10!!''Ananthalos'' provides examples of the following tropes:
11
12* ComedicUnderwearExposure: During his job interview, Anathalos' shirt rides up, exposing his high-cut panties.
13* DisappointingOlderSibling: Anathalos' sister owns their family hotel. She is less than supportive when she finds out about her brother's cross-dressing.
14* DreadfulMusician: Anathalos drives Gruvalg up the wall with his [[https://www.deviantart.com/jakamural/art/Road-Trip-771012361l painful rendition of Blur's Girls & Boys.]]
15* FunctionalMagic: Ananthalos makes a point of describing the practical applications of his magic.
16* Hunk: Square-jawed, shaven-headed and muscular, Gruvalg the orc is definitely the hunk.
17* PrettyBoy: Anathalos. Thanks to his pretty features and goth haircut, he'd have an androgynous appeal even if he wasn't into wearing women's clothing.
18* TheChosenOne: Averted. Ananthalos is selected for the quest through a job interview.
19* TheQuest: The whole purpose of the comic. Ananthalos, Gruvalg and their company are seeking a fabled hammer.
20* OurOrcsAreDifferent: Gruvalg is intelligent and rational as opposed to the barely-articulate orc archetype still found in a lot of fantasy stories. With his green coloring and bald head, he also appears more like an ogre. The comic's creator acknowledges that Shrek was an inspiration for Gruvalg's character design.
