* BigNameFan: Captain Osaka is a good example of this. DOUBLE K is ''very'' famous in the Gurren Lagann fandom, having been discussed briefly in ''The Escapist'' magazine, inspired several cosplay groups, and generally having been enjoyed by more or less everyone in the English-speaking fandom (and even outside of it, since it's damn entertaining and funny in its own right, and one doesn't at all ''need'' to have watched the anime to like it). He's also had a single-volume manga published in the past, called ''Atomic King Daidogan'', which is itself heavily inspired by other super robot series.

So Cool Its Awesome is a fanspeak term that doesn't get wicks.

** Very much so, which is unfortunate given the [[SoCoolItsAwesome high quality of the comic]] -- readers have waited weeks, if not ''months'' for updates, and it took 3-and-three-quarter years for the comic to reach 100 pages. Cap has attempted to commit himself to a more regular schedule several times, but ultimately his day job (among other things) takes higher priority. However, the [=KickStarter=] project founded at the beginning of 2012 will go a long way towards finally establishing a more regular (and much faster) update schedule.

* TheMerch: The merch store funded by the Kickstarter project sells shot glasses, as well as other stuff such as Leeron's fabulously 80's pastel-blue unicorn shirt.

* AscendedFanon: "Someone in the comments for the last page suggested that Kamina keeps a wardrobe of embarrassing, Simon-sized costumes in the Gurrenrod's trunk at all times for [[DraggedIntoDrag these kinds of emergencies]]. I think I will just go ahead and make that canon right now."

** In order to produce the paperback versions of Volume 1, Cap is required to actually sell them at a ''loss'' so as to avoid copyright issues. He's also not actually an artist by trade (rather a musician), so he produces ''DOUBLE K'' in his spare time, and actively turns down freelance jobs to work on it. The ''only'' benefit he gets is the satisfaction that his fans are enjoying the comic, though he admits himself that this is more than enough for him to be happy with the comic's outcome.
** The print copies of''VOLUME 1'' were intentionally delayed by Cap for specifically this reason; the earlier pages are noticeably different in style, with the first 20 being done partially by hand. This apparently didn't look great in print samples, and as such, Cap took it upon himself to redraw these pages. T he samples of the new pages are [[http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/captainosaka/double-k-volume-1-and-beyond/posts/203802 noticeably of a far higher quality and mesh with the current style of the comic more comfortably.]]
