History Webcomic / Niels

** Short version: like {{Dexter}}, Niels is a sociopath who has a very few people he has an honest emotional connection to and cares about, but unlike Dexter does not channel his psychopathic tendencies into trying to do good.

* GroinAttack: See example for Bratty Teenage Daughter

* HotMom: Natalie and Irene.

[[http://nielsg.com/ Niels]] is a comic done by {{Humon}}, of ''ScandinaviaAndTheWorld'' fame.

Recent additions to the cast include Billy, a very masculine woman and a family friend of Niels, Duncan, and Natalie; her bodybuilder girlfriend Rose; [[BreakoutCharacter Agent 250]], an extremely [[BadassGay badass]], extremely [[ManlyGay manly]] agent who is tasked with keeping Agent 300 focused in his job - and who, eventually, befriends him [[spoiler: and gets him out of the closet]]; and Niels' [[spoiler: biologically female]] son Magnus.

!!Tropes present in Niels are:

* AdultChild: Niels. This is actually examined in depth.
** Agent 300 also has moments of this.

* ButNotTooEvil: After growing sick of all the [[DracoInLeatherPants Draco-ing]] of rapist/child molester/cult leader Peter, Humon posted an image of him about to [[{{Squick}} molest his daughter]], to underline the fact that "He is not a nice person, no matter how [[EvillyAffable funny]] he is." The InternetBackdraft was incredible. Most of it was made of people asking [[CompletelyMissingThePoint how could she draw something so cruel]].

* LaserGuidedKarma: [[http://www.deviantart.com/?#/d37fawp Poor Peter.]] Only not, because, well, [[CompleteMonster you know.]]
* LaughablyEvil: Peter may be a CompleteMonster, but when he shows up, it's usually funny.

* MistakenNationality: Agent 300 is often mistaken for English for being a parody of the JamesBond-type character and his overall politeness and manner of speaking. In reality, he's Scottish. [[http://fav.me/d3j8z2h And very good at log-throwing, thankyouverymuch.]]

* HeroicBSOD: Agent 300 has two, one where he realizes that yes, he is crushing on Niels, and no, it is not a case of StupidSexyFlanders or EvenTheGuysWantHim, and the other where he's fired for fraternizing with Niels.

** Agent 300, as well, before he got fired.

* NamesTheSame: [[spoiler: Magnus, who as an FtM Transgender initially chose to use the male name 'Niels'.]]

* RunningGag: Agent 300 will ''never'' let Agent 250 forget that his daughter almost bit of his man parts. Surprisingly, Agent 250 doesn't seem to mind hearing about his daughter's... [[ReallyGetsAround conquests]].

* RelationshipUpgrade: [[spoiler: "I sleep in the nude."]]

* SpotlightStealingSquad: The moment Agent 250 was introduced, he and 300 had been getting much more attention than Niels and the others, mostly because if 250 was in the same room as the other's he'd shoot them dead. Humon seems to enjoy making multiple pages of their budding relationship.

* WhamEpisode: This strip: [[http://fc04.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2011/183/0/6/all_very_simple_by_humon-d3kqrwc.jpg]] [[spoiler:After 250 and 300 have basically taken over the script, it suddenly ends with Niels taking it, and 300, back, violently.]]

Recent additions to the cast include Billy, a very masculine woman and a family friend of Niels, Duncan, and Natalie; her bodybuilder girlfriend Rose; [[BreakoutCharacter Agent 250]], a BadassGay who is tasked with keeping Agent 300 focused in his job - and who, eventually, befriends him [[spoiler: and gets him out of the closet]]; and Niels' [[spoiler: biologically female]] son Magnus.

Recent additions to the cast include Billy, a very masculine woman who apparently also sleeps with Niels, is attracted to Natalie, has a girlfriend named Rose, and at least makes out with Duncan ([[WordofGod Humon]] calls her a 'family friend'); [[BreakoutCharacter Agent 250]], a tough man who is tasked with keeping Agent 300 focused in his job - and who, eventually, befriends him [[spoiler: and gets him out of the closet]]; and Niels' [[spoiler: biologically female]] son Magnus.

* OverlordJr: What Elliot is shaping up to be. [[WordOfGod Humon]] says that how much of this Elliot becomes depends on how much influence Niels has over him growing up.
