Line 6:
''[[United States Angels Corps]]'' was a commission-based [[Guro]] webcomic made by the artist David Cheung, of ''[[Chugworth Academy]]'' fame. The original premise featured a military group of scantly clad female agents entering in action against a terrorist faction, anywhere, in modern times... '''[[Cruel and Unusual Death|And failing]]'''.
[[Fan-Speak|Starting as a thread with an open project]] to Dave's fans at Gurochan's website, and eventually moving on to a separate website, the series first introduced four main Angels (their real names in the brackets): [[Blue Eyes|Bikini]] [[Pride|Girl]] (Alex Winters), [[Everything's Better with Princesses|Princess]] (Samantha Appleton), [[She
Due to its main themes and production basis, the comics usually never featured explicit continuity between themselves so as to avert the [[Killed Off for Real]] trope, and only sought to maintain the common background plot - minor [[retcon]]nings aside.
Line 26:
* [[Animesque]] - Typical of Dave Cheung's artworks.
* [[Applied Phlebotinum]] - Troy Hancock comes up with them all the time.
* [[Art Major Biology]] - In one of the Freebies, Princess' torso and head are treated with [[Applied Phlebotinum|a liquid that turns flesh into a rubber-like substance]]. The purpose? [[Exactly What It Says
* [[Artificial Intelligence]]: Tessa, which is a simulation software created based on all of the Angels' specialties and actions they could register in the bank, made to test all sorts of weapons, tactics and traps against them with [[Lies, Damned Lies, and Statistics|99.8%]] percent of accuracy. {{spoiler|[[Word of God]] states it was created by Troy Hancock.}}
* [[Asskicking Pose]] - Bikini Girl. Since she's basically the [[Action Girl|best all-round fighter]] of the main group, it comes as no surprise.
Line 153:
* [[Sex Is Violence]]
* [[Sexy Mentor]] - Silver being the main example as she is the oldest of the Angels, but the rest of the team end up as that to each other or to other soldiers they work with.
* [[She
* [[Shoot the Shaggy Dog]] - We're talking about a comic with a plot revolving around the main characters utterly failing, what did you expect?
* [[Shout-Out]] - Aside from already having [[Canon Immigrant]]s, we actually have a few shout-outs to other works from Dave.
** Alex's "Everyday" clothes, for example, makes her look like a revisited Ellice Matthews, with changes going from [[Big Bra to Fill|a smaller size of breasts]] to a silver bikini instead of a top. Adding the hair style change, we have a [[Fullmetal Alchemist (manga)|Winry]] lookalike Bikini Girl.
*** To a lesser extent, Samantha is a mix of Sally Richards with one of his other less known characters, [https://web.archive.org/web/20130725014213/http://orz.gurochan.net/req/src/1258439754490.jpg Lily Elliot] (Also [[NSFW]] for nudity). Note the body and other minor details such as gloves, socks and shoes.
** [[Word of God|"(Coral's) Costume colour scheme]] [[Expy|shamelessly ripped off from]] [[BlazBlue|Blazblue's Noel Vermillion]]. [[Just for Pun|Whatchu gun do bout it?!]]"
