The second-best selling Italian comic book, once the first during the "Dylan craze" of the early '90s. Created by Tiziano Sclavi and published by Sergio Bonelli since 1986, Dylan Dog is a Reference Overdosed series focusing on a former Scotland Yard detective now known as the "Nightmare Investigator", who lives on 7 Craven Road, London and fights monsters, demons and many more otherworldly creatures for £100 a day plus expenses, or solves cases about horrifying sociopathic criminals. The series (at least during its early years) managed to deconstruct horror clichés and to create an intriguing, flawed and sympathetic Anti-Hero in a morally complex world. Dylan Dog was also known for the surreal, poetic quality of its writing and its black humour.Because of a generally acknowledged rule, there was a Live-Action Adaptation called Dylan Dog Dead Of Night, starring Brandon Routh as the eponymous detective and co-starring Sam Huntington, Anita Briem, Peter Stormare, Taye Diggs and Kurt Angle (yes, that Kurt Angle). The storyline of the movie isn't an Adaptation Distillation of any story arc of the comic, but an entirely independent one instead. The film was poorly-received, and has been disowned by most fans of the comic.Interestingly enough, it can be said that Dylan Dog has already had a movie version, but for the name and some minor adjustments. Based upon a book written by Tiziano Sclavi (the character's creator) around one of the very first drafts of the series (before Bonelli mandated the change from an Italian setting and protagonist to an Anglo-Saxon one, as customary for the Milanese publisher, whose only Italian hero to date was the Swiss-based Napoleone) and played by the very actor upon whose likenesses D.D. was molded (Rupert Everett), DellaMorte DellAmore is a pretty clear expy. Placed on the outskirts of Milan, minus Groucho, but definitely a young D.D., complete with melancholy zombies and a rusty VW Beetle.In August 2018, Bonelli announced the foundation of a division dedicated to TV productions and that, after buying the rights back, they will produce an English-language Dylan Dog series under their direct scrutiny, with possibilities of cameos of characters from other series published by them to set up a possible Expanded Universe.

Comic-Book Fantasy Casting
 Dylan Dog (Comic Book) / int_11bc87bc
comment
Comic-Book Fantasy Casting: Dylan's appearance was inspired by actor Rupert Everett. Also, Kim is... well, Kim Novak. Plus, Professor Adam looks like an old Sean Connery. Some of the first stories featured characters that seemed to be based on Jack Nicholson, Bette Davis, Janet Leigh, Anthony Perkins and several others. And then there's Groucho. As a general rule, Sergio Bonelli Editore - the publishing house of Dylan Dog - tends to use this a lot. In reality, almost all of the main cast of every series they published is heavily based upon real actors (Alan Ladd for Tex Willer, Rupert Everett for Dylan Dog, Ralph Fiennes for Dampyr, Marlon Brando for Napoleone). Among the major series it publishes, only the protagonist of Nathan Never is not based on an actor... but his main sidekick used to be "Legs" Weaver.

comment
No Celebrities Were Harmed: Groucho, Dylan's sidekick. Quite obviously so. It's even the same name, even if it's known to be just an actor playing the part all the time (even when sleeping). And Dylan himself is modeled after Rupert Everett. The author Sclavi is famous for "borrowing". Inspector Bloch is based on Robert Bloch, the author.

Scenery Censor: Happens all the time (like in other Bonelli comics). Breasts (with *gasp* nipples!) and butts (female and male) are shown but the genitals still need to be covered with strategically placed items, pieces of furniture, or (during showers, baths and similar) implausibly high splashes of water... especially irritating since the rest of the water is often not splashing at all. Occasionally subverted, up to including Male Frontal Nudity, but it is mostly on either corpses or monsters.

Ripped from the Headlines: Happens a few times. In "Goblin" during Dylan's "The Reason You Suck" Speech he brings up real gruesome experiments/surgeries performed during animal testing, and apparently the backstory of "Johnny Freak" was also inspired by a real-life crime.

