Strong Bad,<br /><br />
I think it's high time you composed a rock opera. You<br /><br />
simply owe it to society. What should it be about?<br /><br />
That's up to you.<br /><br />
Best Wishes,<br /><br />
Anonymous Contributor<br /><br />
Gambier, OH</blockquote><br />
<br />
''{Strong Bad pronounces the last two lines as "Anonymous Contrib-u-tore, Gombyay... ''hhhough''}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Ugh, poor guy. ''{typing}'' HEY! Mr. and Mrs. Contributor, way to name your kid! I can only imagine the taunts and jabs the kids on the playground musta come up with.<br />
<br />
''{A piece of notebook paper appears onscreen with Teen Girl Squad-esque drawings on it. On it are drawings of a swingset, Little Strong Bad, and Anonymous, who looks suspiciously like Strong Sad with a question mark for a face. Anonymous is kicking a soccer ball, and faint playground chatter is present in background}''<br />
<br />
'''NOTEBOOK STRONG BAD:''' Hey, Anonymous! Why don't ya, um, write a poem or something and not attribute it to yourself!<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Or, like...<br />
<br />
''{The paper switches out. This one features Anonymous with his hands glued to his butt, Strong Bad, and Tompkins, again with faint playground chatter.}''<br />
<br />
'''NOTEBOOK STRONG BAD:''' Yo, Anonny! Maybe try calling the cops and giving them some valuable information to help solve a crime without revealing your own identityiyiyiy!<br />
<br />
''{The paper disappears offscreen.}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{typing}'' Oh. Kids can be so cruel. ''{clears screen, resumes typing}'' OK, back on task. To tell you the truth, you guys have already heard mosta my rock opera. I've been composing it over the last three and a half years. It's simply titled "SBEMAIL!" ''{A poster for SBEMAIL! appears onscreen}'' And the lyrics consist of one word from each of my 125 emails! ''{The poster disappears}'' Now, it may not make a whole lotta sense but when have I ever backed down from a bad idea, right? Now let's get this train wreck a-rollin'!<br />
<br />

