Webcomic: The Jupiter Palladium

Superhero webcomic by a team of four writers. While it is set in its own universe, the characters were adapted from a Teen Titans fan RP done by the creators at a younger age.

Can be found here

. It updates Mondays and Thursdays.

Provides examples of:

All There in the Manual: The Universe Page.
Audience Participation: Fancharacters appear within the comic from time to time.
Big Bad: Damien Voss, at least apparently.
Big Ol' Eyebrows: Dwayne. And Matt. If you want anywhere near this team, you need the brows for it.
Blade on a Stick: Jo's naginata.
Differently Powered Individual: In England, superhumans were apparently called "heroes" because it sounded nicer. This is obviously not a catch-all term.
Elemental Powers: People with these are called "Elementals".
- Playing with Fire: Flint.
- Shock and Awe: Spark.
- Dishing Out Dirt: Silicis.
Five-Man Band: The main cast is a team of six that probably fills a variation on this structure, but have not really fallen into their roles yet so this is largely speculative.
- The Hero: Angel.
- The Lancer: Probably Jo.
- The Big Guy: Jo, Spark, and Flint are all very good candidates for this.
- The Smart Guy: Syren, presumably.
- The Chick: Syren and Spark are good candidates for this.
Genki Girl: Spark.
Guile Hero: Angel has this as a superpower, although apparently not her only one.
Just Friends: Spark and Flint. Or at least Syren thinks so
Let's Split Up, Gang: Used a couple of times so far, lampshaded here
Missing Mom: Syren's reason for coming to Port Jupiter.
Most Common Superpower: Angel, Angel, Angel. The Creators love it, especially in side-stories
Names to Run Away From Really Fast: Damien Voss, the apparent Big Bad.
No Pronunciation Guide: Oh, that's how you say it.
Perpetual Frowner: Jo.
Pre Ass Kicking One Liner: Spark to some Mooks here.
Psychic Powers: People who have these are called Mentals; Syren and Angel go in this category.
- The Empath: Syren mentions she is better at this than her usual telepathy.
- Telepathy: Syren.
Putting the Band Back Together: The original RP players did this to create the comic.
Shipper on Deck: Oh, Syren. That face.
The Strategist: Angel.
What Do You Mean, It's Not Awesome?: Jo's reaction to Angel's power being superhuman intelligence.
Jo: Please tell me that's not your only power.
Angel: It's not.
