History Webcomic / BeyondTheCanopy

** Also the preferred method of combat of the minor Sprigg character, Poncy (who was [[FanNickname nicknamed "Bottle Sprigg"]] well before his actual name was revealed).

-->'''Granpa:''' Glenn, someday you'll realize [[CuriosityKilledTheCast even simple curiosity can have its consequences]]. It'd do you a world of good to listen more often.\\

* BrickJoke: [[http://beyondthecanopy.com/?webcomic_post=beyond-the-canopy-206 "Remind me to update]] the [[http://beyondthecanopy.com/?webcomic_post=beyond-the-canopy-142 skeleton chart."]]

->''Maybe all I need is one little push...''

* ExpressiveMask: Played straight with Greliz (who combines it with DisembodiedEyebrows), averted with the Caped Crustacean [[spoiler:(who turns out to be Greliz in disguise).]]
** Also applies to the various skeletal minions of the bad guys.

* GrievousBottleyHarm: How the chickens knock out Glade.

* NightmareFetishist: Elmsly. He's excited about going to visit a swamp full of poisonous wildlife, and he wishes he could have studied the spider crabs that Glenn fought.
** Recently, he called a pack of mutant zombie dogs adorable.
*** To be fair, some of them were fairly adorable for Frankensteinian zombie dogs.

*** Another one [[http://beyondthecanopy.com/?id=219 closely resembles]] [[Webcomic/{{Homestuck}} Bec Noir]].

*** Glenn is also a kind of mango, so there's that too, although not as likely as coming from glen.

* TheVoiceless: Stump.

* SlasherSmile: [[TheBeastmaster Rawhide]] gives us a nice one [[http://beyondthecanopy.com/?webcomic_post=beyond-the-canopy-211-212 here]]. Though as to why a skeleton has a tongue, well, [[MST3KMantra it's best to just roll with it]].

** [[http://beyondthecanopy.com/?webcomic_post=beyond-the-canopy-143 Greliz's office]] has figurines of what look like [[VideoGame/{{Metroid}} Mother Brain]], [[VideoGame/{{Minecraft}} a creeper]], and what might be a [[Franchise/{{Pokemon}} Gengar]].

* ShoutOut: In [[http://beyondthecanopy.com/?webcomic_post=beyond-the-canopy-104 this strip]], Glenn [[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaOcarinaOfTime grabs a chicken and uses it to glide]].

** According to [[http://www.beyondthecanopy.com/?id=149 Elmsly and Stump]], skeletons [[OnePiece can't grow afros]].
** [[http://beyondthecanopy.com/?webcomic_post=beyond-the-canopy-143 Greliz's office]] has figurines of what look like [[{{Metroid}} Mother Brain]], [[VideoGame/{{Minecraft}} a creeper]], and what might be a [[Franchise/{{Pokemon}} Gengar]].
** A [[http://beyondthecanopy.com/?webcomic_post=beyond-the-canopy-280 couple of the zombie dogs]] running around look suspiciously like [[TheMuppetShow Rowlf]] and [[Franchise/{{Pokemon}} a Herdier]].

* BecauseYouWereNiceToMe: Clyde the frankendog rebels against Rawhide because Elmsy treats him with love and kindness, whereas Rawhide has only threats.

Beginning in early 2009 by Jonathan Griffiths (better known as greliz on Website/{{deviantART}}), ''Beyond the Canopy'' can be found [[http://beyondthecanopy.com/ here]]. Needs way more love on here as well.

* ThereWasADoor: Well, there is a window in the room, it's just not high enough for Chief Redwood. [[http://beyondthecanopy.com/?webcomic_post=beyond-the-canopy-166 So he makes a new one.]]

** According to [[http://beyondthecanopy.com/?webcomic_post=beyond-the-canopy-142 Elmsly and Stump]], skeletons [[OnePiece can't grow afros]].

* LameComeback

* BananaInTheTailpipe: More of a chair leg in an exhaust tube, but this is how Glenn beats Paulo [[http://beyondthecanopy.com/?webcomic_post=beyond-the-canopy-83 in their first encounter]].

* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: [[spoiler:Paulo]] is genuinely upset when [[spoiler: Tiny Tin is [[http://beyondthecanopy.com/?webcomic_post=beyond-the-canopy-202 trashed.]]]]

* GadgeteerGenius: Paulo. It comes from being the created son of an inventor. Now if only he wasn't such a {{Jerkass}} about it...

** Paulo's dad, an inventor who lives in a ClockTower, has a [[Franchise/{{Castlevania}} Medusa Head]] [[http://beyondthecanopy.com/?webcomic_post=beyond-the-canopy-32 figurine]].
