18* Tropers/KingCrInuYasha: The December 2010 comics of ''WebComic/SabrinaOnline''. After being trolled on the internet, Zig Zag goes to various towns getting revenge, one of them having her beat up a troll to a bloody pulp, all the while acting like an arrogant Inquisitor declaring war on trolls - and by trolls, read [[TheWarOnStraw Strawmen]] Depending on where Schwartz takes this, Zig might soon be joining the ranks of [[WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons Homer Simpson]] and [[WesternAnimation/FamilyGuy Peter Griffin]] in characters going from JerkWithAHeartOfGold to [[JerkAss just a jerk]], period.
19** Tropers/TheElectricPiper: Of course, prior to physically assaulting that troll, she warmed up by [[http://sabrina-online.com/strips/SabOnline564.GIF coming onto then turning down some fat nerd]] who'd [[StrawmanHasAPoint called her a slut]], then [[http://www.sabrina-online.com/strips/SabOnline565.GIF screwing a kid's mother just so she could rub it in the kid's face]]. Worse yet, it's implied that all this dickery was [[http://sabrina-online.com/strips/SabOnXmas10.JPG just the beginning]].
20*** ''Tropers/KingCrInuYasha'': To add insult to injury, the latter was based off a ''WebComic/MenageA3'' entry that some have considered to be a MoralEventHorizon for Zii (see the main webcomics page). This wouldn't have been a problem, but Schwartz's comic has Zig replay that same moment completely straight - albeit with minor changes; the mother had already been divorced for quite some time, though that still doesn't help - with no sense of irony or satire whatsoever.
21* @/{{Jonn}}: Let's not forget--she beats up a guy who's saying that free speech on the Internet should be free of consequences. While this isn't true, Zig is the owner of a porn company. Plenty of people think that's a lot worse than someone being a dick online. By her own moral relativism, they should get to beat her up. As for the consequences part, he knows who she is, where she works, and can press assault charges. Also, Zig Zag wasn't even created by Schwartz. Then again, this is the same comic that has a professional graphic designer, in the 2000s, [[AuthorAppeal using an Amiga]].
22* Tropers/CrazyLuigi: Personally, I felt that this comic was going in an odd turn of events when Sabrina told R.C. that she was actually going to have sex even if Amy and Thomas' son Timothy was going to watch. [[CharacterDerailment I thought that it was odd for her to risk traumatizing a baby/toddler of all things when she definitely tried to keep her and R.C.'s sex life in private without going to such extremes.]] Of course, she ends up saying she'd never really do that, but it still left a bad taste in my mouth. Although TheCameo of [[Film/TheViewAskewniverse Jay and Silent Bob]] honestly didn't make sense in a furry comic either.
23** @/{{Jonn}}: That comic didn't actually have a punch line, so it just crammed in a reference as a substitute. "Look, I'm making a [[Film/JayAndSilentBobStrikeBack JASBSB]] tribute! I will now lampshade it by actually putting JASB in my comic! Ha ha!"
24* Tropers/{{Samadhir}}: While the whole episode is partly a ShoutOut to ''Film/JayAndSilentBobStrikeBack'', there is a key difference with it. Jay and Silent Bob are portrayed as [[ButtMonkey broke, idiotic losers]] and their getting to beat up all the people who trolled them on the internet at the end was basically their [[ThrowTheDogABone karmic reward.]] Zig Zag, by contrast, is [[RichBitch enormously wealthy]], incredibly sexy and good-looking, loves her job, is a world-famous celebrity with legions of fans, and gets to have [[ReallyGetsAround all the sex she could ever want.]] Allowing her to beat up every person who says something bad about her on the internet (which, being a widely known pornstar, she should expect) on top of that just makes her seem [[SpoiledBrat spoiled beyond belief]] and almost elevates her to JerkSue status.
25* Tropers/McGillicutty: It was bad when Eric had Zig [[CharacterDerailment get so riled up about harsh words on the Internet]] that she was willing to stalk, harass, and physically assault people, but the actual [[DarthWiki/DethroningMomentOfSuck DMoS]] comes at the end of that arc- when [[KarmaHoudini she actually gets away with it without so much as a slap on the wrist.]]
26* Tropers/{{Nire}}: After a lot of growth and maturation on Zig Zag's part through her court-appointed therapy sessions, which she decided to continue with even after the mandatory sessions are up, she renders it all moot by abruptly having sex with her counselor. A lot of legitimate CharacterDevelopment was torn asunder by what felt like StatusQuoIsGod run amok. And the therapist allows it, to boot - in his favor, he does resign as her therapist immediately after the fact, but frankly that only barely makes it better. The moment essentially showed that, no matter how hard she tries or how much she realizes it may be a bad idea, Zig Zag simply cannot refrain from sex so long as the partner is even marginally willing. This was the point that I stopped reading the comic.
