10!'''This comic/serial contains examples of:'''
11* AffablyEvil: Fenris occasional tends toward this, his rapidly shifting moods resulting in him making polite conversation while he attempts to tear people limb from limb.
12* DuctTapeForEverything: Handyman can make anything out of duct tape. Handkerchiefs, lasers, hand grenades, even ''cars''. He claims that anyone can do it.
13* MadScientist: Dr. Echhs.
14* TheNoseKnows: Nimble can smell magic. (It works like a sort of synesthesia, with different varieties of magic having distinct scents.)
15* NotSoHarmlessVillain: [[spoiler:Dr. Echhs again.]]
16* NinjaPirateZombieRobot: Ash, the Zombie Ninja Tree. (Both a tree that grows ninja zombies and a tree that ''is'' one.)
17* NighInvulnerable: Being a world of superheroes, this comes up a lot, but special mention must be made to Invictus, who has a lot less "nigh" than most but no super-strength to go with it. In addition to being physically invulnerable, he's also immune to illusions and mental assaults.
18* PlantPerson /GreenThumb: Blossom.
19* TerribleIntervieweesMontage: Seen early on in the comic.
20* TheoryOfNarrativeCausality: As fundamental to the workings of this universe as the laws of physics. So much so that characters who [[GenreSavvy know how stories work]] can use it to their advantage.
21* WhamLine: [[spoiler:"Actually... I am Rex Mundi."]]
