Scout Crossing is a weekly webcomic from the artist of
Nerf This chronicling the adventures of the eponymous hero and his battle against evil scenesters. Find it
here
(first comic
here
).
This comic provides examples of:
- Anti-Hero: Scout. Although he used to be somewhat of a local legend, he is now a bit of a pathetic layabout.
- Art Evolution: Every strip is a little better, it seems.
- Battle Couple: In the 12 page mini comic, Scout and Penny are shown to have been this before Scout's Heroic BSOD.
- Berserk Button: Boyd Pizzly almost killed Penny, and Scout attacked him
- Blond Guys Are Evil: So far both villians, Laylor Tinsey and Boyd Pizzly are blond, while scout has dark hair. Of course, being Scene kids, their hair might not be natural.
- British Accents: The "New Readers" page explains that Lizzy Bell is British. Nothing more, just British.
- Evil Gloating: Taylor and Boyd are ridiculously guilty of this.
- Faux Affably Evil: Boyd Pizzly
- Flash Back: Happens to Scout when he gets into a fight with Finn, and details how his brother, Chance was killed, and why Finn is blind. It also reveals quite a lot of the story elements, such as what exactly the 'sleeve' tattoos are.
- Handicapped Badass: Finn Callaghan
- Heroic BSOD: It is implied that Scout had one of these after his older brothers death.
- Names to Run Away From Really Fast: Penny Smashworthy
- Say It with Hearts: Sparticus.
- Sissy Villain: The vaguely effeminate, physically pathetic, always fashionable Laylor Tinsey.
- And the covers playing, sunglasses wearing Boyd Pizzly hasn't been that intimidating either
- Sunglasses at Night: Boyd Pizzly
- The Fighting Narcissist: Laylor Tinsey has strong shades of this.
- You Gotta Have Blue Hair: Penny Smashworthy
