* JumpingOffTheSlipperySlope: In the original series, Turbo was a ReasonableAuthorityFigure and saved Mainframe from destruction by delaying the detonation of a bomb the Guardians planted on Mouse.

Turbo also complains about the Guardians being {{Obstructive Bureaucrat}}s, despite them not really being portrayed as such in the original series.

''[=ReBoot=]: Code of Honor'' is a three-part [[SequelInAnotherMedium webcomic sequel]] to ''WesternAnimation/ReBoot''.

The comic picks up after a TimeSkip from the ending of ''My Two Bobs'', with Megabyte still in control of the Principal Office, and Mainframe now completely devastated and overrun with Megabyte's Zombinomes.

Having just rescued Phong, Bob and co. are planning to evacuate Mainframe, to take refuge in the Supercomputer.
