** Captain Sternn's lawyer is a [[WesternAnimation/SmilingFriends large-nosed man named Charlie.]]
** Taarna is a very attractive ActionGirl who wields a mystical weapon, wears a loincloth, is the last of her kind and gets captured by green-skinned barbarians. Much like [[VideoGame/StarFoxAdventures a certain vixen]] twenty-one years later...

True Art Is Incomprehensible is now an in-universe trope as per TRS.


* TrueArtIsIncomprehensible: Many of the stories, especially in the magazine's early years, often went on surreal tangents that often seemed to make no sense.
