History Webcomic / TheFancyAdventuresOfJackCannon

* MookFaceTurn: Frankie [[spoiler:well, not really]].

** One might argue that with recent developments that he's BadassAbnormal, but [[spoiler: since his only abnormality is that he at least partially negates any and all hackings in the area, ]] it could be argued that he's so badass normal that [[spoiler: he normalizes everything around him.]]

* NoHoldsBarredBeatDown: Looks like the fight between [[spoiler: Max Facepuncher and Gavin is going to end up like. Justified in that Gavin isn't really there and Max Facepuncher's cockiness was his downfall.]]

* WouldNotHitAGirl: Averted hard, thanks to Max Facepuncher. Twice, up to this point in the story.

** Recently, the comic is starting to explore what happens if you [[spoiler: put a person who unconciously negates hacks into a space station hacked into existence.]]
* ButtMonkey: Lipbite, he keeps getting beat up, amusingly.

* DistressedDamsel: This occurred with Angel and Cindy early on (twice). It also occurred with [[spoiler: Jack's parents, who were used as a bargaining chip.]] Recently, it happened twice more with [[spoiler: Crystal also being used as a bargaining chip, and Angel being captured by Craig again.]]
* DistressedDude: Happened briefly with the principal in two early stories. [[spoiler: Jack's father and Max]] were also put in the state [[spoiler: and used as bargaining chip. I'm sensing a pattern.]]

* EvenEvilHasStandards: Grin, who, [[spoiler: after hacking Franky, refuses to do a hack like that again. Gavin agrees to it, since Grin feels so strongly about it.]] Even Gavin has standards, as he [[spoiler: states that he did not go after Jack's parents since they were protecting their own, and he could understand that. However, he did use the fact that he could go after Jack's parents at any time he liked to pressure him into accepting a truce between the two of them, saying, "I'm not a murderer, but I am a killer."]] It doesn't seem shared among the underlings.

* SadisticChoice: There's an interesting (and complicated) example. Jack Cannon has to choose between [[spoiler: his parents or Angel. If he rescues Angel, Gavin will kill his parents.]] However, there are two different villains operating separately here, one having merely threatened, and the other having kidnapped. To complicate things further, one of the villains is working for the other and may have broken the rules within the organization. This means that Jack may not actually have to TakeAThirdOption or make a choice. Since Jack doesn't know all of the details, for him it is a sadistic choice.

* ShirtlessScene: Max has gotten one recently. Despite being [[http://fancyadventures.com/2010/11/15/page-241/ completely covered in bruises]], he still manages to look [[MrFanservice pretty hot]] with his [[http://fancyadventures.com/2010/11/19/page-242/ buff physique]] (?!!).

** And more recently, snakes

** Recently intensified [[spoiler: due to Jack's {{curb stomp battle}} at the hands of a seriously hacked Frankie]]

'''Jack:''' * A shrug that says, better than words ever could, "How the hell should I know?"*

* NotSoHarmless: For much of the comic, the Hackers seem less than a serious threat, due to how easily Jack and his family handle them. However, the true horror of what the Hackers could do to someone is not made fully apparent until they [[spoiler: change Franky into a monster and force him into attack Jack. That's right, the Hackers could turn anyone other than Jack into monsters and send them to attack him. Including his parents, his friends, ANYONE. Apparently the only reason they haven't is because Grin is the only person skilled enough (asides from Gavin) to do it properly, and [[EvenEvilHasStandards after Franky she refuses to do it again.]] However, it's possible that not only could Gavin do it properly, but effortlessly, if he so chose, since apparently he can perform extremely complex hacks with [[strike:a snap of his fingers]] numpad gloves.]]

* [[spoiler:AntiMagic]]: Pretty much the only reason he isn't dead.

* SmithWillSuffice: When Frankie gets teleported to the hacker base in a straightjacket.
-->'''Frankie:''' Oh god oh god oh god...\\
'''Gavin:''' Please stop calling me that.

* NonuniformUniforrm: WordOfGod confirms it's set in an Australian school that does have a uniform; most students either wear whatever they want over it or ignore it completely.

* VillainousBSOD: Brought to a whole new meaning [[http://fancyadventures.com/2012/02/13/page-367/ here]

* FreudWasRight: [invoked] "Take me to that phallus!"

* FreudWasRight: "Take me to that phallus!"

*** That spoiler doesn't really count. The massive stress is still better than alternative, and all it means is that Jack has to be a little bit more careful.

--> Jack stares at the T-Rex for a moment before yelling "Oh Gaaawd!" and jumping into its mouth.
