** and in the Savage World timeline, Rapture kills her former pimp by grabbing his crotch and electrocuting him through it.
* [[Guarding the Portal]]: Regarding the interdimensional portal built in Dragon's basement:
{{quote| '''Angel''': How come we have one of ''those''?<br />
'''Dragon''': ''I'm'' in charge of it. I have to make sure no monsters escape.<br />
'''Angel''': If we didn't have it, no monsters ''could'' escape.<br />
'''Dragon''': Uh... yeah, well, you see... why don't you go bother your mother? }}
* [[Heroes-R-Us]]: SOS
Line 95:
* [[I Did What I Had to Do]]: Amnesiac-Kurr-Dragon says this to Malcolm after killing Darkworld-Dragon and eating his brain to ensure he doesn't come back.
* [[Improvised Weapon]]:
{{quote| '''Dragon''': There wasn't a gun. No bullet, either. I didn't have one on me, so I chewed on a dime while I was scaling the building and I spit it through his forehead.}}
* [[Invisible President]]: Averted for every sitting president since the series started. When Dragon wakes up in the first issue, he mentions that George Bush (senior) is the president but has [[Laser-Guided Amnesia|no information regarding his own name]]. Later in the series, Bill Clinton, George W. Bush, and Barak Obama all make appearances while in office.
** Even Al Gore appears as president in one issue ( {{spoiler|he was appointed after Clinton got killed}}).
Line 152:
* [[Space Police]]: The Cosmic Cops
* [[Spoof Aesop]]: After Dragon and Angel's run-in with Candyman:
{{quote| '''Dragon''': Well, I hope you learned something today, Angel...<br />
'''Angel''': Oh, I did. I learned was that you need good traction to run on chocolate.<br />
'''Dragon''': That's not really what I meant...<br />
'''Angel''': That, and it's possible to choke down broccoli if it's properly prepared. }}
* [[Spotting the Thread]]: Dragon is approached on two separate occasions by imposters impersonating dead lovers of his. Both times, he can tell by their mannerisms, inflection, and choice of words that they're fakes.
Line 174:
* [[Transformation Ray]]: In the wake of ''[[Mars Attacks!]] [[Image Comics]]'', there are Martian shrinking rays floating around. Dragon shrinks a bunch of villains with one, and later gets hit by one himself.

Bar patrons flee in a panic.<br />
Dragon [[Face Palm|facepalms]]: "Oh, for Christ's sake...!" }}
* [[Wham! Episode]]: Issue 76, the comic's setting suddenly changes to '''The Savage World''', the page layout changes, the sex and profanity is gone (for a little while, at least), there are a lot more thought bubbles, and the comic acquires a new third-person [[Narrator]].
