Heroes Inc.
is a Massive Multiplayer Crossover Sprite Comic written by Robert L. Lynch.
The princess has been captured (again), so Mario and Luigi put together a crack team made up of Kirby, Chrono, Donkey Kong, Link, Samus, and Mega Man to save her. Little do they know that Princess Peach was kidnapped for a ritual to bring back someone very sinister...
Not to be confused with the Scott Austin Webcomic of the same name.
Robert Lynch's Heroes Inc. contains examples of:
- Brainwashed and Crazy: Poo.
- The Chew Toy: Luigi, of course.
- Deconstructed when he leaves the team after he gets beaten once too many.
- Face Palm: Samus tends to do this with her Arm Cannon.
- Jive Turkey: Mega Man in this comic.
- Luke, I Am Your Father: Thanks to time travel, Link turns out to be Chrono's biological father.
- Mythology Gag: Several.
- Mario's full name is Mario Mario
- Robot Me: Robo-Peach is a very close replica of Princess Peach, complete with sharing memories. She starts as a spy but gets reprogrammed to be an ally.
- Shout-Out
- Kirby meets Forrest Gump.
- "We always get rush hour traffic going through The '80s."
- One gag comic setting up Victor as the antagonist is a recreation of the opening of Zero Wing.
- A second gag comic parodies several films, including Revenge of the Sith, King Kong, and Die Hard.
- Kirby
- Skewed Priorities: Low Phone Bill vs Freedom "I think Mario can find me on his own."
- Stable Time Loop: The events of the time travel arc; the heroes go back in time to find out who stole parts of the Hades Gate, only to turn out they were the thieves all along. Link fathering Chrono might count.
