14** When [[http://barxotka.com/comic/self-serving-self-sacrifice/ Camello volunteers to be abducted]] [[spoiler: when he sees a kidnapped woman trying to escape mechanical tentacle rape by the Zeta Reticulans.]]

19* Adventures In The Bible: Tsar's takes place in a scene described in [[http://barxotka.com/comic/revelation-4-nightmare-fuel/ Revelations 4]].
20* AllGirlsWantBadBoys: Camello seems to have throes of [[http://barxotka.com/comic/cursebreaker-is-that-a-gangster/ wannabe-groupies]] even though he is [[spoiler: too gay to be interested in women.]]
21* AnalProbing: Though the humans view it as sexual, the Zeta Reticulans [[http://barxotka.com/2012/10/28/what-the-heck-is-up-with-the-camello-gay-tentacle-rape-scene/ don't seem to have a clue]] [[spoiler: that this form of fuel collection might be perverted, or even seem to understand the mechanics of human sex.]]
22* AntiHero: Lucky doesn't seem to possess any sort of redeeming qualities. Camello is cruel, manipulative, arrogant, and abusive, but is marginally more likable.
23* [[spoiler: ArentYouGoingToRavishMe:]] Marlborina's reaction [[http://barxotka.com/comic/tampons-for-virgins-2/ after]] Camello sobers up [[spoiler: from a previous rape attack]] and sings her an apology song.
24* ArtEvolution:
25** The [[http://barxotka.thecomicseries.com/comics/1/ original twenty nine pages]] of Rasputin Barxotka were done in a completely different style and moved to a different site. These pages were [[http://barxotka.com/2011/08/28/project-beautify-barxotka/ redone]] to give the webcomic a more consistent look. Other pages were enhanced with shading or backgrounds.

30** When the Almighty is shown in her true form, she's a photograph rather than a drawing.
31** Thomas Overbeck, creator of Webcomic/TimesLikeThis, did an AprilFoolsDay gag guest comic that was written into the storyarc and turned into canon.
32** Supplemental comics drawn by guest artists are invariably done in a different style.
33* AttemptedRape:
34** Camello attempted to rape Marlborina while extremely drunk, [[http://barxotka.com/comic/rape-failure-2/ but successfully fought him off.]]

48* BreakingTheFourthWall:
49** [[http://barxotka.com/comic/beet-colored-redhead-and-bottle-blond/ Zoya]] did it when she teased the readers about Russian apartments.
50** The Almighty is able to travel freely [[http://barxotka.com/comic/uninspired-chaos-2/ inside and outside the fourth wall]], especially when other characters are dreaming, and at one point she was depicted as a photograph rather than a drawn character.
51** Tsar could be perceived as breaking it when he complains about Thomas Overbeck's AprilFoolsDay guest comic, even though technically [[http://barxotka.com/comic/dont-call-me-a-negro-white-boy/ Bob was responsible for it in the story]].
