There are three kinds of LFG fans: The fans who got into the comic after Cerebus Syndrome set in, the kinds who think it suffered Seasonal Rot after Cerebus Syndrome set in, and the kind who like the comic either way.
The fans are divided on those who find Benny and Cale's dynamic funny, and those who think Benny is abusive and toxic.
Commander Kickass (the general of the armies of Legaria).
Cale's master in the flashback was dubbed Elven Sean Connery.
Fridge Brilliance: Benny has spent less time in battle compared to the other characters ever since she and Cale started their relationship when before, she was one of the major combatants. This is because Cale is purposely keeping her out of harms way for fear of losing her. Incidentally, this treatment is also pissing her off.
For that matter, most of Richard’s signature Black Comedy becomes this when it is revealed he despises what he has become and at all times is desperately clinging on to what he was like before he died.
Krunch's father and Commander Kickass. Search your feelings, you know it to be true.
Also Richard/Cale. Cale set his arm on fire when Richard left. Also, he flies him on a kite during a trip on a ship. And glomps him when he returns after the fire incident. And the reason he set his arm on fire was him fondly remembering when Richard possessed him (and used his fire powers while in Cale's body.)
"Chicken need Squishy." "Chicken does need Squishy."
And Richard/Archmage. Try and deny it, there's got to be a reason for the Archmage/bunny crying after Richard's banishment.
Richard, surprisingly enough. If he doesn't continually kill innocents, he loses his powers. All of his powers. His undeath (i.e. his immortality, inability to feel pain, and ease of regeneration) and his magic. His insane actions are shown to be a bit of a facade, as he's aware he's doing evil things, but he is doing them in hope for the Greater Good. The crazier he acts the less responsibility he has to take for his actions, and the less clearly he remembers his old self.
Hctib Elttil's backstory shows him to have been optimistic and having a stable family life prior to becoming Richard's companion. His time with Richard drove him to insanity and caused his entire life to fall apart.
They Wasted a Perfectly Good Plot: The series tends to rely on filler gag strips to pad out the chapters, however this means interesting sub-plots that are brought up, like Richard's headless body becoming sentient are solved within a few pages.
Too Bleak, Stopped Caring: The characters do more and more morally grey things as time goes by to the point you question if you should support him, Richard's sadistic acts often go beyond the point of hilarity and even Cale's attempts to go back to doing good in the later parts of the comic either backfire horribly, or he ends up helping someone evil unknowingly.
Vanilla Protagonist: The point of Cale's character is to be the standard Truth and Justice style hero in a cast of colorful and morally dubious characters. He eventually loses this status.
