* [[Art Evolution]]: [https://web.archive.org/web/20110824004827/http://www.applegeeks.com/comics/viewcomic.php?issue=195 This] is #195, and the style of any non-guest comic before it. [https://web.archive.org/web/20110824051030/http://www.applegeeks.com/comics/viewcomic.php?issue=196 This] is #196. It then gets even [[Darker and Edgier]] just a few comics later before reverting to something similar to the second style as of [https://web.archive.org/web/20110824043554/http://www.applegeeks.com/comics/viewcomic.php?issue=219 #219], only to change styles again later--right around #300 or so. Also, starting with [httphttps://wwwweb.archive.org/web/20130313142812/http://applegeeks.com/comics/viewcomic.php?issue=380 #380], Yuko Ota became part-time artist, causing yet another [[Art Shift]]. Officially, <s>his</s> [[Bifauxnen|her]] name is only on #380-382, #485, and #493-496 (current), although shortly after the first guest appearance, the difference between Haque's style and Ota's narrowed quite a bit, for one final art shift (thus far).
** Heck, even the character's skin tones have shifted (most evident in Hawk, who now looks much more like Haque, [[Author Avatar|on whom he's based]]).
* [[Author Avatar]]: Hawk/Haque
Line 16:
* [[Funny Background Event]]: Twice, one when Hawk begins work on Eve (before she got a human body) and when Hawk returned home to eat a bunch of donuts.
* [[Lampshade Hanging]]: On the rampant [[Product Placement]]
* [[Masquerade]]: Pushed to breaking point with Eve - She largely avoids attention despite her [[You Gotta Have Blue Hair|bright blue hair]], [[Power Glows|glowing parts]], [[Laser Blade|energy blades]], facial markings and body armor as people believe her to be a cosplayer. ''Who'' exactly they think she's cosplaying as is never mentioned. This gets played with in [https://web.archive.org/web/20110823225957/http://www.applegeeks.com/comics/viewcomic.php?issue=497 #497] where Gina's friend thinks Eve is in costume, and, when Eve says she's actually a robot, doesn't believe her.
* [[Ooh, Me Accent's Slipping]] - Gina originally had a fairly [[Narm|Narmy]] irish accent, but this was quickly dropped after a couple of issues.
* [[Orphaned Series]]: In the middle of a time travel arc, no less.
Line 25:
* [[Ship Tease]]: Gina/Hawk looked like it was going to happen for awhile, but that's changed. Also occurred earlier with [[Heroes Want Redheads|Naku]]/Hawk, though this subplot abruptly vanished along with both [[Brother Chuck|Naku]] and her [[Write Who You Know|real-life counterpart.]]
* [[Show Some Leg]]: Gina distracts her foe by flashing...[[Les Yay|her.]]
* [["Shut Up" Kiss]]: Issue [https://web.archive.org/web/20110822012923/http://www.applegeeks.com/comics/viewcomic.php?issue=496 496].
* [[Talking Animal]]: It's actually just a figment of Hawk's imagination.
* [[Token Minority]]: Hawk may or may not qualify as a [[Twofer Token Minority]], as he is black and Muslim (as evidenced by his honoring Ramadan); but the "Token" part is misleading as he is modeled after the original artist.