== Easter Eggs ==<br />
<br />
* At the end, click ''rave reviews'' to see some reviews of Sbemail:<br />
**"SBEMAIL! Is a Triumph <u>of</u> Some Sort!!!"<br/>"It will leave you wanting MORE, MORE, MORE!"<br/>-(Perhaps)The Deke<br />
**"A million stars!!!"<br/>-Age 7<br />
**"SBEMAIL! is better than a [[goat]]!!"<br/>- The Biscuitdoughhandsman Review<br />
<br />
* Click ''Pouring in'' to see a poster for SBEMAIL!<br />
:"an off<sup>13</sup> Broadway rock opera from the man who brought you 'Dangeresque: Put 'Em On Ice!'"<br />
*While on the poster, click '[[Dangeresque (film series)|Dangeresque]]: put em on ice' to see a clip of Dangeresque: Put 'Em On Ice!<br />
:''{Cut to somewhere in The Field in winter, with a small ice pond in the foreground. Strong Bad (as Dangeresque) skates in from the right}''<br />
:'''DANGERESQUE:''' So I'm gonna have to jum&mdash;<br />
:''{Dangeresque falls through the ice.}''<br />
:'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{offscreen}'' Meh! ''{throws a rose onto the ice, and a [[Wikipedia:Vibraslap|vibraslap]] hit can be heard}''<br />
* Click the ''Encore'' that appears on the bottom-right of the Lappy screen when you scroll your mouse over it to see the rock opera again.<br />
<br />
== Fun Facts ==<br />
<br />
=== Explanations ===<br />
*A [[Wikipedia:Rock opera|rock opera]] is, as the name implies, a sung dramatic work in a rock, instead of classical, musical style. The term originated with the programmatic works of [[Wikipedia:The Who|The Who]], in particular their rock opera ''[[Wikipedia:Tommy (rock opera)|Tommy]]''.<br />
*off<sup>13</sup> Broadway refers to [[Wikipedia:Off-Broadway|Off-Broadway]] and [[Wikipedia:Off-Off-Broadway|Off-Off-Broadway]], classifications of theatre size in New York theatre venues. Off-Broadway refers to theatres with audience sizes between 100 and 499, and Off-Off-Broadway refers to theatres with 100 seats or less. The concept behind them is that having a very small house allows for productions that are much more experimental and financially risky. However, Strong Bad's "off<sup>13</sup>" means that his musical is off-off-off-off-off-off-off-off-off-off-off-off-off broadway, or the word 'off' multiplied by itself thirteen times.<br />
<br />
=== Trivia ===<br />
*This is the first email where all twelve main characters appear in person. (The Poopsmith and Pom Pom were only on playing cards in [[your friends]] and [[different town]], respectively.)<br />
*Each quotation is truly taken from each email, in order. The first word is from [[some kinda robot]], the second from [[homsar]], and [[Rock Opera Context|so forth]].<br />
*The label on the disk in the floppy disk container reads "[[Floppy Disk Container#colorado|colorado]]".<br />
*The same strobe lights from [[techno]] are seen during the "Positate without pizzaz and jam" section of the song. However, both lights in this email are different colors from the lights in techno.<br />
*The song that plays during the "Whatever action baby actually went jibblie. Oooh! Oh. Party like completely great, good. Down town ladies get consummate." part is similar to the song "One" from the musical "[[Wikipedia:A Chorus Line|A Chorus Line]]".<br />
<br />
=== Remarks ===<br />
*The email rap and the flipside version are clips of Strong Bad saying the same thing, but they are different versions of it. If you reverse the clip, the most obvious difference is that the flipside version doesn't have a pause after the word "email".<br />
*Even though in [[sb_email 22]], Strong Bad types "nevermind", and it is used the same way in this email, never mind is actually two words.<br />
*The word ''crackin''' isn't actually heard in [[fingers]], and though it likely was recorded, the audio layer is turned down or the narrator is completely overpowering Strong Bad's voice.<br />
*The Poopsmith, Bubs, and Pom Pom all remain motionless when the cast yells "SBEMAIL!", though it may be that the Poopsmith is silent on purpose, courtesy of his vow of silence.<br />
*Strong Bad ''did'' back down from a bad idea in [[other days]], when he decided not to speak the entire email as a robot.<br />
*When Dangeresque falls through the ice, the hole is smaller than his head.<br />
*Strong Bad technically asked The Cheat to throw another rose at him. "Ixnay" in [[Wikipedia:Pig Latin|Pig Latin]] translates to "nix", meaning "cut it out" or "stop". Therefore, the whole phrase constituted a [[Wikipedia:double negative|double negative]] meaning "continue throwing roses at me."<br />
*In the scene with the four flying V's (two red, two white), the white guitars have no strings.<br />
<br />
=== Goofs ===<br />
[[Image:Trevorthevampire versus rockopera.PNG|thumb|300px|Everybody wanna scam some wrestleman's eyes...]]<br />
[[Image:Strong Mad Mouth.png|thumb|AaAaAaAh taped his mouth to my torso!]]<br />
*You can still click the contrast buttons on the [[Tandy 400|Tandy]] while the opera is playing, although it doesn't actually affect the contrast of the screen.<br />
*When roses are being thrown with the Lappy in the background, you can't see the reflection of the roses on the Lappy's screen.<br />
*In [[trevor the vampire]], when Strong Bad goes up to the screen and says "Hi, everybody," his eyes were given the newer style. However, in the opera, the same scene was shown, but his eyes were still the old style.<br />
**In addition, in several other clips, Strong Bad is animated using the current style of animation, (where Strong Bad's head, rather than his mouth, moves), yet his old eyes are still used.<br />
*When the scene from [[credit card]] is shown, the "John, and some other people who aren't scam artists" signature is missing, which is ironic since "scam" is the word used in the rock opera.<br />
*When Strong Bad says "Tonight" (in "Tonight equals dancing, yeah!"), a bit of the sound is cut off.<br />
*When The Cheat throws a rose in Strong Bad's face, it hits his left eye. However, when Strong Bad starts freaking out about it, the rose is on his right eye.<br />
*When the cast yells "SBEMAIL!" Strong Mad's mouth appears on Homsar's torso for a few seconds.<br />
