** The earlier strips are less contemporary, unlike later issues (when the book is in double-digits) which relies on current pop-culture, resulting in later books feeling ''more'' dated - for instance, issue 11 containing multiple references and an author's dedication to Steve Jobs (since it's published in 2011, the same year Jobs passed away), while issue 17 having multiple strips cracking jokes about Superman losing his underwear (a reference to the then-upcoming ''Man of Steel'').

* CulturalTranslation: A localized example, but the comics are available in Malay, English, and Mandarin Chinese to reflect the various races in Malaysia, with some differences in the gags depending on the language used. Notably, in the Malay version the characters are clearly Muslim and celebrates Hari Raya Aidilfitri, while in the Mandarin version they're celebrating Chinese New Year (a ''ketupat'' joke in the Malay version was changed to the ''Fu'' ['''福'''] symbol in the Chinese version).

* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: A given since the series has been around for two decades, and it's especially prominent when re-reading ''Lawak Kampus'' (2004) and ''Rebound'' (2005).
** The first issue runs less on {{animesque}} and has an art-style closer to localized, Malaysian comics (think ''Ujang'' magazine) with thicker pen lines, dotted eyes, and a somewhat inconsistent art form (because it's the only book with two artists, Keith and Zeloo).
** The gross-out humor the books are known for are downplayed, only comic strips featuring Bepop or Aditas (respectively acne problems and sweatiness) would use this type of humor. Later books uses it ''everywhere''.
** Cikgu Noodle is introduced as Cikgu "Nicholas". Because back then Keith intended for the character to be a parody of Hong Kong actor Creator/NicholasTse, but later shifts the parody to Ekin "Noodle" Cheng.
