* SugarWiki/AwesomeArt: This comic introduced the world to Vivienne Medrano's highly distinct, absolutely gorgeous art style full of fluid lines, vibrant colors, and a CastOfSnowflakes. And she only got better with time. The “Bad Luck Jack” short doesn’t look too shabby either with its diverse array of colors and expressive animation.

* BigLippedAlligatorMoment: During the “Bad Luck Jack” short, the climax has the main characters pull a BigDamnHeroes moment to save Jack from being eaten by a monster as Spam sings about fighting said monster... but then, completely out of nowhere, he gets distracted by a bumblebee and starts singing about how much he likes bees instead. This goes on for a little bit before Spam remembers he’s supposed to be helping the others save Jack, so he goes back to his “monster fighting” song and his ode to bees is never brought up again.

* DesignatedHero: The denizens of Safe Haven can be seen like this. While it is not their fault that Cameron was [[spoiler:fraudulently]] sent there, they effectively kidnap her by not letting her leave. This is despite the FantasticRacism against humans (as revealed in supplementary materials) and her zoophobia. The In-Universe justification being that letting her leave will "corrupt" the barrier that wards off "dark forces". However, it is a plot point in chapter three [[spoiler: that the barrier doesn't work]] thus eliminating this excuse.

* UnintentionallyUnsympathetic: Chapter three wants you to feel bad for Damian. This can be hard since he abuses his cousin, [[spoiler: tries to sabotage Zill's relationship with Kayla, sneaks off to Safe Haven without his parents knowing [[TooDumbToLive thus putting his life at risk]]]] and threatens a man insulting him with violence.

** Leonardo of the twins could probably use a good cuddle as well, as he's much more nervous and awkward than his suave brother Vincent. His messed up eye and missing tooth probably makes him less appealing to girls and he likely lives in his twin's shadow. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RqFKTbjn4c0 Poor baby.]]

* FoeYayShipping: Quite a number of fans enjoy [[FanPreferredCouple shipping]] Tom and [[{{Bishonen}} Addison]], despite the two hating one another, and being in separate relationships. Though to be fair, this is partially backed up by the fact that they previously dated very briefly before breaking up on bad terms.

Authors Saving Throw no longer applies to reboots


* SlowPacedBeginning: One main complaint about the comic was how long it took to get to the main plot, as well as the fact that it never actually ''did''. Not helping matters was the fact that there was only one new page a week that very frequently didn't progress the story. Viv is well aware of this, and it's one of the reasons she scrapped the comic, and [[AuthorsSavingThrow promises the reboot will get to the main plot much faster]].

Moving Fan Nickname entries to YMMV per the TRS thread.

Added DiffLines:

* FanNickname:
** Zill, Kayla, Jack, Vanex and Spam have become known as "the Main Gang", or "the Original 5".
** Sometimes Addison (aka [[InSeriesNickname Addi]]) is also included in the former.
** Damian, Addison, Sahara, Tom, Gustav, and Mackenzie are generally seen as the "secondary Main" group (especially the first three).

if the work is still popular then it's not an example


* CondemnedByHistory: When the comic began, it was widely praised for its art, characters, and premise. However, as time went on, many people started to criticize these aspects. This is a more downplayed example, however, as the comic still has its supporters and maintains a fanbase.

* InterspeciesRomance: We can be certain that there'll be loads of this since the ZP World is so diverse in its population. For starters, the heavily implied and currently [[ShipTease blossoming ship possibility]] of Zech and Cameron.
** Kayla and Zill, a kangaroo and a...uhhh...[[BuffySpeak not-kangaroo.]]
** Although they're currently broken up, Addison and Tom. A HalfHumanHybrid and an Incubus. Riveting!
