History Webcomic / Girly

What many people probably don't know is that ''Girly'' is actually a sequel to his previous comic ''Cute-Wendy'' which in turn was an alternate take on Lesnick's original webcomic and personal OldShame, ''Webcomic/{{Wendy}}'', which can be found [[http://joshlesnick.com/wendy/?comic=51 here]].

* DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything: [[http://girlyyy.com/go/180 Does it ever!]]
** There's no way [[http://girlyyy.com/go/499 the last panel here]] was an accident.

* BilingualBonus: The nurse's assistant is speaking perfectly good french... [[CanadianAccents Quebec french, that is]].

* CanadianAccents: The nurse's assistant speaks with a Quebec French accent during the last part of the story.

* SexyDiscretionShot: Whenever two characters have sex, they are drawn [[http://girlyyy.com/go/121 frolicking through a meadow with adorable forest creatures]], in {{Kawaisa}} form.

* TakeThat: Collete's father was drawn entirely with cut-paste, both in ''Girly'' and its precursor, ''Cute-Wendy''. Her mother was drawn normally, and so she wound up being ''half'' cut-paste. Having her like video games falls right in line with the many other times he has criticized the [[CutAndPasteComic artwork]] of many GamingWebcomics.

* CatsAreMean: Or at least pretty [[BadAss hardcore]].

*** [[spoiler:But seeing as they appear in strip [[http://girlyyy.com/go/759 759]] and strip [[http://girlyyy.com/go/764 764]]. it's safe to assume that they're alive and well]]

* HistoricalVillainUpgrade: Many of the characters watch an action-drama show called ''Action Up the Butt'', featuring Victorian authors shooting each other with semi-automatics to gain each other's literary powers. MarkTwain and OscarWilde are treated as villains, while Sir Creator/WalterScott gets a HistoricalHeroUpgrade. However, it [[http://girlyyy.com/go/631 did not last]].

After [[http://girlyyy.com/go/764 764 strips]], the comic reached its GrandFinale, but Josh is currently making a spinoff (set inbetween various [[TimeSkip Time Skips]] within the comic) called ''[[http://superhappy.tumblr.com/tagged/down+together Down Together]]''. Josh Lesnick's main project for a little while was ''Doctor Voluptua'' (too NSFW to link), and he's also a contributing artist and founder of ''Slipshine'', a paysite, but now he's dedicating all of his time to working on ''[[http://prinpan.tumblr.com/ Princess Panic]]'', a 2-D video games project with PaperMario-styled gameplay in the (very) early planning stages. Lesnick also has a new webcomic called ''Webcomic/YouSuck'' which can be found [[http://yousuckthecomic.com/ here]].

* ModernMinstrelsy: In a ShoutOut to a common [[DiscreditedTrope discredited]] [[TheGoldenAgeOfAnimation Golden Age]] sight gag, a white guy gets accidentally covered in black paint and exclaims, "Oh, Lawdy!" The UnfortunateImplications are mitigated by the black guy standing next to him immediately being covered in white paint, and by the fact that the chapter in question contains many Golden Age tropes and sight gags throughout. Also see RefugeInAudacity.

* Animesque: The first hundred strips are done in this style, before undergoing Art Evolution (see below). Despite this, the plot still uses various tropes from animé at various points.

** Josh Lesnick made a conscious decision at one point to stop imitating manga artists and remove many of the Japanese elements in his art. His style is much more influenced by western-cartoons now.

* DenserAndWackier: Inverted -- ''Girly'' is less dense than ''Cute-Wendy'' was, and while it is still wacky, it's more coherently so. (Also, CerebusSyndrome eventually sets in . . .)

* DeusSexMachina: [[spoiler:The ultimate ThePowerOfLove attack used on the BigBad.]]

* NoManOfWomanBorn: Not actually a prophecy, just a phrase: [[spoiler:During Otra's FaceHeelTurn, she says to Winter, "I don't want to be your sidekick anymore". How did Winter get her back? [[CrowningMomentOfHeartwarming Saying she'll be Otra's sidekick from now on if that's what it takes.]]]]

* InTheNameOfTheMoon: Parodied with a massive ShoutOut to GGundam [[http://girlyyy.com/go/494 here]].

** And the latest strip has given us an example on par with the [[GGundam Sekiha Love Love Tenkyouken]]. [[http://girlyyy.com/go/763 Seriously.]]

* CallingYourAttacks: Including a ShoutOut to the [[GGundam king of the trope]]. And with...

* PoliceAreUseless: Subverted heavily. Girly's police regularly show up the resident superhero and occasionally even the protagonists. Just two of [=CuteTown's=] police are able to best an entire squad of [[SuperSoldier genetically modified super police]] without taking any [[ClothingDamage real damage]].

* BiggerBad" [[spoiler: Colette's dad, the former president of HappyCo. He created of the Sidekick Queen and is responsible for Winter's parents' disappearance.]]

And now, [[http://girlyyy.com/go/764 764 strips later]], the comic has reached its GrandFinale. Josh Lesnick's main project for a little while was ''Doctor Voluptua'' (too NSFW to link), and he's also a contributing artist and founder of ''Slipshine'', a paysite, but now he's dedicating all of his time to working on ''[[http://prinpan.tumblr.com/ Princess Panic]]'', a 2-D video games project with PaperMario-styled gameplay in the (very) early planning stages. Lesnick also has a new webcomic called ''Webcomic/YouSuck'' which can be found [[http://yousuckthecomic.com/ here]].

* TimeSkip: The story sometimes jumps ahead a few months between chapters.

* TomboyAndGirlyGirl, though the "Girly" moniker was first slapped on Otra, the tomboy.

** Strip 663: the way the kitties unite and attack the enemy is an obvious shout out of {{Disgaea}}.
