History YMMV / HowIBecameYoursRiseOfTheAgniArmy

* EvilIsSexy: Sho. And this is when we've only seen him on the poster so far.

* IncestSubtext: Let's see...the seemingly-adult Lilith and Kuzon both sleep in the same room, in separate beds that are not five feet away from each other, and their first dialogue together...well.
* MeaninglessMeaningfulWords: The supposed "review" on the cover is just a bunch of melodramatic words that don't make a lick of sense when put together. [[RougeAnglesOfSatin Plus, "heroes" is misspelled.]]

* StillbornFranchise: It's been years with no update, so it's likely going down this path.

* FridgeLogic:
** So if [[spoiler: Zuko and Katara are both dead, then who's ruling the Fire Nation?]]
** Didn't Mai get [[spoiler: ''bloodbent to death'']]?! HOW can she [[spoiler: be alive?]]

* FridgeLogic: So if [[spoiler: Zuko and Katara are both dead, then who's ruling the Fire Nation?]]
** Azula, maybe?
*** Or maybe Sho and Mai took the country by force with this mysterious Agni Army?
*** That looks likely now. Maybe it's not FridgeLogic just yet.
** If Lilith and Kuzon are bully meat for their parentage, why isn't Miracle? Sokka/Azula is just as much a mixed marriage as Zuko/Katara, and it's probably no secret that this Azula and the former Fire Nation Princess are one and the same except for the hair and personality transplant.
*** Three words: [[MamaBear Azula is terrifying]]. Scaring those brats away from her niece and nephew is the first uninterrupted badass moment she has in this series; the kids have probably learned from bitter experience that teasing Miracle is a BIG no-no. They suffer from AesopAmnesia in that they think Kuzon and Lilith are free game, though...

** This troper wonders if Kuzon and Miracle are meant to be [[KissingCousins Kissing Cousins]], just to continue the same Steam Babies pattern the first comic started.

* StillbornFranchise: It's been nearly 6 years with no update, so it's likely going down this path.

* SurprisinglyImprovedSequel: Both script and art (perhaps the coloration in particular) are notably superior to the original ''HIBY''. Among other things, there is more of an original plot, more worldbuilding, and [[LadyOfWar Azula acts more in character]]. Though detractors would aver that the typical SoapOpera cliches are still there, the pacing still needs work, and the art is still traced and copy-pasted.

** Of course they are! They were obviously designed by Sho, the really cool hold-over from the last comic.

* ViewerGenderConfusion: The old healer woman at the Water Tribe and the angry old man in [[RougeAnglesOfSatin Bong]] Sing Se are cut-and-paste clones of each other, much like most of the background characters. This resulted in at least one reader assuming that they were both men.

* SurprisinglyImprovedSequel: "Improved" meaning "less eye-gougingly annoying," in this case. The typical SoapOpera cliches are still there, the pacing still needs work, and the art is still traced and copy-pasted. But, since this comic mainly concerns the OC SpinOffspring, and not their parent characters, it's considered to be just a tad bit more readable than its predecessor.

* HarsherInHindsight: In Fanfic/HowIBecameYours, Toph, after learning that Sokka accidentally revealed the first Kuzon's existence to Zuko, says "Katara is going to kill you... I can only imagine what Mai will do to Zuko...". [[spoiler:Mai apparently ends up killing Zuko here]].

* {{Narm}}: On the poster, Miracle looks like she's drugged or something, and she appears cross-eyed too.
** That's all? She looks more like a skin-bleached, stoned-senseless Sokka in drag. And it's ''hilarious.''
