Line 19:
* [[Eagle Land]]: Definitely a Flavor 1 example, although Verne's not nearly as overt here as he was with ''From the Earth To The Moon''.
* [[Executive Meddling]]
* [[Five -Man Band]]
** [[The Hero]]: Cyrus Smith
** [[The Lancer]]: Pencroff
Line 33:
* [[Large Ham]]: Pencroff
* [[Misplaced Vegetation]] / [[Misplaced Wildlife]] : Lincoln Island has almost implausible levels of biodiversity and has species that couldn't realistically exist in the latitude it's supposed to lie in. This was something already noted by Verne's ''contemporaries''. His answer ? A wink, followed by a 19. century version of the [[MST3K Mantra]] slash [[Rule of Cool]] argument.
* [[The Remnant]]: {{spoiler|Nemo}}'s origin reveals that he is an exiled Indian prince [[Shell -Shocked Veteran|still fighting]] the Sepoy Rebellion and hating the British.
* [[The Reveal]]
* [[Robinsonade]]: This is played straight with the colonists, but deconstructed with {{spoiler|Ayrton}}. Apparently his loneliness is to blame for the state in which they find him.