**Though not noticeable without zooming in, once everyone has finished yelling "SBEMAIL!", Homsar's lip comes between Homestar's head and shirt; more specifically, in front of the head, and behind the shirt.<br />
*When the word "metal" zooms out toward the screen passing in front of Strong Bad, his mouth appears on top of the word instead of behind it.<br />
*In the Dangeresque on ice scene, when Strong Bad falls through the ice, the splash is in front of the ice.<br />
<br />
=== Inside References ===<br />
*The shoes that walk across the screen are the back button of [[Old Flash Stuff]].<br />
**The shoes were also used as a back button in [[She Loves Me!]].<br />
*On the second making-fun-of-Anonymous piece-of-paper, Anonymous has his hands glued to his butt, which also happened to Strong Sad in the e-mail [[1 step ahead]].<br />
*Strong Sad also gave an "anonymous tip" in [[Strong Bad is in Jail Cartoon]].<br />
*Also on the second piece-of-paper, Strong Bad's legs are positioned like those of [[Wrestleman]] from the weekly [[Sketchbook 2005#SK-2005-01-27|Sketchbook]].<br />
*When Strong Bad's typing starts going awry as The Cheat is throwing roses at him, he types "the chicks" as "teh chekts", a reference to the immediately preceding Strong Bad email [[secret recipes]].<br />
*When Strong Bad appears to have two electric guitars sticking out of his head, it is a reference to the cover art for the CD [[Strong Bad Sings and Other Type Hits]].<br />
*Strong Bad sitting in the chair swirling the wine in the cup is modeled after a similar scene from [[Everybody to the Limit]].<br />
**Strong Bad also swirls his wine in [[montage]].<br />
**The background behind him in this scene is from [[dangeresque 3]].<br />
*The action figures of Strong Sad and Strong Bad are from the Strong Bad Email [[action figure]].<br />
*The background of the area with the pyramid of gold bars (pre-explosion) is taken directly from [[RhinoFeeder]].<br />
*The "Goodtime Palace" is modeled after similar scenes from [[animal]] and even features Baby Styles.<br />
**Also, the normal "black frame" around the screen changes to The Cheat's poorly-drawn frame from his "[[Powered by The Cheat]]" cartoons.<br />
*The picture of the "Hardest Guitar Chord Ever" comes from [[privileges]].<br />
*[[Club Technochocolate]] is originally from [[extra plug]].<br />
** The word "technochocolate" itself comes from [[monument]].<br />
*The rock music which starts at Club Technochocolate uses the same chord progression as ''The Cheat Is Not Dead'' from [[caper]].<br />
*The stage the entire cast is grouped on at the end is seen in [[A Decemberween Pageant]], among other holiday toons.<br />
*The "biscuitdoughhandsman review" in the Easter egg is yet another reference to everyone's favorite unapprehended villain, [[Biscuitdoughhandsman]].<br />
*"[[The Deke]]" is originally from [[autobiography]].<br />
*Strong Bad's dance move with Baby Styles is a reference to [[virus]] when he compliments Bubs for being a computer genius man.<br />
*"Sbemail" is a reference to the filename of every Strong Bad e-mail. Strong Bad also refers to this in [[unused emails]] and [[kids' book]].<br />
*The email song is an example of [[reversed dialogue]].<br />
*The guitars featured in the email are the same as in the Easter egg in the email [[new hands]].<br />
*The pixellated Strong Bad with the pink hoodie is a reference to an Easter egg in the Strong Bad email [[montage]].<br />
*During the rock opera, Strong Bad briefly is seen using a [[disconnected telephone]].<br />
*"NO FOR RENT" is a reference to a response from the [[Jhonka]] in [[Peasant's Quest]].<br />
*The Easter egg newspaper review from a 7-year-old is from when Puppet Strong Bad appeared on G4's "Attack of the Show!" answering phone calls and asked a caller he was talking to if he was 7 years old, due to the tone and sound of his voice.<br />
*The Contributor family name has its [[-or pronounced with a long O]].<br />
*The rock opera mentions [[toilets]], [[pizza]], [[pants]], and the [[jibblies]].<br />
<br />
=== Real-World References ===<br />
*Strong Bad's "&iexcl;&Aacute;ndale! &iexcl;&Aacute;ndale! &iexcl;Arriba! &iexcl;Arriba!" at the end is quoting the famous Warner Bros. cartoon mouse [[Wikipedia:Speedy Gonzales|Speedy Gonzales]].<br />
*The electric guitars in the opera are (or are modeled after) the Gibson V-Factor, more commonly known as "[[Gibson Flying V|Flying V]]".<br />
*The amps are modeled after Marshall stacks, but instead of "Marshall," the logo reads "An Amp". These were also used in [[different town]] and [[Cool Things]], but labeled "Marzipan".<br />
*Strong Bad's song at the beginning of the e-mail may be a reference to Missy Elliott's [[wikipedia:Work It|Work It]], where she says "I put my thang down, flip it, and reverse it!" which is then played backwards.<br />
*Strong Bad walking toward the camera while neon signs fly by is also a commonly used movie clich&eacute; when the main-character gets overwhelmed by the nightlife of the city (most famously in the 1945 film ''[[Wikipedia:The Lost Weekend|The Lost Weekend]]'').<br />
<!-- It's true that Strong Bad's sprite in the jumpsuit is from Punch Out!, but it's more directly from montage! Since montage mentions Punch Out!, and since this page mentions montage, there's really not any reason to mention Punch Out! here. --><br />
<br />
=== Fast Forward ===<br />
*A [[Rock Opera (karaoke)|karaoke]] video was released for the Rock Opera on the [[strongbad_email.exe Disc Four|Strong Bad Email DVD]].<br />
*The "guitar stars" were re-used in [[Summer Short Shorts]].<br />
*A more realistic gold bar pile (seen in 'double the real gold') is seen in [[space program]].<br />
*Another "train wreck" would be created in the DVD Exclusive video [[160 Seconds]], which combines one second from each of the first 160 Emails.<br />
<br />
==DVD Version==<br />
*The DVD version features hidden creators' commentary. To access it, switch your DVD player's audio language selection while watching.<br />

