Comic Sightings

From Homestar Runner Wiki

F@NB0Y$

The artist, Scott DeWitt is a Homestar Runner fan. One of the main characters, Lemmy, has it on his iPod, Sylvia's friend Kirstin has Strong Bad on her bag, and there was a reference to Teen Girl Squad in his drawing tutorial prior to the tutorial's removal. Also, after F@NBOY$ won the Joystiq Wrap-up, and the cast thinks they're internet celebrities, Strong Bad is among those laughing at them.

After it was announced that Trogdor will be in Guitar Hero II, a comic was made in which the gang plays air guitar and air bass.

A comic called The Homestarmy was made after it was found out about the wiki and his entry in the sightings. Strong Bad then instructs The Cheat to take out Lemmy with a sniper rifle.

Types (now in stereo). Paul is thinking of more ideas for the comic. He gives up and throws away the notepad. All it has on it are pictures of So and So, Cheerleader, The Ugly One and What's Her Face, respectively.

The first panel of Intermission: Who Shot First? shows Chess painting miniatures of an unspecified tabletop game, one of them is Strong Bad.

In the comic called First Day on the Job Part 8 When the Xbox falls on Lemmy's head the boxes next to it are for Rhino Feeder and "Secret Collect 2", both have pictures of Strong Bad on the cover. There is also what appears to be a Homestar Runner keychain or pez dispenser in the last panel.

In the comic Popular Trends, in the final panel, which has a Muppet Babies parody, the blocks on the floor spell H*R, the abbreviation for Homestar Runner.

The title of the comic Meshing on the Trembolos is a reference to the blurb that appears while Trogdor (song) loads on Guitar Hero II: "For squeadlies, mash on the trembalo"

In another example of "-'d" words, when the cat, driving the Buick, leaps off the 3rd ramp, it does a barrel roll, and the panel says "BARREL ROLL'D"

The title of the comic All Up On's is a reference to the recurring phrase. The corresponding news snippet for this particular comic also has an example of "-'d" words (in this case, "cash'd").

Scott makes a reference to Strong Bad Email when he talks about getting "a zillion sbemails".

In Piece de Resistance, Paul is playing online and as he kills his enemies, they drop out of the game and one of them is named So and so.

The old F@nboy$ Mini #12 (no longer available) starts off with a description of Mario as such: He's short, dumpy, chubby, silly-looking and always has a smile on his face. He is an OK guy." The last sentence is a reference to flashback.

A guest comic done by webcomic Slackerz used the word "cash'd", an example of -'d words.

• Cash'd was used again in Shady Deals when Paul bribes the grim reaper.

The first panel of the old F@nb0y$ Mini #20 has Homestar's face on the microphone.

On December 10, 2007, when Scott Dewitt posted a comic about his writer's block, an updated blog post was put up and the previous one (which was basically everything stated in the comic that day) was replaced with "Baleeted"

The image file name for one of the smilies on his forum, "Krudsome," (his name on the forums and his email address is "Krudman") is "Mah_face," a reference to the chair.

Comic 304 is called "Seriously" which is Homestar Runner's Cathcphrase
