History Webcomic / ParadoxSpace

''Paradox Space'' is a SpinOff of ''Webcomic/{{Homestuck}}'', updated every weekday. A webcomic anthology, it was launched on 4/13/2014, ''Homestuck's'' fifth anniversary, as a surprise for the Homestuck fandom, and motivated by the desires of Creator/AndrewHussie to ensure that the world of ''Homestuck'' wouldn't be completely limited to what he had the time and energy to create. It can be found [[http://hs.hiveswap.com/paradoxspace/archive.php here.]]

* MyLittlePhony: In "Pones", [[Webcomic/SweetBroAndHellaJeff Sweet Bro]] is playing with a magenta / rainbow colored unicorn. Hella Jeff thinks that this means Sweet Bro will want to be the back of his [[PantomimeAnimal horse costume]].

* PokemonSpeak: In "Summerteen Romance", while reading Karkat's screenplay, Dave complains about Bro calling himself "Bro" and saying the word "bro" all the time, because he's "not a fucking {{Franchise/Pokemon}}".
* PoliceProcedural: Parodied in "Ace Sleuth Jane."
* {{Pun}}: in "Summer Sea Fun":

* The Morel of the Story: The tale of a salamander farmer. (P. Gibson)

* PoliticalCorrectnessGoneMad: Kankri's complaint about cultural appropriation and multiculturalism in "Secret Sufferer" -- because trolls also had a gift-giving holiday he believed Dave was stealing from troll culture and

* SuddenAnatomy: [[TheBlank Bro]] briefly gains eyes, eyebrows, and a mouth in [[http://www.paradoxspace.com/summerteen-romance/37 this page]] of "Summerteen Romance."

* FacelessMasses: Lampshaded in "Suffering Through / For The People", when the Signless calls on someone from the otherwise-faceless crowd with "Next question. Yes, you with the face."

* EverythingsBetterWithMonkeys: A bunch of monkeys live in the zoo in "John's Birthday."

* MrFanservice:
** If "Suffering Through/For The People" is to be believed, the Signless had enough admirers, given that trolls as a species are bisexual, for at least one of them to demand that he take his shirt off during one of his rallies. [[FridgeLogic How they expected him to do that when he doesn't really wear a shirt in the first place is anyone's guess]].
** In "Summerteen Romance", Karkat portrays himself as a muscular {{Bishonen}} hunk in his AU.

The following stories have been told so far (with writers & artists noted):

* "Suffering Through/For The People": The Signless answers questions from the masses. (Zack Morrison, E.K Weaver, Adrienne Garcia)

** In "Summerteen Romance," Karkat and Dave do.
-->'''Dave''': can we just agree that paradox space sucks and be done with it
-->'''Karkat''': ''([[AsideGlance Looking at the "camera"]])'' AND MAKE THIS PANEL EXPLOITABLE?
-->'''Karkat''': HELL NO

* "Hospitality": Gamzee visits Eridan in LOWAA. (Alex Rofael & Mary Cagle (''Webcomic/LetsSpeakEnglish'')

* "Summerteen Romance": The trolls go to summer camp. (Jonathan Griffiths, Zack Morrison, Tauhid Bondia, & Shelby Cragg)

--'''Vriska:''' Equius, we never really TALK, do we? We live RIGHT NEXT to each other. We should hang out more!\\

* "Con Faire": The cast participate in the Teen Film/ConAir re-enactment contest. (David [=McGuire=] (''Webcomic/GastroPhobia''))

* "Ace Sleuth Jane": Jane starts an investigation about who ate her sandwich. (David [=McGuire=])

* {{Adorkable}}:
** John in every comic he's in; a given as he just wouldn't be John Egbert if he weren't adorkable. He's ''really'' this in "You Have a Feeling It's Going to Be a Long Day" and "Con Fair", though.
** Vriska and Eridan, of all people, are this in "Critical Miss", where they can be seen playing [=FLARPing=] and at the beginning, they're hunched over rule books and character manuals. Eridan especially, with his hilariously bad attempts at flirting and accusing Vriska of cheating.

** "Summerteen Romance" is a mostly comedic parody of AU fanfics with Karkat portraying himself as a MartyStu and [[FixFic everyone getting what they want and not dying]]. Then the penultimate page has his future self harshly criticizing all the WishFulfillment, in a very soul-crushingly depressing way as opposed to the usual comedic arguing that one would usually expect from Karkat talking to himself.

* LighterAndSofter: The vast majority of strips are lighter in tone than ''Homestuck'' proper. Yes, including the one involving Gamzee's [[CringeComedy raving insanity and corpse-mutilation]].

* DracoInLeatherPants: Eridan, Gamzee, Vriska and Equius, who have all their bad traits diminished and avoided with Jack, who's pretty much the same. The most notable example, however, is Terezi; she befriends Vriska instead of killing her, an act which sent the real Terezi spiraling into grief and self-loathing for three years.
