1* Kate Beaton managed to do a [[http://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2010/4/5/ guest strip]] for ''Webcomic/PennyArcade''. With much HoYay.
2** She also [[http://www.harkavagrant.com/index.php?id=81 brings babies back from the dead]].
3* [[http://www.harkavagrant.com/index.php?id=139 Laura Secord vs. Paul Revere]]: [[UltimateShowdownOfUltimateDestiny Fight of the Century!]]
4* [[http://www.harkavagrant.com/index.php?id=300 And the wingspan of an ALBATROSS!]][[note]] AND THE LEFT HOOK OF A HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMP![[/note]]
5* [[http://www.harkavagrant.com/index.php?id=144 Chiune Sugihara]]: Badass.
6* [[http://www.harkavagrant.com/index.php?id=374 Katherine Sui Fun Cheung]]. Who is Top Gun? '''She is.'''
7* [[http://www.harkavagrant.com/index.php?id=356 The Ida B. Wells comic]]. The entire thing. Even more so when you find out that this is only a fraction of the awesome things this badass lady [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ida_B._Wells did in her life.]]
8** Probably best summed up in this strip:
9-->'''Ida's husband''': I can't believe our friends have been murdered. [[TearJerker I can't believe we need three coffins.]]
10-->'''Ida''': I'm going to write about it.
11-->'''Ida's husband''': I can't believe we need four coffins?
12-->'''Ida''': ''[[LetsGetDangerous Find a pen.]]''
13** And of course, the first one:
14-->'''Conductor''': Ma'am, you'll have to leave the white car.
15-->'''Ida''': It's a lady's car and I'm a lady.
16-->'''Conductor''': (struggling to physically force Ida off the train) Ma'am get off!
17-->'''Ida''': ''[[NoYou You get off!]]''
18-->'''Passenger''': [[HilariousInHindsight Well I don't know what anyone thinks they're going to prove by making a fuss about giving up seats on public transit.]]
19-->'''Conductor''': She bit me!
20* [[http://www.harkavagrant.com/index.php?id=60 Stompin' Tom Connors vs the Music Industry]]. When told that his legendary country music isn't enough, and to make it more "American" (he's Canadian), he's got this to say:
21--> '''Stompin' Tom Connors''': Maybe I don't want to [make music for you]! Yeah, I got ''six national awards'' right here, you can have 'em back! Everyone in this country knows my name and my songs and you want to tell me that's not enough? '''Go to hell!'''
22--> '''Text Box''': What are you gonna do then, Stompin' Tom?
23--> '''Stompin' Tom Connors''': Guess I'll put the country under my feet again. Least I'll stand for something when I'm on it.
24* The [[http://www.harkavagrant.com/index.php?id=396 first strip]] of her comic about Karl Henrich Ulrichs, about to address an assembly on striking down anti-[=LGBT=] laws... in ''1867.''
25--> '''Ulrich:''' [thinking] ''There is still time not to do this. You can still just not do this and be silent. Then the palpitations of your heart would cease.''\
26'''Ulrich:''' [out loud] Gentlemen.
27* Kate [[http://www.harkavagrant.com/index.php?id=81 decides to stop using so much]] SelfDeprecation. The result is truly awesome.
28-->[''The title of the comic is KATE BEATON STOP BEING SO HARD ON YOURSELF'']
29-->'''Kate''': What? Oh...OK. Everything I do is magnificent. [''to passing young man''] '''Gaze''' upon this comic that I made. [''He breaks down crying''] That's '''right'''. [''looks off, sees crying woman holding baby''] What's wrong?
30-->'''Crying Woman''': My baby! My baby has died.
31-->'''Kate''': [''takes the baby and cradles it in her arms for a moment, looking sad. In the next frame she hands the now laughing baby to the amazed woman ''] Did it?
32-->[''End title: SEE WHAT YOU HAVE DONE'']
