' well-endowed) Buxom Girl and the cojoined Buxom Twins, who were apparently part of a rash of Buxom Gal clones created by SMT's [[Mad Scientist]] population. A rather [[Captain Ersatz|obvious parody]] of [[Power Girl]], down to the costume design.
Line 18:
* Distraction Damsel: a.k.a.: [http://www.mistythemouse.com/ Misty], a character from another furry webcomic. Gets her name and powers from... well... ''[[Gag Boobs|damn...]]''
** Wait, that didn't come out right. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=95SYdjRVCR0 Craig, Smokey?]
* Captain Mayfly: One of the smallest, but most dedicated superhero legacies in the city. Captain Mayfly is, well, a ''[[wikipedia:Mayfly|Mayfly]]'', which means [[Exactly What It Says on the Tin|Exactly what you think it does]]. To their credit, however, the good Captains have kept this legacy unbroken for ''years''. The [[Legacy Character]] taken to the extreme.
* The All-Stripper Squadron: A group of superheroes who decided to take up exotic dancing. Not really much else we can add to that.
* Mad Dr. Nesbit: Supermegatopia's ''other'' resident [[Mad Scientist]]. Still has her job at Supermegatopia Labs because, unlike other Mad Docs we could name, she has no interest in ruling the world--just in donuts and a bit of sadism now and again. You're just in for a world of pain if you ever cross her. Last we saw her, she was completely occupied by the captured Mongoose Guy, and was fitting him for a saddle...
 
Line 28:
Crushed has even spawned its [http://www.rpg.net/news+reviews/reviews/rev_5247.html own d20 sourcebook,] allowing DMs to add ''The Temple of Infinite Lives'' to their own games. No, really.
 
Supermegatopia <s>also hosts</s> hosted two other sub-comics, ''They Might be Giant Robots'', which parodies the ''[[Transformers]]'' (and sometimes ''[[G.I. Joe]]''), and ''By Way of Booty Bay'' which has it's fun in the ''[[World of Warcraft]]''.
 
The site has recently undergone a revamp, and has such lost a great deal of its art. Pity.
 
Luckily, someone has put up the main "Weasel Boy" storyline [http://supermegatopia.wikispaces.com/Weasel+Boy+%28Comics%29 on wikispaces].

Line 40:
* [[Art Evolution]]: Many of the earliest comics from The Brothers were coarse, oddly inked, and difficult to follow. By the time they started ''Weasel Boy'' and ''Crushed'', the artwork had improved, and all one needs to do is read through the former from start to (current) end to see the progress.
* [[Bomb-Throwing Anarchists]]: Worse, ''atomic bomb dropping anarchists''. Where the ''hell'' did an anarchist even ''get'' an atomic bomb?
* [[Brain In a Jar]]: Jim, Dr. Nesbitt's assistant. She adds fish sometimes, as a punishment for [[You Have Failed Me...|screwing up]], or just making too many smart remarks.
* [[Canon Immigrant]]: Several fanart characters and one-shot jokes were merged into official canon later.
* [[Captain Ersatz]]: Too many to count, essentially every major Superhero in Marvel and DC comics (and a few minor ones) has one.
Line 57:
* [[I Just Want to Be Normal]]: When Buxom Gal first gets her powers, she complains loudly about how she's going to have to give up her job, how she doesn't want to have to find a costume, etc etc.
* [[Innocent Fanservice Girl]]: Double Subverted (That is to say, subverted on both counts, not a [[Double Subversion]]) with Buck Naked -- he's NOT innocent and male, to boot.
* [[Intercontinuity Crossover]]: Of sorts. Near the end of ''SMT: Deviations'', a "Master Fjord" is given a five mile long spacecraft, which he claims he can pilot. Inevitably, he plows through a moon and crashes the vessel clean into a planet, leaving with him with "a world to myself, five miles of alien technology" and a [[Dungeons and& Dragons]] Player's Guide. Fast forward, and the planet is now Char-Mon, where ''Crushed'' takes place; Fjord is still alive as The Priest Of The Temple Of Infinite Lives.
* [[Killer Rabbit]]: A number of characters are a lot more dangerous than they appear, including Zippy the Sloth and the aforementioned Hell Kitty.
* [[Loads and Loads of Characters]]: '''And How!''' So many that a large number have one appearance, and some have never showed up at all.
Line 72:
* [[Stealth Pun]]: [[wikipedia:Ghoti|Dr. Ghoti's name.]]
* [[Stripperiffic]]: There's even a superhero group dedicated to Stripperiffic outfits -- The All-Stripper Squadron, a group of superheroes and superheroines who gave up superheroing to become exotic dancers, because it's safer.
* [[Superpower Meltdown]]: Just about any time a villain is beaten, their mecha/powers/magic green rock will explode, just big enough to cause property damage and wreck the clothing of any nearby women.
* [[They Killed Kenny]]: Crushed and company.
* [[Total Party Kill]]: Has happened to Crushed and company too many times to count.
