* CreatorBacklash: As mentioned on the tropes page, the comic became (in)famous on the ''Escher Girls'' blog in the mid-2010's for it's overuse of BoobsAndButtPose and MostCommonSuperpower, with contributors sending in their own redraws of the comic panels. Randy Queen sent a takedown request to tumblr, accusing the blog of, through their redraws, of plagiarizing his work, and even tried to take them to court. He would later apologize on his Facebook after the subsequent fan-backlash.
