* GoshDangItToHeck: Overlaps with CurseOfTheAncients due to the comic series' age. Everyone was using these ''way'' before UsefulNotes/TheComicsCode even existed, so it's never really caused that much awkwardness. Can you honestly picture Mickey Mouse or any of his peers using actual swear words while remaining in-character? Gottfredson and his contemporaries dealt with it by having the cast, usually Pete or a similarly easily agitated villain, utter some variant of "blanketty-blank" or more rarely resort to SymbolSwearing. Goofy has a particular funny moment when he's not allowed in the carriage at the end of ''"The Lair of Wolf Barker"'', uttering "Shucks! Darn! Heck! Gonsarn 't!" as he has to ride in a cart behind it. For a modern example, Mickey used the substitute "fun" in the line "Like fun you did!" in ''"The Shadow of the Colossus"''.

Cloning Blues renamed to Clone Angst as per TRS, specifically about angst from a character discovering that they're a clone.


* CloningBlues: ''"300 Mickeys"'' pulls this. Then again, Mickey did plan to unmake them at first and did not consider them people until they pointed out to him they were.

* ManEatingPlant: One appears in the story ''"Plotted Rant"''.



* ObviousCrossoverMethod: In ''"A Mickey Mystery"'', Doctor Einmug displays an invention that lets one see what life is like on alternate Earths and later Mickey transfers to one such world. It has been argued that Doctor Einmug should be used if there is a point and not just as a vehicle for gadget, and so far the invention has only been used for a few "Disney-like" worlds. Imagine if the invention was used for other kinds of worlds as well.

* StrawFeminist: Ida Howel in ''"The Big Switcheroo"'' is depicted as a hypocrite. Her organization is a-subtly called "Women's [[FunWithAcronyms FAL]]", which is said to stand for "Freedom And Liberty". The comic goes out of its way not to give feminism a single point in its favor.