'''STRONG BAD:''' This is By-The-Book Mike, over here, this guy—<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' We have—we've gotta do things by the rules.<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Okay, since—<br />

'''MIKE:''' ''{simultaneously}'' It's not gonna work, it's not gonna work if we don't—<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Look, we're not going to make a very good cop team, alright, 'cause ''I'' don't play by the rules, ''Mike.''<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Uh, did you do these drawings?<br />

<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' They're great drawings! Look at little Tompkins.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Tomp—<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' He's laughing at Strong Sad. ''{in high voice}'' "Put his hands on his butt again, they got glued there."<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Okay, don't—don't get up to high voices.<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{still in high voice}'' I'm in a high voice now!<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' I don't like the high voice realm.<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{still in high voice}'' It is my best voice!<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Oh, so which email is this we're doing here?<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' This is the one where I do my rock opera!<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Oh, rock opera. So this was—<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' It's a retrospective.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' This was, uh, so were you really planning this from day one?<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Of course, Mike.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' So you—<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Everything on this website has been planned since day one.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Oh, reall—<br />

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{simultaneously}'' I guarantee it.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Yeah.<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Hey, that's true, Mike. Like, I'm gonna put this b—lightbulb in my mouth!<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' ''{laughs}'' That's a coffee cup, Strong Bad.<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{hushed}'' Don't tell them, ''{returns to normal volume}'' look! ''{Mike laughs}'' That was just for the sound effect—<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' By the books! That didn't even sound like a lightbulb.<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''By the books.'' Pants—those are some—<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Nice burlap pants! ''{laughs}''<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' He was wearing a burlap sack for pants.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' I hear you had to, uhh—<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh, look, I was singing that song from American Tail. ''{Mike laughs}'' It was like "Somewheres... out there..." Ooh, that's a new way to look at me.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' That is—<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{simultaneously}'' From the front side!<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' The front view walk clip.<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' I'm doin' a front side air... over there.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' We've never used that again.<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Nope. ''{imitates self in email}'' Matic, matic. Ooh, this, this, who's playin' this guitar? 'Cause this music, I didn't even do. It showed up on my doorstep.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Euhh, I made some of it.<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Matt and I made it.<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' That's the hardest chord ever, right?<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' That was the hardest chord ever, played by Gary Palaroncini—there's two of the Palaroncinis right there.<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Wow, everybody's got metal hair, in this—<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Everybody's—<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' —video.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' —gettin' in on the action. <br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' The Cheat helped me out with a lot of this. <br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Yeah, it looks like it.<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{simultaneously}'' Visuals.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' You can—you can tell.<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' I for—I think I was calling... all cars.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' What do you call—what's that girl's name?<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh, that's Cynthentia.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' Cyn—''{laughs}'' Cynthentia.<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' What I heard.<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' ''{simultaneously}'' How, uh, have you talked to her lately?<br />

'''MIKE:''' Cynthentia.<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{simultaneously}'' "Experience dance tonight."<br />
<br />
'''MIKE:''' What famous ladies like SBEMAIL—<br />
<br />
'''STRONG BAD:''' Uh—<br />
<br />

