'''''[http://fancyadventures.com/ The Fancy Adventures Of Jack Cannon]''''' is a webcomicweb comic that is written and drawn by Jamie Anderson.
 
Until recently, Jack Cannon has been home schooled. His life changed drastically when he started going to High School.
Line 7:
On his first day in High School, Jack becomes friends with two girls named Angel and Cindy. He also got to know the resident [[Jerkass]] Craig, who is a [[The Cracker|Hacker]], and not the usual kind of hacker. No, ''these'' hackers are people who hack ''[[Reality Warper|reality]]''. Jack is going to have some serious problems...
 
The strip was on hiatus for years starting in 2016, until a new strip was posted in January 2023.

* [[Accidental Truth]]: Angel telling Craig that Jack is "the most [[Badass]] fighter ever" in hopes it will save his skin.
Line 31 ⟶ 33:
** Also:
{{quote|'''Gavin:''' Jack.
'''Jack:''' [[Flat What|What]].
'''Gavin:''' I made you a dinosaur.
Jack stares at the T-Rex for a moment before yelling "Oh Gaaawd!" and jumping into its mouth. He then [http://fancyadventures.com/2011/11/28/page-348/ explodes it FROM THE INSIDE] }}
** The author's note even says "If this is your first time reading, you picked a hell of a page to start with."
* [[Curb Stomp Battle]]: Jack's [[Evil Knockoff]] never stood a [http://fancyadventures.com/2011/12/05/page-350/ chance].
* [[Cybernetics Eat Your Soul]]: {{spoiler|what happened to Gavin after he'd uploaded his personality to the server.}}
* [[The Determinator]]: Max, on a [http://fancyadventures.com/2010/09/03/page-224/ couple] [http://fancyadventures.com/2010/11/19/page-242/ occasions].
** Jack. The dude punches through 20 feet of dirt after being buried by a stone golem thing.
* [[Damsel in Distress]]: This occurred with Angel and Cindy early on (twice). It also occurred with {{spoiler|Jack's parents, who were used as a bargaining chip.}} Recently, it happened twice more with {{spoiler|Crystal also being used as a bargaining chip, and Angel being captured by Craig again.}}
Line 61 ⟶ 63:
** This probably applies to the hackers as well. They all get taken out very easily, but their [[Reality Warper|reality warping]] powers prove very effective when they're used intelligently. Most of the defeated hackers have been taken out with a single hit.
* [[Government Agency of Fiction]]: Mega Intelligence
* [[Homeschooled Kids]]: The strip begins with Jack's first day of public school after having been home-schooled his whole life.
* [[Hotblooded Sideburns]]: Max Facepuncher sports a pretty wicked pair.
* [[I Always Wanted to Say That]]: Gavin [http://fancyadventures.com/2011/01/31/page-262/ here]
Line 77 ⟶ 79:
* [[No-Holds-Barred Beatdown]]: Looks like the fight between {{spoiler|Max Facepuncher and Gavin is going to end up like. Justified in that Gavin isn't really there and Max Facepuncher's cockiness was his downfall.}}
* [[Nonuniform Uniform]]: [[Word of God]] confirms it's set in an Australian school that does have a uniform; most students either wear whatever they want over it or ignore it completely.
* [[Not So Harmless]]: For much of the comic, the Hackers seem less than a serious threat, due to how easily Jack and his family handle them. However, the true horror of what the Hackers could do to someone is not made fully apparent until they {{spoiler|change Franky into a monster and force him into attack Jack. That's right, the Hackers could turn anyone other than Jack into monsters and send them to attack him. Including his parents, his friends, ANYONE. Apparently the only reason they haven't is because Grin is the only person skilled enough (asides from Gavin) to do it properly, and [[Even Evil Has Standards|after Franky she refuses to do it again.]] However, it's possible that not only could Gavin do it properly, but effortlessly, if he so chose, since apparently he can perform extremely complex hacks with <s>a snap of his fingers</s> numpad gloves.}}
* [[Oh Crap]]: Jack, quite a few times
** Somewhat justified when you're fighting people who can hack reality
Line 95 ⟶ 97:
{{quote|'''Frankie:''' Oh god oh god oh god...
'''Gavin:''' Please stop calling me that. }}
* [[Space Base]]: Hackers get one. Likely the reason Mega Intelligence hasn't brought them down yet.
* [[Spoof Aesop]]: "Great, so my first day at school teaches me to hit people and lie to my parents."
** "Both are important life lessons, kid."
* [[Stating the Simple Solution]]:
{{quote|'''Lipbite:''' How come you don't just, you know, blow up their house or something?
'''Grin:''' Because I'm not a ''dick''? }}
* [[Stealth Pun]]: A visual pun here: [http://fancyadventures.com/2010/08/20/page-220/ They "hacked" his leg off.]
* [[Those Two Girls]]: Angel and Cindy.
* [[Tough Love]]: Jack's mother threw knives at him to teach him good reflexes.
** And more recently,{{when}} snakes
** AND POISONED HIS BREAKFAST AND DINNER.
* [[Training Fromfrom Hell]]: See above.
** Recently intensified {{spoiler|due to Jack's [[Curb Stomp Battle]] at the hands of a seriously hacked Frankie}}
* [[Villainous BSOD]]: Brought to a whole new meaning [http://fancyadventures.com/2012/02/13/page-367/ here]
Line 112 ⟶ 114:
{{quote|'''Grin:''' {{spoiler|WHAT?! Why... Why can't I hack you?}}
'''Jack:''' * A shrug that says, better than words ever could, "How the hell should I know?"* }}
* [[Would NotWouldn't Hit a Girl]]: Averted hard, thanks to Max Facepuncher. Twice, up to this point in the story.
** Of course, while the first time was a pretty jerk-assed thing to do (he pimp-smacked Cindy right after she kicked him in the 'nads to protect Jack), the second was entirely justified.
