Line 10:
* '''Double Subverted''': ...but his favorite hobby is building birdhouses.
* '''Parodied''': Woody's brothers are Ash and Rowan, his sister is Willow. Their father and mother were killed in a freak lathing accident and they were raised by old Ma Hogany. When Woody is bitten by a radioactive carpenter ant and given elemental powers over wood, his first thought is to call himself... Mister Amazing!
* '''Zig Zagged''': The Woodsman's backstory changes [[Depending Onon the Writer]]. Sometimes he was born Woody Carpenter, sometimes Jack Lumber. Sometimes he's Steve Bunyan, revealed to be a descendant of [[Paul Bunyan]]. Sometimes he has an entirely mundane name with nothing to do with wood. These identities are regularly [[Retcon|Ret Conned]].
* '''Averted''': The carpenter's name is Steve Smith, or something equally normal.
* '''Enforced''': It's The [[Dork Age]], and one-shot characters ''[[Running Gag|always]]'' have [[Punny Name|Punny Names]].
