History TitleDrop / Webcomics

* ''WebComic/SluggyFreelance''

* ''[[Webcomic/VGCats Super Effective]]'': [[Franchise/{{Pokemon}} CHARMANDER used METAL CLAW!]] [[http://www.vgcats.com/super/?strip_id=33 IT'S SUPER EFFECTIVE!]]
* The "Trying Human Chip" in the comic ''Webcomic/TryingHuman''

* ''WebComic/SluggyFreelance''
** It took about two decades for Pete Abrams to reveal just what "Webcomic/SluggyFreelance" actually ''means''. That didn't stop him from dropping one of the two words without the other here and there like delicious, fan-baiting sprinkles before.
** Played straight but simultaneously unsuccessfully {{invoked}} in the story "Rescue Mission to the North Pole".
--> '''Squishydodo:''' Attention, Black Op Elves! We have a plea for help on a dangerous mission. And though [reverb] '''''NONE OF US MAY SURVIVE''''', we must try to rescue Christmas and attempt... ''the rescue mission to the North Pole!''
--> '''Squishydodo:''' You were supposed to reverb the "rescue mission to the Nort Pole" part.
--> '''Squintyhoyo''': Sorry, '''''MY BAD!'''''
* ''Webcomic/CurseQuest'': Avalon picks up a curse quest at the convention. Evidently a curse quest is a quest so deadly that no sane adventurer dares go on one. Avalon soon asks for twelve. Unlike other quest scrolls, a curse quest seems to be on fire, but that may just be an effect and not actual fire.
* Parodied in [[http://www.qwantz.com/index.php?comic=1218 this]] ''Webcomic/DinosaurComics'' comic.
** [[http://www.qwantz.com/index.php?comic=2009 This one]] advocates ending everything ever with a title drop. It actually works pretty well.
* Cameron Walden has quite the terrible case of ''{{Webcomic/Zoophobia}}''.

* Used in [[http://www.schlockmercenary.com/2000-06-18 one of the first]] ''Webcomic/SchlockMercenary'' strips. The name has not been used since.
** Until it was used as the name of the cartoon ShowWithinAShow about the Toughs.
** Then when the narrator mentions it [[http://www.schlockmercenary.com/2001-09-02 here]].
** The "Massively Parallel" chapter has several missions going on at the same time. The doctor throws in a title drop [[https://www.schlockmercenary.com/2009-12-31 on a totally unrelated subject.]]

* It was the worst case of ''Webcomic/ChoppingBlock'' [[http://www.choppingblock.org/d/20010410.html he'd ever endured.]]

* ''Webcomic/SomethingHappens'' appears in the introductory strip and [[http://www.somethinghappens.net/d/20081119.html the final strip of book one]]. Not that Something couldn't Happen more often.

