History Webcomic / DudimInTheFamily

The comic finished in 2021 after the group mutually agreed that they ran out of stories and ideas and wanted to end on a high note. While still largely an obscure relic among many, *many* indie web comics, it has a unique bend to its humor - it probably helps that the entire thing can probably be read in an afternoon if one took the notion to.

* And finally, the '''Tim Rogers''' Arc (Part 8, 2020), which sees the first in-person appearance of longtime [[TheGhost unseen]] villain Tim Rogers as he aims to rule Pasta Land with an iron fist.

''[[https://www.dropbox.com/sh/qpj5p5wqtr1efus/AAA-3De8f_Mi6qOdCbvuPRova?dl=0 Dudim in the Family]]'' is web comic started in 2016. Originally envisioned as a quasi-spinoff of the equally little-known fangame ''[[VideoGame/SuperCharismaBros Super Charisma Bros.]]'', ''Dudim in the Family'' centers around a decently [[Main/{{Understatement}} sized]] ensemble cast of various strange characters that largely originated from said fangame but are as equally as likely to just be completely made-up on the spot (special mention goes to "Goggles Yoshi", a recurring character derived from a one-panel joke early in the comic's run).

* ADateWithRosiePalms: Friendly Dictator, obsessively, toward the beginning of the comic. There's a whole arc about him going to a clinic for it (which, interestingly enough, turned into a ChristmasEpisode towards the end).

* AluminumChristmasTrees: In a comic with all too many absurdities injected very deliberately, a "masturbation clinic" seems like just another made-up concept that's far too ridiculous to be true. [[https://www.thecut.com/2012/11/i-went-to-a-female-masturbation-class.html They're very real.]]

* BalefulPolymorph: Dudim has (willfully, mind you) turned into a multitude of objects over the comic's run. While it does technically render him immobile, he doesn't seem to mind very much.

* AdaptationPersonalityChange: The original Charisma fangames depict Dudim as having a sort of DeadpanSnarker streak (though external material such as [=MFGG=] and [[Wiki/TVTropes This Very Wiki]] insisted he was a bit of a nut), while the Dudim we see in these comics is... [[{{Cloudcuckoolander}} more outwardly strange]], comparatively.

* AbsenteeActor: The Burger King Crown arc (where Dustin goes mad with power) had a noteworthy lack of Miles or Friendly.

Imagine every MS Paint comic you've ever seen. Think about the varying quality and effort put into each different comic. Now imagine all of that variation and insanity in '''one''' comic, and you might be picturing something vaguely similar to '''''[[https://www.dropbox.com/sh/qpj5p5wqtr1efus/AAA-3De8f_Mi6qOdCbvuPRova?dl=0 Dudim in the Family]]''''', a web comic started in 2016 and, for one reason or another, is still somehow chugging along in obscurity. Originally envisioned as a quasi-spinoff of the equally little-known fangame ''[[VideoGame/SuperCharismaBros Super Charisma Bros.]]'', ''Dudim in the Family'' centers around a [[LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters decently]] [[Main/{{Understatement}} sized]] ensemble cast of various strange characters that largely originated from said fangame but are as equally as likely to just be completely made-up on the spot (special mention goes to "Goggles Yoshi", a recurring character derived from a one-panel joke early in the comic's run).

* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: The Burger King Crown is hinted at coming back at the end of its arc, but as of this writing has failed to show up in any capacity.

* {{Adorkable}}: Certain characters such as Dustin or Cruise can come across like this in their straight man roles. Dustin especially (when he's not depicted as a wall of flesh, anyway) has a tendency to be the most grounded and socially awkward of the main cast.

* The '''Presidential Election''' Arc (Part 2, 2016): An election in Pastaland that was [[RealitySubtext loosely inspired by a similar election taking place in America at the time]] is capturing everyone's interest.

** In a very self-aware way, the comic has deconstructed DependingOnTheArtist ''hard'' - an entire arc implied that the various art styles and inconsistencies were straight up alternate universes and the ramifications of [[MeetYourEarlyInstallmentWeirdness having to deal with your own past]] as an allegory for coming to terms with your past.

* Deconstruction:

!!This comic invokes the following tropes:

* LazilyGenderFlippedName: WordOfGod [[invoked]] says the name for the female Dudim that appeared in the alternate universe conundrum during the end of the Time Travel arc was amusingly named "Dudette".
