Line 23:
In Summer of 2010, Doctor McNinja took part in a [[Crossover]] with ''[[Axe Cop]]''. In addition, on November 7, 2011, the doctor [http://www.teamfortress.com/post.php?id=6722 faced down with] [[Team Fortress 2|Saxton Hale]]. He lost, but the very ''idea'' of such a fight was awesome.

{{tropelist}}
* [[Acceptable Targets]]: Diabetics, [[In-Universe]], as far as the doctor is concerned. [http://drmcninja.com/archives/comic/3p2 They're] [http://drmcninja.com/archives/comic/3p5 always] [http://drmcninja.com/archives/comic/3p24 whining].
Line 29 ⟶ 33:

* [[Affably Evil]]: Dracula.
* [[The Ahnold]]: Frans Rayner, although his backstory actually hews closer to The [[Jean
* [[All Myths Are True]]: And ''will'' show up in the current arc if they get so much as a passing mention.
* [[Alt Text]]: Musings on the story, a pithy phrase, the punchline to the strip or even [http://drmcninja.com/archives/comic/15p44 little] [http://drmcninja.com/archives/comic/15p46 stories] are all stuck in here. It can generally be assumed that even if the strip itself does not contain a joke, the [[Alt Text]] will. Chris will also bitch about how hard pirate hats are to draw whenever there are pirates, because perspective is difficult with their odd shape. He hates trees too.
Line 58 ⟶ 62:

Line 298 ⟶ 302:
{{quote|Do you think I run around with a ''twelve year old boy'' just because I like his inferior grasp of girls and higher level math? Do you think I left him with my psychotic parents because I wanted him to '''die'''? '''No''', you undead pale ponce! '''Gordito''' is the effing '''badass kid'''. So go ahead and finish up your masterful scheme to make me let you kill me, because Gordito's going to slap around whatever ghost lackey you have like he was a pinata on the Mexican day of the dead."}}
** The [[Mummy]] that accompanies Archibald King of the Hoboes, which grants him immortality and protects him from assassination attempts.
* [[Hypothetical Casting]]: [http://www.comicmix.com/news/2008/06/04/interview-chris-hastings-on-the-adventures-of-dr-mcninja/ In this interview], creator Chris Hastings said that his casting choices for a ''Dr. McNinja'' movie would be [[Sam Rockwell]] or Will Arnett as the Doc, Sam Elliot or [[Hulk Hogan]] as Dan McNinja, and [[Anjelica Huston]] as Mitzi McNinja. The villains would include Williem Dafoe as Donald McBonald, [[Jean
* [[I Am One of Those, Too]]: Subverted -- Sean calls Gordito out on his inner geekiness, only to backpedal rapidly as he realizes he has just revealed his own.

* [[Like You Would Really Do It]]: [[Lampshade Hanging|Lampshaded]] by the [[Alt Text]] on [http://drmcninja.com/archives/comic/14p52 this page]. And then on [http://drmcninja.com/archives/comic/17p80 this one] too, for good measure.
* [[
* [[Load-Bearing Boss]]: [http://drmcninja.com/archives/comic/14p62 Inverted]: ''losing'' to the giant robot causes everything to fall apart.
* [[Loan Shark]]: [http://drmcninja.com/archives/comic/13p27 Lampshaded and mocked].
Line 372 ⟶ 377:

Line 457 ⟶ 461:
{{quote|'''Dan:''' Ha. Alright kids, not bad. Not bad. How about a drink in honor of all your beginners luck? Here. I'll pour you a Molson. It's got a higher alcohol content than most American beers. And maybe that will help sterilize all those cuts on your face.

* [[Retcon]]: On January 30 2012, the return of the [[McNinja]] burger in-comic, Hastings went and changed all "[[McDonald's]]" references to "McBonalds" so that he wouldn't have any legal issues printing the book later, including a modified logo and renaming Ronald McDonald to Donald McBonald. The protest signs [http://drmcninja.com/archives/comic/0p4/ on this page] only had strokes added over the D's to change them to B's, rather than the letters being redrawn.
* [[Rise
* [[The Rival]]: Doctor McLuchadore is this to Dr. McNinja. Apparently the former's tendency to treat his patients via insane wrestling moves got on the latter's nerves and the ninja-doctor ran the wrestler-doctor out.

Line 554 ⟶ 558:

Line 566 ⟶ 569:
{{quote|'''Dr. McNinja''': I'm really sorry, but it looks like the test confirmed it, and your cancer is back. But I do have some good news.
'''Patient''': "Didja save a bunch of money on your car insurance, Doc?"

'''Patient''': "I'm sorry."
'''Dr. McNinja''': [[Jerkass|"You should be."]] }}

** Let's not forget the patron saint King Radical.
* [[Training
* [[Traitor Shot]]: Lampshaded by "Victor the plumber" in [http://drmcninja.com/archives/comic/14p22 this comic].