* ''The Webcomic/CodeCrimson'' drops the the title of each issue at least once.
* [[Webcomic/MobTies "I gots me some Mob Ties!"]]
* [[http://www.lastres0rt.com/2009/12/and-scene/ Happens]] on ''Webcomic/LastRes0rt'' a couple of times.
%%* ''Webcomic/GrrlPower'': In a LeaningOnTheFourthWall [[http://grrlpowercomic.com/archives/1741 moment]].
* Referenced in ''Webcomic/{{Homestuck}}'':
-->Sometimes you feel like you are trapped in this room. Stuck, if you will, in a sense which possibly borders on the titular.
** Teased again when examining the Cruxtruder early in Act II
-->"Of all the places for Rose to drop the infernal thing. More than ever you feel...what's the word you're looking for?"\\
"Of course. Housetrapped."
** The term "Homestuck" does ultimately appear in the lyrics of the track [[Music/{{Homestuck}} Chain of Prospit]] from the Mobius Trip and Hadron Kaleido album.
-->''Hold up, there's data structures you can bone up''\\
''You might be feeling like you're home stuck''
** The titles of Homestuck's acts are all dropped with the exceptions of Act 4 and Intermission 2 (which doesn't even have any text, as it consists only of a single flash). Act 6 Act 1's can be found in a walkaround flash[[note]][S] Seer: Descend[[/note]] in Act 5 Act 2 as part of an item description, but is not dropped within the act itself.
** Several of [[Music/{{Homestuck}} Homestuck's albums]] have titles based on in comic quotes, such as [[http://mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=004975 Heir Transparent]], [[http://mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005530 At the Price of Oblivion]], and [[http://mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=006044 coloUrs and mayhem]].
* ''Webcomic/NoNeedForBushido'' does this at least twice, once very early in the comic and once a hundred or so strips in.
* ''Webcomic/HarkAVagrant'' does this [[http://www.harkavagrant.com/index.php?id=132 here.]]
* ''Boobs Ahoy!'' pulls one [[http://www.drunkduck.com/Boobs_Ahoy/index.php?p=709142 here]]. The only surprise is that it took this long.
** [[http://www.drunkduck.com/Boobs_Ahoy/index.php?p=334319 Guess what?]] It happened a lot sooner than you think.
* ''[[Webcomic/VGCats Super Effective]]'': [[Franchise/{{Pokemon}} CHARMANDER used METAL CLAW!]] [[http://www.vgcats.com/super/?strip_id=33 IT'S SUPER EFFECTIVE!]]
* In ''Webcomic/{{Harkovast}}'' this happens on the very first [[http://www.drunkduck.com/Harkovast/index.php?p=473700 page]] and again [[http://www.drunkduck.com/Harkovast/index.php?p=722223 here.]]
* In ''Webcomic/SecondEmpire'', a ''Series/DoctorWho'' comic centered on the Daleks, a multi-page exchange between two Dalek characters [[http://www.cg-lair.co.uk/daleks/secemp182.htm incorporates practically every episode title]] of Dalek-centric stories from ''Series/DoctorWho''. For a TitleDrop, it's about as subtle as being hit upside the head with a bag of hammers, but ''Webcomic/SecondEmpire'' holds its tongue very much in cheek.
%%* ''Moon over June'' does it [[http://moonoverjune.com/go/173 here]]. [[LampshadeHanging Lampshaded]].
* Parodied, along with so many other things, in ''Webcomic/IWasKidnappedByLesbianPiratesFromOuterSpace''. OnceAnEpisode the main character informs someone, sometimes herself, that she has been kidnapped and by whom.
* ''Webcomic/{{Qxlkbh}}'' [[DiscussedTrope discusses]] this in [[https://qxlkbh.github.io/9 9: title drop]], where it's pointed out that qxlkbh is a meaningless string that would be hard to fit into a sentence... if qxlkbh wasn't so willing to break the fourth wall:
---> '''Doctor''': But we've got to preserve some sense of logic in ''qxlkbh'' somehow!
* ''Webcomic/{{Fans}}'' occasionally dropped their title into the story, notably in [[http://www.faans.com/books1-6/index.php?p=1610 this strip]] toward the end of their first GrandFinale, before the {{Revival}};
-->'''Rikk:''' People might call us crazy, and once in awhile me might almost believe them. But we're used to that. We're ''Webcomic/{{Fans}}''.
* ''Webcomic/ACompleteWasteOfTime'' does this so often, and in response to events which are, well, [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin a complete waste of time]], that it's become something of a RunningGag.
* ''Webcomic/CyanideAndHappiness'': [[http://www.explosm.net/comics/121/ "What's it made out of?"]]
* ''Webcomic/HannaIsNotABoysName'' gets this in the second strip (which runs continually from the first), when [[SupportingProtagonist the narrator]] first meets [[GenderBlenderName Hanna]].
* Done on ''Webcomic/PlusEV'' [[http://plusev.keenspot.com/d/20060908.html here.]]
* At the beginning of ''Webcomic/TheNoob'', Ohforf meets a level 75 character who [[http://thenoobcomic.com/index.php?pos=4 calls him a noob]].
* The first chapter of ''Webcomic/DarthsAndDroids'' is called ''[[Film/ThePhantomMenace The Phantasmal Malevolence]]''. 828 episodes later, in the middle of ''[[Film/ANewHope A New Generation]]'', we get [[http://www.darthsanddroids.net/episodes/0828.html this]]:
-->'''Clone Trooper 2''': Do you think he's dangerous? This... phantasm?
-->'''Clone Trooper 1''': He's malevolent, you mark my words.
* "[[http://asofterworld.com/index.php?id=3 In the caves behind my house I found]] ''Webcomic/ASofterWorld''
* ''WebComic/{{Precocious}}'': [[http://www.precociouscomic.com/archive/comic/2011/02/11 Here.]]
* ''WebComic/GirlGenius'':
** when Gil is outsmarted by Agatha ''again''.
--> '''[[http://www.girlgeniusonline.com/comic.php?date=20140407#.Vv50LOIrLIU Bang:]]''' I mean, if they ever write this down, they ain't gonna be calling it "'''''boy''''' genius".
** Various non-canon chapters end with "[[OnTheNext tune in for the next adventures of Agatha Heterodyne, Girl Genius]]". It's finally done in-canon with a [[ShowWithinAShow Heterodyne play]] [[http://www.girlgeniusonline.com/comic.php?date=20200624 courtesy of]] Master Payne's Circus of Adventure, followed by the tagline "Adventure, romance, mad science!" a few pages later.
* In one of ''WebComic/SomethingPositive'''s [[http://www.somethingpositive.net/sp03152002.shtml early strips]]:
--> "Davan, this has to stop, okay? You're always so negative and angry, and it really worries me. You're not nearly the bad person you think you are, and things WILL get better. You've got to go do something positive with your life. I say this as a friend who cares about you."
** Bonus points for being the title's meta-origin: in RealLife the author started the comic because his friend Clarine, [[WriteWhoYouKnow who served as inspiration for Aubrey's character]], gave him this same speech, "something positive" included.
* ''Webcomic/StandStillStaySilent'': [[http://sssscomic.com/comic.php?page=68 early into the comic]] in a significant way, as it's defined as the post-apocalyptic world's [[RuleNumberOne first rule]] on the [[EncyclopediaExposita info page]].
* Each chapter of ''Webcomic/BloodSplatteredSocks'' is named after a line within it.
* While the first strip, and a few afterwards, of ''Webcomic/LightningMadeOfOwls'' make reference to its NonSequitur title, referring to the title is discouraged on the comic's submission page.
* "{{Webcomic/Phantomarine}}" is the name of the local PowerCrystal, which generates light to repel seaghosts, not needing an electrical current like the related Revenite. Interestingly, Pavel was given a lantern with Phantomarine in it when ''all'' of the substance in the known world ''should'' be in the Lighthouse Road.
* Occurs twice in ''Webcomic/PragueRace'', [[http://www.praguerace.com/comic/valuable-things here]] and much later [[http://www.praguerace.com/comic/death-itself here]]. We still don't know exactly what it means, though.
* Happens in ''Webcomic/{{Plume}}'' after Vesper goes on her RoaringRampageOfRevenge:
-->''My father used to say that revenge is like a plume of smoke.''

