* BaseBreakingCharacter: Gaz. To her fans, her original TV series persona was funny, tough, scary, and a badass force of nature everyone on the show thinks twice about crossing. Not to mention it's implied she's only like that because everyone around her (sans Membrane) is so stupid. However, her detractors viewed her as an overly selfish, cruel, and vindictive... something that Vasquez agreed with. The comics and ''Enter the Florpus'' have Gaz behaving [[AdaptationalNiceGuy much more amicably to her brother]], outright helping and supporting him in some cases... which, in turn, annoys the former group that misses her more belligerent persona.

** Likewise Tak, although we have had some appearances from [[BrainUploading her personality as downloaded into her ship's AI]].

* AlternativeCharacterInterpretation: Gaz's characterization in "Invader Zim: The Dookie Loop Horror". Has Gaz gone full circle with her back to abusing Dib? Or (since Dib had no memories of Zim killing him multiple times before becoming time-loop immune) did Gaz actually save Dib's life after multiple failures by implanting the chronal device into his skull, said device giving her vague memories of stuffing things into Dib's head and thinking it was natural?
** Another pertaining to Gaz here is that among the characters shown to be affected by the time loop she's no where to be seen, which is notable since she's a major character and even Membrane was shown. Just a simple writing decision and it can be assumed she's simply spending her loops playing video games, or did Gaz manage to find an escape for herself?

* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodPlot: A common criticism of the comics is that they ignore much of the MythArc set up by the proposed later episodes of the television series, with plot elements such as the Resisty and characters like Tak being completely absent.

* AuthorsSavingThrow: Jhonen Vasquez admitted that, as misanthropic as the show already was, Dib's abusive sister and neglectful father were ''too'' cruel to find funny, and when creating the comics, rewrote Gaz from a FlatCharacter to a more dynamic AnnoyingYoungerSibling (notably in Issue 14) and had Prof. Membrane interacting with his children a little more. This extended into ''WesternAnimation/InvaderZimEnterTheFlorpus'', which firmly shows that the Membranes love each other in spite of their dysfunction. All to make the cruelty funnier, of course.
