* BloodyBowelsOfhell: one punishment is being fused into a huge, writhing gob of meat, similar in form to a Gibbering Wad from D&D.

* PlotWithPorn: It's distracting how often the odd amount of graphic sex, topless girls, and unneeded frontal nudity gets in the way of the plot. The fact that he advertises his commissions below his pages with drawings of porn doesn't help.

* SelfInflictedHell
** Sorta. While it ''is'' true that you can't leave until you let yourself, whether you arrive in the first place is pretty objective.

* PrisonRape

** Personal threat/City threat: Vanity and Gluttony. Although they either peal your [[strike: skin]] Fur off and wear it or eat you alive, they constituted no more that personal threats in life, and severe personal threats if encountered in hell, they have also, unlike Drip, set out of their own initiative large-scale activates interfering in earth's affairs from beyond the grave such as large-scale disasters such as plane crashes (the Gluttonies) and using an fallen Angel lover to lure several apartment-blocks of living souls into Faustian contracts (Vanity)

* DaysOfFuturePast: Apparently, when furrykind annihilated the human race (their creators), they ended up being knocked back into medieval society, working their way back up to what we would call the present day and beyond. An obvious piece of evidence for this is the first official playing card deck, which shows that when Farrago was alive, she was a medieval-style knight or warrior.

* GovernmentConspiracy: The American government knows that furrykind was created in a laboratory by humans, who used to be the only sentient species on Earth. They currently have archaeologists doing research in the ruins of that lab, which is also heavily guarded. Anyone who blabs about furrykind's secret origins would likely be secretly killed, but given the widespread panic and existential angst such blabbing would cause (i.e. 'We're all descendants of lab-grown creatures, therefore WE HAVE NO SOULS!'), this is a wise policy.
** [[OurSoulsAreDifferent Since they most defiantly do HAVE souls]] and the government knows it because of Kane's resurrection machine, the government essentially knows that there IS an afterlife, and is keeping that under wraps. Not so much 'We're all descendants of lab-grown creatures, therefore WE HAVE NO SOULS!' but more sort of 'We're all descendants of lab-grown creatures, AND WE CAN STILL END UP IN HELL!' Unless of course the Government thinks that being brought back to life sent that poor woman crazy and she hallucinated the whole thing.
*** So, if they didn't believe her, they're hiding perceived disproff of the afterlife. If they ''did'', they're hiding perceived ''proof'' of ''religion''. One wonders which would be mroe dangerous.

** [[spoiler: Except the sheep telling the Samson story is {{God}}, who you would hope would remember, and who seems to have been forced, with no humans left, to press the cosmic "reset" button and start over with what s/he had left, as Reckonin’ says in ‘Sever the Hunger’.]]

* FridgeHorror: [[http://www.pholph.com/strip.php?id=5&sid=679 "I'll head to Taco hell after I check outta here".]]
* FridgeLogic: If the furries were created by humans with genetic engineering, why are there furry veterans of World War I and Vietnam in Hell?
** How exactly did a man living under a bridge convince the gas, water, and electric companies to give him their services, especially when he doesn't appear to have a job.

* AscendedFanon: Within the series' universe. [[spoiler:''Literally.'' When humanity died in the Human-Furry War and furrykind failed to learn from man's mistakes, God ensured that the ensuing history would follow that which came before (sans biological-warfare-apocalypse) as closely as possible. However, certain furry works of fiction, such as {{Extinctioners}} and TheFundayPawpetShow, are now mainstream works.]]

** Universal threat: Wrath. Jack. In his afterlife, the one nice guy out of the lot. [[spoiler:In his life, he wiped out humanity and '''''[[HistoryRepeats Broke Time!]]'''''. The damage he did to the universe was so great God basically had to press the "Reset History" button to fix it (although the early history of furrykind erased most traces of humanity, negative the need for a physical reset). Even in Death it's hinted his SuperPoweredEvilSide could wipe the floor with the all other Sins and pose a threat to any and all nearby angels if he ever truly lost control of it.]]

* CosmicRetcon: Apparrently God hit the big ole Cosmic reset button after the fall of humanity. However, it wasn't a reboot of the physical universe - Miller's Hill remain, and the next incarnation of the United States Government found it.

* CosmicRetcon: Apparrently God hit the big ole Cosmic reset button after the fall of humanity. Wether it's a retcon replacing all humans with furry counterparts,[[spoiler: Or a complete reboot of the universe wherein HistoryRepeats]] is unknown.

** Universal threat: Wrath. Jack. In his afterlife, the one nice guy out of the lot. [[spoiler:In his life, he wiped out humanity and '''''[[HistoryRepeats Broke Time!]]'''''. The damage he did to the universe was so great God basically had to press the "Reset History" button, possibly for the entire multiverese, to fix it. Even in Death it's hinted his SuperPoweredEvilSide could wipe the floor with the all other Sins and pose a threat to any and all nearby angels if he ever truly lost control of it.]]

* Mondegreen: Susan in the Megan's Run arc probably has some disorder that makes her hear one of these every other sentence. Either that or Hopkins thinks that children are actually like this.

** Or if they've been brutalized like [[spoiler:Vinci]] in the side story [[http://www.pholph.com/strip.php?id=7&sid=3238 "Pikri Alitheia"]] after [[spoiler: trying to defend Bashful and being half-devoured by the Gorshes]]. The line [[spoiler:"I am alone"]] seems to imply [[spoiler: Vinci's]] redemption reset button's been hit completely.
