Sir Swears A Lot / Webcomics

Go To

  • In one Achewood strip, Ray calls the police to complain about a neighbor selling car parts on his front lawn; one particularly obnoxious customer wandered over to Ray's to see if he would sell him something. Asked to describe this harassing individual, Ray says that the guy "said 'faggot' the way old telegrams said STOP."
  • In Adventurers!, Eternion demonstrates that, as an extradimensional being, he isn't bound by the world's rules against cuss words.
  • Benjamin Franklin's clone in The Adventures of Dr. McNinja consistently swears and also gives the finger. The comic, of course, censors this with black boxes that read things like "Potty mouth!" and "Family friendly comic!"
  • Ansem Retort: Andrew Jackson, motherfucker! Duke (the writer) received complaints about Andrew Jackson's language and responded by deliberately giving Jackson some pointless profanity in the next strip, including the only uses of the N-word and Country Matters in the entire comic.
  • In Autumn Bay, most of Ghoul's lines have at least one f-bomb.
  • In Beware the Villainess! the main character Melissa Foddebrat is quite foul-mouthed for a noble lady, due to actually having the mind of a college student from modern-day Korea.
  • Black Adventures: Jesus the Whimsicott, dumbasses!
  • Boneheads: Normally everyone has pretty clean language, but then Manolo Sanchez decided to make The Swear Jar. When Manny asks what happens to the money when the jar is full, Manolo admits he didn't think of that and decides they can do whatever they want with it. All of the other boneheads decide to turn into sailors and quickly fill up the jar.
    Manolo: THIS IS NOT AN EXCUSE FOR YOU ALL TO SWEAR MORE!!
  • Alex Williams, the titular Captain SNES: The Game Masta. The author of the comic was once asked why he swears so much, and replied thusly:
    "Some people just have a potty mouth. Alex is one of those people."
  • Castoff has Arianna Marcel, the grumpy, perpetually angry punch mage. An enterprising fan has counted that in the first eleven chapters Sonja, Terran and Frankie swore (mildly) once each, Zera four times, and Rori twelve, while Arianna uttered 186 swears, with 61 instances of "shit" alone. Remember that Sonja, Terran and Zera are soldiers, while Rori is a teenage thief.
  • Coyote from Drugs And Kisses not only swears the most but is the only character in the comic to drop the occasional C-Bomb.
  • Bob the Crab from The Dugs--Baseball Comics tends to be the only cussing character in The Las Vegas Tsunami. His speech is usually bleeped out by black boxes with alternative wording.
  • In El Goonish Shive, Catalina tends to call people jackasses a lot. It is pretty much a Catchphrase Insult at this point.
  • X-Pletive from Essaybee Comics Presents Fusion gets his power from cursing. It's always blacked out (being an all-ages comic), but you can tell he has a very colorful vocabulary.
  • Sydney Scoville Jr from Grrl Power. She goes for quality and quantity, especially when angered. A nearby TV crew begged via on-screen crawl for her to stop swearing, and she asked for a $10,000 advance on her salary to FILL a swear jar (granted, after being stranded on an alien planet with world-killing Kaiju for two days).
  • Frigg from Guilded Age. Consider a sample inspirational speech.
  • Homestuck:
    • Karkat Vantas. Eridan Ampora as well, to a lesser extent. Eridan seems to use harsh language as a Verbal Tic resulting from his generally poor linguistic skills, but Karkat's just always crabby. After the comic's conclusion, someone made a chart of how many times each character says the word "fuck," and unsurprisingly, Karkat placed first.
    • Dave Strider as well. Amusingly, both Dave and Karkat are Knights in Sburb, taking this trope name quite literally.
    • The biggest swearer in the series, though, is Gamzee, who seems to begin, end, punctuate, and sometimes even make up different forms of curse words in his speech. Before he goes insane it doesn't even seem like he's angry so much as it's a Verbal Tic.
  • Rachael from Las Lindas has quite the salty mouth on her. The main character, Mora Linda, isn't too far behind, either.
  • Bumblebee from Legands Of Prime practically personifies this trope.
  • Adrestia from morphE frequently drops S-Bombs and though far less often, Billy has his finger on the F-Bomb button.
  • Kenta Maeda from My Impossible Soulmate has quite the potty mouth.
  • Shara from No Heroes swears quite a lot, especially compared to the other protagonist, Katharina, who starts out never saying anything worse than "crap". A good example of their interaction can be found on this page.
    • Much, much later in the story, Katharina is finally driven to the point of dropping her first f-bomb.
  • Those sweet fukken dwarves in Oglaf!
  • On-camera, Tabitha from Pulse is mostly just a Deadpan Snarker, but it's implied that out of frame, she is extremely foulmouthed.
  • Rusty and Co.: Anti-Madeline, if the amount of her dialogue that's censored is any indication. The verbal bombs she drops are all covered by censor boxes; she has at least one box for every page she shows up in. Plus the occasional Grawlixes. It's fitting as she is the Evil Counterpart of Madeline Goodlaw, a Paladin who's polite to a fault.
  • Freija in The Senkari swears like a soldier, maybe because she is one.
  • Pictured in the trope's main page is a character from Sexy Losers with no official name. Over time, his dialogue got to the point where it included more swears than other words. One strip implies it may be caused by Hollywood Tourette's, as it causes him to drive a woman away when she realizes it's not just something he does during sex.
  • Nick Zerhakker from Skin Horse, but he has a profanity filter which changes them to family-friendly words.
  • Heartful Punch of Sleepless Domain noticeably swears more than any other character in the series. Her first meeting with Undine has her trying not to laugh because Undine accidentally says "shits", she's prone to casually using mild swears like crap, and when writing a note to Undine the word "bullshit" is conspicuously crossed out in favor of "not fair."
  • Slightly Damned gives us the violent, volatile fire demon known as Azurai, who literally cannot finish a sentence without saying "fuck", "shit", or their variations. Seriously, he would give Jan Valentine a run for his money in the swear department. There's also Rhea Snaketail and Lazuli, but they're nowhere near as bad off as Azurai.
  • A slight twist in Surprising Octeal where main character Suzanne never swears in public but swears like a sailor in her own thoughts.
  • Cliff in Wilde Life. Behold his Establishing Character Moment.
