''[[The Challenges of Zona]]'' is a webcomic by J.E. Draft, begun in 2005. It is a sequel to an earlier work, ''The Three Challenges of Zona''. Despite the title, the viewpoint character is a second-rate busker called Mentl, who finds a [[Great Big Book of Everything]] and is transported to a fantasy world where he discovers both the love of the title character and the ability to cast magic through his music. He then {{spoiler|becomes convinced that Zona only loves him because he inadvertantly enchanted her, goes back home, and Zona is left to carry on alone while Mentl gets drunk and farts around back on earth.}} After which the viewpoint splits into many.

{{tropelist}}
* [[Amazonian Beauty]]: Zona.
* [[Aristocrats Are Evil]]: Averted with the Erogenians, with the exception, so far, of [[Jerk Jock]] Pontagar. The Kivalians are a more mixed bag. Prince Maldik is [[The Caligula]], Queen Yanora is a [[Magnificent Bastard|Magnificent Bitch]], but Count Tethik is definitely one of the good guys.
Line 18 ⟶ 19:
* [[Blood Knight]]: Yatta-Ta is a parody of this.
* [[Break the Cutie]]: Done inadvertantly to {{spoiler|Ginsha}} by {{spoiler|Mentl}}
* [[Bullying a Dragon]]: Even A [[Gentle Giant]] like Keltan [http://www.soulgeek.com/comics/zona/2011/04/01/page=451 has]{{Dead link}} [http://www.soulgeek.com/comics/zona/2011/04/05/page=452 his limits]{{Dead link}}
* [[Cool Old Guy]]: Vito
* [[Crystal Dragon Jesus]]: The Church of Thrasu in Kivallia.
Line 33 ⟶ 34:
* [[Heroic BSOD]]: Mentl has one after {{spoiler|he becomes convinced that Zona only loves him because he inadvertently enchanted her}}
* [[Hot Amazon]]: Zona
* [[Hot Mom]]: Ipola. [https://web.archive.org/web/20120704093014/http://www.soulgeek.com/comics/zona/2009/10/16/page-315/ See for yourself.] Yanora too.
* [[I Want My Beloved to Be Happy]]: {{spoiler|Why Mentl goes back to our world.}}
* [[Invisible to Gaydar]]: Count Tethik. In fact although he lacks the bulk and over-the-top trappings of the usual [[Hard Gay]] he's every bit as tough. [https://web.archive.org/web/20120704092928/http://www.soulgeek.com/comics/zona/2009/09/01/page-304/ as] [https://web.archive.org/web/20120704094245/http://www.soulgeek.com/comics/zona/2009/09/04/page-305/ shown] [https://web.archive.org/web/20120704094250/http://www.soulgeek.com/comics/zona/2009/09/08/page-306/ here].
* [[Large Ham]]: Yatta-ta
* [[Manly Gay]]: Count Tethik
* [[Music Magic]]
* [[Musical Assassin]]: [https://web.archive.org/web/20120706181521/http://www.soulgeek.com/comics/zona/2008/09/12/page-214/ Mentl].
* [[No Celebrities Were Harmed]]: The ruling family of Kivallia bears an awfully strong resemblance to the Plantagents. Maldik (Prince John), Yanora (Eleanor of Acquitaine) and the absent Gudik (Richard the Lion Hearted).
* [[The Obi-Wan]]: Vito
