* BetterThanCanon: A few of the reviewers on Fanfiction.net have claimed this.

* HilariousInHindsight: Jared despises Creator/JohnKricfalusi and filled the series with TakeThats against Kricfalusi and his work, calling him an overrated hack. This view has become widespread due to Kricfalusi's later works being increasing levels of disaster, culminating in the CreatorKiller ''WesternAnimation/CansWithoutLabels''.

Foe Yay has been cut


* FoeYay: Psyko's attitude towards Sleepwalker is suffused with this trope, as is Psyko's attitude towards just about anyone else he interacts with. It caused no small amount of FridgeHorror on the author's part when he re-read some of his old issues.

* BigLippedAlligatorMoment: A few of these occur every now and again, usually involving CloudCuckooLander Kenny. One such instance is an interlude describing the first issue of his webcomic, which is basically an AuthorFilibuster viciously condemning Creator/MattGroening for not having the balls to cancel ''TheSimpsons'' before it started to suck, while ridiculing the notion that ''WesternAnimation/FamilyGuy'' rips off ''WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons''. The strip ends with Groening having a VillainousBreakdown and admitting that he sold his creative soul for money, while admitting that ''WesternAnimation/FamilyGuy'' is still funny.

Doing some SelfDemonstrating.The Joker cleanup before the comics project launches.


* CharacterRerailment: When 8-Ball was introduced in the mainstream continuity he was a laidback MagnificentBastard with a wry sense of humor, essentially being a more moral version of SelfDemonstrating/TheJoker. However he ended up being relegated to CListFodder, suffered massive BadassDecay, and was widely forgotten. Here he's reset into his original characterization and fighting skill.

* TearJerker: Rick's parents dying in a crossfire.
** [[spoiler: Cyrus' PsychicAssistedSuicide. The kicker? It happened on Rick's birthday, only because Cobweb wanted to fuck with Sleepwalker.]]
** Sleepy's persistent homesickness, since he knows he cannot return to the Mindscape as long as he's bound to Rick's mind. And the more long he's away, the more he breaks his species' rules, the more he feels ''unworthy'' to come back home.
** Moonstone's rampage on the ''Daily Bugle'' building leaving Rick in a month-long coma and crippled.
** [[spoiler: Sleepy's final HeroicSacrifice, and the anguished realisation amongst Rick and friends that no, Sleepy won't come back this time.]]
*** [[spoiler: Peter Parker's feeling that something's wrong, and his EurekaMoment when Gwen talks about her dad's ability to tell another cop died on the job: he doesn't know who, but a fellow superhero, someone fighting the good fight besides Spiderman is ''gone''.]]

* FetishFuel: Lullaby is a Britney/Lindsay/Paris Hilton analogue with mind control powers, mixing blonde pop diva with psychic domination and a bad attitude. RuleThirtyFour, get on this stat!
