'''''Rusty and Co.''''' is a fantasy webcomic, based on ''DungeonsAndDragons'', about a very odd trio of adventurers. And by very odd, we mean they are [[MonsterAdventurers literally monsters]].
With the charismatic Mimic, absurdly cute rust monster Rusty, and the silent yet deadly Gelatinous Cube, the three set out in search of fame, fortune, and experience levels. Of course, things that would be obstacles to more conventional adventurers pose no problem for these three, whereas other more simple tasks create great difficulties. Expect hilarity (with a side of LampshadeHanging) to [[HilarityEnsues ensue]].
Can be found [[http://rustyandco.com/ here]].
----
!!''Rusty and Co.'' provides examples of:
* AddedAlliterativeAppeal: [[AlliterativeName Prestige Perkins]], practiced practitioner of practical prestidigitation.
* AltText
* AncestralWeapon: The dwarf's quest is to recover one of these.
* ArtEvolution: After the first chapter (or level, as it's called), the artwork becomes more streamlined. This gets lampshaded in a bonus strip, with a ShoutOut to ''TheOrderOfTheStick''.
* ArtShift: Pulled off due to the Belt of Genre Changing.
* [[AttackOfThe50FootWhatever Attack of the 50-Foot Whatever]]: This is what results from Rusty getting hold of the Belt of Genre Changing.
-->'''Rusty: ''EAT TOKYO?'' '''
* AttentionDeficitOohShiny: Parodied. It's implied all of the main trio suffer from this.
* AnAxeToGrind: Cleave-Hand.
* BadassBoast: Of the villainous variety:
-->'''Calamitus:''' Do you think mundane '''matter''' could best '''my''' formidable necromantic '''powers'''? I have '''transcended''' the limits of mere '''flesh''' and '''blood'''...and I will '''shatter''' your '''bodies''' and '''dance''' upon your '''entrails'''!
* BarBrawl: Madeline ends up starting one.
* BlandNameProduct: Who doesn't want a can of Cloaker-Cola?
* BlindingBangs: Used to great effect to hide the fact that one of the Pixie Chicks helping the princess [[spoiler:is really Roxanne]].
* BlobMonster: Gelatinous Cube
* BrainBleach: Mimic wants lots of beer so he can forget that the princess is [[BoyMeetsGhoul in love with a wight]].
* BrickJoke
** Remember the dwarf from level 1? Yes, the same one who gave the first quest, was killed by Gelatinous Cube, [[IGotBetter got better]], [[spoiler:and was killed again by Cube]]? He's seen at the very end of level 4, in the aftermath of the ''BigBad'' battle. It's never explained how [[spoiler:he got better a second time...]]
** Remember the "magic" hoe Madeline purchased from a gnome? Well, on Level 5 that guy tries to sell more cutlery.
** ChekhovsGunman: Remember the barbarian ("Robespierre [[HulkSpeak SMASH!]]")? He reappears. So far, twice.
* ByTheLightsOfTheirEyes
* CaptainColorbeard: Plaidbeard, the dwarven pirate.
* ChestMonster: Mimic
* ChromeChampion: Calamitus's giant metal golem.
-->'''Rusty:''' Eat statue ''Eat statue'' '''Eat statue''' Eat statue ''Eat statue''???
* ConMan: Or con gnome, to be precise. This is how Madeline got her hoe, which she originally thought was magic.
* CoolHorse: Parodied.
* DistressedDamsel: Subverted, naturally. The princess is actually very good at combat.
* TheDitz: Madeline the paladin
* DoubleEntendre: Leads to Mimic concluding that the comic will [[LampshadeHanging never pass muster]] [[PaintingnTheFourthWall with the Comics Code Authority]].
* DressedToKill: The illithid mobsters.
* DungeonmastersGirlfriend: The princess claims to have taken a level (or more) in this "VERY obscure and VERY powerful prestige class" when she was imprisoned.
* [[EveryoneCallsHimBarkeep Everyone Calls Her Princess]]: The princess. Her real name has not yet been given.
* EvilGloating: Calamitus has a nasty tendency to get caught up in this, allowing the good guys to surprise him.
* ExtremeOmnivore: As long as it's metal, Rusty will want to eat it. At least he (usually) asks first...
* FingerPokeOfDoom
** Subverted (in a literal sense) with a magic spell.
-->'''Calamitus:''' Well, that's the good thing about magic. [...] [[IncrediblyLamePun It's handy.]]
** And again by Prestige. It's not the finger that's deadly, it's the Melf's Acid Arrow being emitted by it.
* FourthWallMailSlot: ''Critical Missives'' in-between chapters.
* GenreRoulette: With an item called the Belt of Genre Changing... you can guess what happens.
* GlamourFailure: Mimic's lips are visible regardless of his form.
* GoodAngelBadAngel: Parodied with Mimic, who has these two arguing over how to phrase doing the exact same thing.
