All the references and homages along the way haven't been just for laughs, they are the entire point of Homestuck. The only things that really matter are John, who is a reincarnation of [[NicolasCage Cameron Poe]], and the bunny. The other kids? The trolls? The paradox clones? SBURB? The creation of alternate universes? Lord English? [[TimeyWimeyBall The weird time shit?]] All the other plot elements that don't make sense? [[RedHerring Red herrings]], all of them.

[[CaptianObvious Davesprite did that.]] Meaning, he's having some really dark thoughts going through his mind while he's floating in the battlefield, alone, doomed to die in some way, shape or form. Thanks to the skip, he's going to have a ''loooooooooot'' of time to himself for that kind of thing.

They shall form a single being: an amorpheus mass of blackness and screaming faces from the various Jack Noirs. And it will be known as the [[ComicBook/HawkMan Jack-snarl]].

Let's look at it, shall we? First of all, the symbol of Sburb is a spirograph, which by design is made up of spirals. It's also associated with the colour green, as seen in the Spirograph, the block-house symbol, and the First Guardians, and Spiral Energy is green. It can create matter through alchemisation and deploying objects. ''Homestuck'' uses a prominent genetics motif in the Pesterchum initials and Ectobiology, while Spiral Energy is the force behind evolution and genetics are reflected in the names of Lord '''Genome''' and his generals. Additionally, the kids are making use of Spiral Energy - when John "did the windy thing", the Breeze manifested in a giant spiral, and then later, ''air drills''. Rose, through her attempts to break the system, is ROW ROW FIGHTING THE POWER. And the Dersites, being black, smooth, hairless, and with white highlights, resemble Anti-Spirals, a fitting role for those who oppose the kids and Skaia, which is a well of Spiral Energy. The reason that Sburb targets its meteors at the players and their home planets is more than a coincidence; it's to prevent Spiral Nemesis by taking out the number of potential users. Eventually, on the future Earth, the remnants of humanity, having moved underground, will form a civilisation, and the technology used in Sburb will be used to create the Gunmen, another invention that allows Spiral Races to use Spiral Energy. Of the carapace creatures who took up residence on Earth, the Prospitians, as the guardians of Skaia, may have adapted Sburb's methods of harnessing Spiral Energy to create the Gunmen, however, since we never see any in ''Gurren Lagann'' they were probably driven to extinction by the Beastmen. Meanwhile the Derseites, refusing to compromise their plans of destroying Skaia, seal away their consciousness and become the first Anti-Spirals. Lord Genome is in charge of Skaiainet and was responsible for coding Sburb. He will also eventually use Ectobiology to create the Beastmen by combining the paradox slime from humans and animals. And, going with an above theory, Bro is not the reincarnation of Kamina, but Kamina (and, by extension, the Super Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann) is the reincarnation of Bro.

This one is fairly self-explanitory. Homestuck will end with a flash depicting the main characters (or at least the ones that are left) together, and, right as a character's in the middle of something, bam! Cut to black out of nowhere.

This is why people consistently reference ''piloting'' Derse's moon into the Furthest Ring instead of "letting it float on momentum out there and hoping it doesn't crash into squiddles" despite no shown intent of using time powers to minimize Furthest Ring timespace weirdness. They activate automatically on a bunch of spiky buildings (probably the taller structures at the points of the pentagon seen when looking at the moon) in case of the moon being knocked out of orbit to avoid crashing into anything on accident.

* The implications of this are ''staggering''. Hussie the character is the son of Charles Dutton, the First Son of Skaia. Assuming that this makes Dutton the "Dad" figure, a constant placeholder between Ancestor and Descendant who remains between Scratches, that means that Dutton's father- that is, Skaia itself, the setting equivalent to God- is, in reality, JossWhedon. Which really explains quite a bit, when you think about it.