<div>[[File:HSR Xeriouxly Forxe.png|thumb|250px|"Revamped for the nineties!"]]<br />
On [[April Fools' Day]] 2010, [[The Brothers Chaps]] revamped the main characters for the nineties with bold new looks, pointy elbows, and an [[TVTropes:DarkerAndEdgier|edgier style]] that nobody asked for! The result is the [[Xeriouxly Forxe]]! All of the retooled designs (except Homsar) feature sharp angles, exaggerated shading, black borders, severe expressions, and action poses.<br />

! Image !! Variation !! Description<br />
|- id="H. Star"<br />
| [[Image:Xerioux H Star.png|150px|"Xeriouxly Forxe... did I say that right?"]] || [[Homestar Runner|H. Star]] || H. Star now has [[Lack of Visible Arms|visible]] [[Wikipedia:Doctor Octopus|Doctor Octopus]]-style mechanical arms (although with pointy elbows). His hat is gone, revealing hair-like spikes on the top of his head. He now has a deeper, angrier voice.<br />
|- id="S. Bad"<br />
| [[Image:Xerioux S Bad.png|150px|"Xhut up! Juxt xay your linex!"]] || [[Strong Bad|S. Bad]] || The black on S. Bad's mask is now [[Batman]]'s symbol, and his mouth has gone from flesh-colored to a toothy grimmace. He also now has visible pecs. His voice is also slightly different, and he attempts to pronounce all sibilant consonants as X's.<br />
|- id="Pom"<br />
| [[Image:Xerioux Pom.png|150px]] || [[Pom Pom|Pom]] || Pom's feet now have a yellow point, and he carries ammunition and a jetpack.<br />
|- id="M.Z. Pan"<br />
| [[Image:Xerioux M Z Pan.png|150px]] || [[Marzipan|M.Z. Pan]] || M. Z. Pan's dress resembles the tentacles of a squid or octopus, and her neck is bent. Additionally, her hair has gone from a ponytail to more free-flowing.<br />
|- id="Zoach C"<br />
| [[Image:Xerioux Zoach C.png|150px]] || [[Coach Z|Zoach C]] || Zoach C's Z is now larger, and is applied directly to his body instead of contained in an emblem. His feet and [[Lack of Visible Body Parts|face]] are much more detailed, most notably giving him a visible mouth. The colors on his hat are reversed from normal.<br />
|- id="The Smith"<br />
| [[Image:Xerioux The Smith.png|150px]] || [[The Poopsmith|The Smith]] || The Smith is more dinosaur-like, and his shovel has become a battle axe (though it still has [[whatsit]] on it). He has also gained an extra finger. His lips are straighter. The whatsit stains have been removed from his gloves.<br />
|- id="S. Sad"<br />
| [[Image:Xerioux S Sad.png|150px|"I'm MAD that I'm flying!"]] || [[Strong Sad|S. Sad]] || S. Sad is even more like an elephant than usual, with ears, tusks, and a trunk. His [[soolnds]] now have another toe. He speaks with a gruff voice.<br />
|- id="Ch8t"<br />
| [[Image:Xerioux Ch8t.png|150px]] || [[The Cheat|Ch8t]] || Ch8t retains his familiar gold tooth and spots but has angry eyes, wild hair, and, like the [[Cheatball]], [[Lack of Visible Arms | no visible limbs]].<br />
|- id="S. Mad"<br />
| [[Image:Xerioux S Mad.png|150px]] || [[Strong Mad|S. Mad]] || S. Mad's arms and legs now are more distinct, and his mouth has more dimension. His singlet, however, is missing his trademark "M". <br />
|- id="Bubz"<br />
| [[Image:Xerioux Bubz.png|150px]] || [[Bubs|Bubz]] || Bubz's eyes are yellow and angry and, like nearly everyone else, he is more angular, but otherwise his appearance is largely unchanged.<br />
|- id="Xing Town"<br />
| [[Image:Xerioux Xing Town.png|150px]] || [[The King of Town|Xing Town]] || Xing Town resembles a vampire or bat with hands and large, flowing robe, and has gained a visible mouth. His crown is much smaller and narrower.<br />
|- id="Still Homsar"<br />
| [[Image:Xerioux Still Homsar.png|150px]] || [[Homsar|Still Homsar]] || Homsar, being the oddball that he is, is unchanged. He is the only character to retain colored outlines. <br />
|- id="Marxie"<br />
| [[Image:Marxie.PNG|150px|"Speed increased!"]] || [[Marshie|Marxie]] || Marxie is metallic, with an angry expression, a dome-covered [[brain]] where the "bite" normally is, and a large metal spike opposite that. Unlike all the others, he appears only in [[Main Page 26]].<br />
|- id="The Xtick"<br />
| [[Image:The Xtick.PNG|110px]] || [[The Xtick]] (name unknown) || The Xerioux version of [[The Stick]] is a purple, white, yellow, and pink crystal<!--not a sword--> jutting out of the ground. There are only three places for the different colors, so there is always one color disappearing to give way to another. It appeared on [[Main Page 26]] by rolling over Store, but nowhere else.<br />