* ''Webcomic/GuildedAge'': In the AltText of [[http://guildedage.net/webcomic/chapter-12/chapter-12-page-7/ this strip]].
* In ''Webcomic/UndeadFriend'', the title is the same name as the game the main characters get stuck in, so the title show sup frequently. It is shown in-comic first in [[http://undeadfriend.com/comic/undead-friend-chapter-02-page-19/ Chapter 2]] (though not said out loud until [[http://undeadfriend.com/comic/undead-friend-chapter-06-page-07/ Chapter 6]]).
* "We're Webcomic/TeamFortress2. And you're dead."
* On the [[http://www.dangerouslychloe.com/strips-dc/the-end final page]] of ''Webcomic/DangerouslyChloe''.
* Title dropped here in ''Webcomic/IHateYou'' ''[[https://tapas.io/episode/596889 Chapter 7: page 21]]''
* in ''Webcomic/HueAreYou'', the main protagonist, Build-a, gets asked this question a lot during the beginning of her adventure
* [[https://lovenotfound.com/comic/ch01-p09a/ This strip]] of ''Webcomic/LoveNotFound'' drops its title when Abeille tries to search for "love" as a valid requirement for a satisfying sexual experience, only to get an error message: "LOVE NOT FOUND."
* In ''WebComic/KillSixBillionDemons'', [[TheChooserOfTheOne Zoss]] shows up in [[OncePerEpisode every book]] to make a speech including the book's title. By the fourth book, the author's commentary in the AltText even refers to the "title drop part" of the book.
* Subverted in ''Webcomic/AwfulHospital''.
--> '''Celia''': Staphie, what's a word for something "full" of "awe," in a bad way?
--> '''Staph''': "Sucks."
* ''Webcomic/{{Unsounded}}'': Duane [[https://www.casualvillain.com/Unsounded/comic/ch16/ch16_101.html name-drops]] the site on which the comic is hosted (casualvillain.com):
-->'''Duane:''' Such casual villains we are.
* ''Webcomic/HeroineChic'': Zoe starts out as an intern working for a designer who makes fashionable super-suits for big-name heroes. When she strikes out on her own, Zoe names her business "Heroine Chic."
* ''Webcomic/{{Muted}}'': Athalie drops it in Episode 45 after [[spoiler: Camille exposes her GreenThumb powers in front of her.]]
--> '''Athalie:''' You'll be ''Muted'' for this, Camille.
* ''Webcomic/LittleNuns'' In the arc leading to [[MilestoneCelebration episode 1000]], a runaway girl who came to the convent looking for her cousin is writing in her diary with each episode. In the second page (#982), she writes [[https://twitter.com/hyxpk/status/1709237070747844753 that little nuns came with ducks]] when they noticed her.
* ''Webcomic/ExperienceBoost'': Keran tries to name the guild that she and Vedrana are starting "Experience Boost". Vedrana is having [[https://www.xpboostcomic.com/comic/legacy-naming/ none of it]].

* ''Webcomic/LittleNuns'' In the arc leading to [[MilestoneCelebration episode 1000]], a runaway girl who came to the convent looking for her cousin is writing in her diary with each episode. In the second page (#982), she writes [[https://twitter.com/hyxpk/status/1709237070747844753 that little nuns]] came with ducks when they noticed her.

* Subverted in ''Webcomic/{{Shortpacked}}'', making reference to ''Webcomic/{{Roomies}}'' when [[http://www.shortpacked.com/index.php?id=730 the main characters share a house]].

*** The term "homestuck" does ultimately appear in the lyrics of the track [[Music/{{Homestuck}} Chain of Prospit]] from the Mobius Trip and Hadron Kaleido album.

* The last two words of ''Webcomic/BetterDays'' were...well, [[http://www.jaynaylor.com/betterdays/archives/2009/05/chapter-25-bett-9.html just that]].

* ''Webcomic/AwkwardZombie'' has a veeeeeeery subtle one [[http://www.awkwardzombie.com/comic1-030209.php here]].

* In ''WebComic/KillSixBillionDemons'', [[TheChooserOfTheOne Zoss]] shows up in [[OncePerEpisode every book]] to make a speech including the book's title. By the fourth book, the author's commentary in the AltText even refers to the "title drop part on in this book."
