8!!Tropes:
9* TheAllegedCar: [[http://www.radiocomix.com/havoc-inc/2011/09/12/havoc-inc-02-pg-20/ Regulo's ship]], he leased it for cheap with no "frills" added (like new wiring, a radio, weapons...).
10* CargoCult: Once some indigenous otters mistake them for gods. [[spoiler: It's just a scam, though.]]
11%%* CasualInterstellarTravel
12* ChildProdigy: Lambie turns out to be something of a prodigy in regards to economics, much to her dads' dismay when she finds their ledgers.
13* DamselInDistress: That girl Ches and Deck accidentally rescued from the raiders in the first book.
14* FeudalFuture: Ches and Deck have rescued the occasional princess, and they were "knights" in some past war. But the "Dread Koroboromitsu clan" who are the antagonists of "Relatively Speaking" are more like ineffectual {{Right Wing Militia Fanatic}}s.
15* GiantSpider: Encountered in the jungle in issue #5, and featured on the [[http://www.radiocomix.com/havoc-inc/2012/03/07/havoc-inc-05-cover/ cover.]]
16* HorseOfADifferentColor: They look like horses, but have fangs and three-toed feet.
17* InterspeciesAdoption: Ches and Deck have an adopted daughter, a mouse named "Lambie," though she's at boarding school in most issues.
18* InterspeciesRomance: Ches and Deck, a canine and a ringtailed cat.
19* LethalChef: Deck's [[http://www.radiocomix.com/havoc-inc/comic/issue-9-pg-04/ meatloaf]] is a little heavy on the habanero. And he suggests smothering it in ice cream after Ches tastes it.
20* LeotardOfPower: In a RareMaleExample, Ches sometimes goes out in an orange leotard with a plunging neckline.
21* MistakenForSpecialGuest: By a band of raiders from whose leader Chester swiped a distinctive gemstone.
22* MyHovercraftIsFullOfEels: the first issue has Ches and Deck attempting to buy horses using a poorly written phrasebook.
23-->'''[[http://www.radiocomix.com/havoc-inc/2011/05/09/havoc-inc-01-pg-03/ Ches]]''': ''"I have a frog and much money, I only pray you will take me for all I am worth."''
24* NonFatalExplosions: A bomb fails to take a spoiled princess down a peg [[http://www.radiocomix.com/havoc-inc/comic/havoc-inc-07-pg-24/ here.]]
25* ObstructiveBureaucrat: Councilor Taran; of course, she also has a bit of a grudge against Chester.
26* PapaWolf: [[http://www.radiocomix.com/havoc-inc/comic/havoc-inc-07-pg-18/ Deck.]]
27* PerpetualPoverty: Due largely to Chester's [[http://www.radiocomix.com/havoc-inc/2011/07/18/havoc-inc-02-pg-01/ spending habits.]]
28* PoweredArmor: Worn by certain law enforcement or military groups, usually bulky enough to be mistaken for robots.
29* PsychoExGirlfriend: Knife, and her last three fiancees before Chris are all dead.
30* SapientShip: Ches and Deck's ship has a seemingly sapient computer, though it keeps trying to flirt with their coffee maker.
31* SpacePirates: They are recruited by a rather incompetent pirate captain in the second issue. Knife and her gang are another matter.
32* SpeculativeFictionLGBT: As eccentric as Ches and Deck are in universe, their being two mated males is never commented on as unusual.
33* {{Teleportation}}: The teleportation device is possibly the only thing on "Captain" Regulo's ship that works.
34* WeCanRebuildHim: Knife, after the one time Deck shot straight.
35* WorldOfFunnyAnimals: The cast of characters consists of various alien species resembling animals from Earth.
