History Webcomic / Jix

Jix is a sci-fi webcomic by Micah [=McNully=] about a blue-furred alien princess with multiple personalities named Jix (and Remula, and Lamerix, and "The Ambis") who lives with a human family consisting of Lauren Akana, her husband Paul, and daughter Alice, in New York. Joining them are Jix's brother Romulus (actually her cousin Caligos), and two droids Dyonus and Dyona. Can be found on [[http://www.theduckwebcomics.com/Jix/ The Duck]] or [[http://jix.thecomicseries.com/comics/ ComicFury]].

* JerkwithaHeartofGold: Paul is often show as a cynical, nearly humorless young adult that almost never leaves the SarcasmMode and serves as the "''unidimensional''" DeadpanSnarker of the strips. However, [[WordofGod according to the autor]], Paul is very kind and caring of Lauren, even i he doesn't shows this often. [[http://jix.thecomicseries.com/comics/366 this strip confirms his status]]. Later, in "'Kaijou''" Arc, after one of Lametrix's inventions accidently realeased a giant monster in New York and nearly killed Lauren and their unborn daughter, Paul was [[PapaWolf none to pleased with the results]] and [[http://jix.thecomicseries.com/comics/405 make's Lauren promised to have more control over Jix personalities]] [[JerkassHasAPoint citing that their recent actions are getting way to reckless for their safety]].

* ShoutOut: To several different sci-fi series, mostly VideoGame/{{Portal}} and VideoGame/TeamFortress2.

** Characters are commonly depicted watching Film/DieHard.
** One Christmas arc has Caligos confront an "[[SantaClaus intruder]]" on the roof, scaring him into falling off of it. Santa denies that it's exactly like TheSantaClause, because he survived the fall.

* ThereCanBeOnlyOne: Jix actually quotes Franchise/{{Highlander}} when killing her clone, the original Remula doesn't find it very amusing.

* AffablyEvil: Remula's father is this, believe it or not. He may be a intergalactical tyrant that is more than willing to achive revenge on anyone who crosses his path. However, [[http://jix.thecomicseries.com/comics/75 as show in this trip]], he's a suprisingly reasonable individual with you clear your mistake, is polite, and it's wort to metion that he only tried to kill Remulus because he believed that he kidnapped his daughter. Yep, [[PapaWolf he deeply cares for his family]].

* AlienAnimals: foxes share a common ancestor with Ambis and another alien race known as Amblians, thanks to the [[http://www.drunkduck.com/Jix/5297713/ meddling]] of the Tarians.

** And [[http://www.drunkduck.com/Jix/5336513/ once]] with [[http://www.drunkduck.com/Henchman_number_9/ Henchman no. 9]], one of his other comics.

* DataPad: Jix [[http://www.drunkduck.com/Jix/5267409/ once]] compared the [=iPad=] to her own species' tablet computers.

* FourthWallMailSlot: [[http://www.drunkduck.com/Jix/5370127/ Ask Remula]]

* HyperspaceArsenal: Used to explain where Ambis without clothes hide their guns. And where their [[ShapeshifterBaggage extra mass]] in feral mode [[http://www.drunkduck.com/Jix/5150211/ comes from]].

--> Jix: "[[http://www.drunkduck.com/Jix/5148523/ I got news from the Ambis that someone or something has targeted earth for destruction]]".

** Dyonus [[http://www.drunkduck.com/Jix/5245095/ watching]] ''Series/RedDwarf''.

** Indeed, Dyonus affections towards Jix is so strong that [[http://jix.thecomicseries.com/comics/253 even gender swapped]], [[SingleTargetSexuality Dyonus disregards this completly]] (It actually makes sense [[FridgeBrillance if you remenber]] that Ambis species doesn't have any strong sexaul dimorphism and, [[LampshadeHanging as notice by dyonus]], he is actually genderless being a robot).

--> Lauren: "[[TheHitchhikersGuideToTheGalaxy They aren't building a hyperspace bypass, are they?]]"

* AlmightyJanitor: As show in the ''Delicverancy Arc'', Paul is more than capable to bullie the whole hospital to do what he wants, despite being just a paramedic.

* JerkwithaHeartofGold: Paul is often show as a cynical, nearly humorless young adult that almost never leaves the SarcasmMode and serves as the "''unidimensional''" DeadpanSnarker of the strips. However, [[WordofGod according to the autor]], Paul is very kind and caring of Lauren, even i he doesn't shows this often. [[http://jix.thecomicseries.com/comics/366 this strip confirms his status]].

** However, how wacky or "''serious''" the story can get [[CerebusRollercoaster varies from Arc-to-Arc]]. The prequel "''Prelude to Jix''" is mildly but visible somber and character driven than most other arcs, with [[WordofGod the autor]] [[LampshadeHanging even commenting]] [[http://jix.thecomicseries.com/comics/206 that this particular arc was less funny than most of the other arcs]].

* OneWingedAngel: Ambis species is capable to turn into a "''fierce''", monstrous form [[LetsGetDangerous when they want to went into battle]]. Jix has done this since the beggining of the strip, and [[http://jix.thecomicseries.com/comics/77 as shown into this strip]], the Fierce Form greatly varies from an Ambis to Ambis, from a slightly hideous aspect to a hulkling brute.

* CerebusSyndrome: Slowly and downplayed to the point of near-aversion, because despite the character driven arcs, mild world bulding and [[CerebusRetcon some of the most surreal aspects of the webicomic being explained]] (or at least [[HandWave]]d), the webcomic is still pretty comedic and slice-a-life style, and the Fourt Wall Breaking never stops.

* FromASingleCell: The Planet Thief can actually regenerate from less than that. Having been [[HurlItIntoTheSun teleported into the sun]] multiple times.
** His daughter Aragara inherited the same ability.
