* TerrorAtMakeOutPoint: Happens often since this comic uses and deconstructs all horror tropes, but "Golconda!" offers a unique twist to it when two teenagers making out in the woods get killed by a giant tentacular eye, and more surreal events take place from that moment on. [[spoiler: In the end it's explained that the place where the two teens went was a spot of unexplored land, where no human ever set foot in history, and by doing so while making love [[UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom they opened a breach]] that allowed some "Elemental Sprites" (the eye, the men with bowler hats, etc.) to come out and wreak havoc, thus Dylan and the GirlOfTheWeek seal it by having sex in that spot]].