<div>[[File:HSR Xeriouxly Forxe.png|thumb|250px|"Revamped for the nineties!"]]<br />
On [[April Fools' Day]] 2010, [[The Brothers Chaps]] revamped the main characters for the nineties with bold new looks, pointy elbows, and an [[TVTropes:DarkerAndEdgier|edgier style]] that nobody asked for! The result is the [[Xeriouxly Forxe]]! All of the retooled designs (except Homsar) feature sharp angles, exaggerated shading, black borders, severe expressions, and action poses.<br />

! Image !! Variation !! Description<br />
|- id="H. Star"<br />
| [[Image:Xerioux H Star.png|150px|"Xeriouxly Forxe... did I say that right?"]] || [[Homestar Runner|H. Star]] || H. Star now has [[Lack of Visible Arms|visible]] [[Wikipedia:Doctor Octopus|Doctor Octopus]]-style mechanical arms (although with pointy elbows). His hat is gone, revealing hair-like spikes on the top of his head. He now has a deeper, angrier voice.<br />
|- id="S. Bad"<br />
| [[Image:Xerioux S Bad.png|150px|"Xhut up! Juxt xay your linex!"]] || [[Strong Bad|S. Bad]] || The black on S. Bad's mask is now [[Batman]]'s symbol, and his mouth has gone from flesh-colored to a toothy grimmace. He also now has visible pecs. His voice is also slightly different, and he attempts to pronounce all sibilant consonants as X's.<br />
|- id="Pom"<br />
| [[Image:Xerioux Pom.png|150px]] || [[Pom Pom|Pom]] || Pom's feet now have a yellow point, and he carries ammunition and a jetpack.<br />

|- id="Zoach C"<br />
| [[Image:Xerioux Zoach C.png|150px]] || [[Coach Z|Zoach C]] || Zoach C's Z is now larger, and is applied directly to his body instead of contained in an emblem. His feet and [[Lack of Visible Body Parts|face]] are much more detailed, most notably giving him a visible mouth. The colors on his hat are reversed from normal.<br />
|- id="The Smith"<br />
| [[Image:Xerioux The Smith.png|150px]] || [[The Poopsmith|The Smith]] || The Smith is more dinosaur-like, and his shovel has become a battle axe (though it still has [[whatsit]] on it). He has also gained an extra finger. His lips are straighter. The whatsit stains have been removed from his gloves.<br />
|- id="S. Sad"<br />
| [[Image:Xerioux S Sad.png|150px|"I'm MAD that I'm flying!"]] || [[Strong Sad|S. Sad]] || S. Sad is even more like an elephant than usual, with ears, tusks, and a trunk. His [[soolnds]] now have another toe. He speaks with a gruff voice.<br />
|- id="Ch8t"<br />
| [[Image:Xerioux Ch8t.png|150px]] || [[The Cheat|Ch8t]] || Ch8t retains his familiar gold tooth and spots but has angry eyes, wild hair, and, like the [[Cheatball]], [[Lack of Visible Arms | no visible limbs]].<br />
|- id="S. Mad"<br />
| [[Image:Xerioux S Mad.png|150px]] || [[Strong Mad|S. Mad]] || S. Mad's arms and legs now are more distinct, and his mouth has more dimension. His singlet, however, is missing his trademark "M". <br />
|- id="Bubz"<br />
| [[Image:Xerioux Bubz.png|150px]] || [[Bubs|Bubz]] || Bubz's eyes are yellow and angry and, like nearly everyone else, he is more angular, but otherwise his appearance is largely unchanged.<br />

|- id="Still Homsar"<br />
| [[Image:Xerioux Still Homsar.png|150px]] || [[Homsar|Still Homsar]] || Homsar, being the oddball that he is, is unchanged. He is the only character to retain colored outlines. <br />
