The Comic Adventures of Left & Right is a dada webcomic by chickensnack. It is about two friends, Left and Right. Needs a Better Description because I'm still at a loss how to describe it in general.
This webcomic provides examples of:
- Alt Text - Inserted retroactively as of September 2010.
- Art Shift - One strip titled "Webcomic" is drawn in the stereotypical webcomic style, complete with "really long buildup and stupid punchline".
- Art Evolution - The first few dozen comics are smaller than the current standard and "do not have the nintendo seal of approval".
- Barbie Doll Anatomy - Averted in "Skins".
- Bland-Name Product - Referenced in "Parody Brand Names".
- Crossover - With several other webcomics in the Halloween strip "Richard Butt"
- Dada Comic - Especially the MS Paint strips.
- "Glad to Be Alive" Sex - Escape from Demonic Hell House
- Grave Humor - A Running Gag involves characters dying and cutting to their gravestone with an oddly specific epitaph.
- High-Class Glass - Subverted; whatever Carpaccio is wearing apparently isn't a monocle.
- Hollywood Game Design - A well-known and particularly Narmful commercial was parodied in "Tightness". The comment even asks "BUT AT WHAT COST????"
- Hot Skitty-On-Wailord Action - Owldog's father is a giant talking owl and his mother is a dog.
- Inexplicably Identical Individuals - The character Guy, a mostly nondescript blob, is "actually many different guys. Also sometimes gals".
- Keet - Paperchan
- Magic Feather
- Mix-and-Match Critters - Owldog is the result of "unspeakable owl/dog atrocities."
- MS Paint - Some comics are published in this style for various reasons, usually tiredness or laziness.
- Negative Continuity
- Nice Hat - Guy's hat broadcasts his mood or thoughts. The Magic Tree Saga revealed that it is an LCD hat, although it's possible that this hat is only one of his hats.
- More direct in "Hat Selection"
- No Celebrities Were Harmed - Abe
- No Indoor Voice - Owldog's father
- Most of the author's comments coupled with the strips are written in all caps.
- No Name Given - For much of the comic's run, many recurring characters did not have names. On 13 August 2009, the author put up a cast page to correct this, thus legitimizing it as a "real webcomic".
- Perpetual Frowner - Owldog's default expression
- Remix Comic - Via the site's randomizer. Much of its output is gold.
- Punk Punk - Parodied in Golfcon
- Ripped from the Headlines
- Schmuck Bait - The Cave of Regret arc.
- Show Within a Show - Geeknerds.EXE; Paperchan; Mutt Patrol.
- The Stoic - Rarely does Owldog break his default facial expression.
- Take That - "R.I.P. Left & Right - It Was 'Because Of Winn-Dixie'"
- There Are No Girls on the Internet - "Video Games"
- Unusual Euphemism - Subverted in "Crops"
- Visual Pun - Much of its humor is founded on language jokes.
- Written Sound Effect - *grate grate*.