They Look Just Like Everyone Else!
 Dylan Dog (Comic Book) / int_19a5d773
comment
They Look Just Like Everyone Else!: Second only to the countless references, this trope is used often to further highlight the Humans Are the Real Monsters themes. To pick one example out of the bunch, the 'Invisible Man' serial killer is labeled as such due to how hard it is to discover his true identity because he blends too well into the crowd, almost as if he were invisible. Tellingly, the killer, Hiram Bailey, has to turn himself in to Dylan and Bloch when he overhears them at a pub. Bailey appears to be a melancholic, harmless middle aged man, but reveals to be a Straw Nihilist monster who killed those prostitutes for no real reason. On the other hand his copycats Mr. Coldwater and Johnny Dark are more Obviously Evil looking.

Breaking the Fourth Wall: Happens in some of Sclavi's surreal stories with meta aspects, and occasionally Groucho does this in some of his jokes. In "The Land of Colored Shadows" Pink Rabbit even tells Dylan they don't have time for explanations since they're at page 93, looking down at the bottom of the page.

Deal with the Devil
 Dylan Dog (Comic Book) / int_1fc8335e
comment
Deal with the Devil: The story "Baba Yaga" is centered about two such deals made by the same person. Said person was terminally ill and stole from a gangster so his family could live well after he died, and the gangster in retaliation killed his family after he told him why he had done so. To have his revenge, the man sold his soul to the devil so the gangster and his men would die before him... And then the devil tells him he'll kill them right before he dies, so he won't be able to see them dying and enjoy his revenge. Furious, the man makes another deal, offering his soul to Baba Yaga in exchange for their death. Yaga delivers immediately... And the devil shows up because the man had sold the soul to him first, and refuses to let him die (and thus let Yaga claim his soul) until he can take said soul. Apparently making deals with the devil is a fairly common practice in the entertainment world. An agent who is actually a devil hires Dylan to discover who has been taking his clients' souls while they're still alive, thereby also robbing them of their talent.

Knight in Sour Armor: Inspector Bloch. He works through any gruesome case despite his sensitivity towards the sight of blood and gore in the name of justice and order, often shares Dylan's existential dissatisfactions and constantly fears that his violations of the law when helping Dylan will end up costing him his pension. Thankfully, while he won't be free from some new paranormal encounters, he eventually makes it to his retirement.

Beauty Equals Goodness: While Dylan is a handsome man who ends up sleeping with attractive women and girls, the comic regularly drops a nuke on this trope, usually with the Bitch in Sheep's Clothing clients that fuel the recurring Humans Are the Real Monsters themes of the series. A more on-the-nose example of this is in Issue #82 "Away from the Light", with the gorgeous Rebecca Pleasance turning out to be a cruel, unfaithful consort and opening fire on the deformed people that live in Samhain's cave.

Evil Has a Bad Sense of Humor: In one story, Groucho is repeatedly trying to tell a joke about three men about to be executed (the guillotine blade keeps stopping just above their necks, so the first two are pardoned due to an Act of God, but the third man announces that he's figured out where the fault is) to a nice old lady who is an unwitting friend and companion of the evil witch, but is constantly interrupted before he can get to the punchline. After the witch is defeated, they later sit down for some tea, and Groucho finishes the joke. She doesn't get it. And then she decides to kill them all, monstering out and revealing herself to be considerably more powerful than her late friend despite acting like a dimwitted old granny the whole time.

Terror at Make-Out Point
 Dylan Dog (Comic Book) / int_3661df5c
comment
Terror at Make-Out Point: Happens often since this comic uses and deconstructs all horror tropes, but "Golconda!" offers a unique twist to it when two teenagers making out in the woods get killed by a giant tentacular eye, and more surreal events take place from that moment on. In the end it's explained that the place where the two teens went was a spot of unexplored land, where no human ever set foot in history, and by doing so while making love they opened a breach that allowed some "Elemental Sprites" (the eye, the men with bowler hats, etc.) to come out and wreak havoc, thus Dylan and the Girl of the Week seal it by having sex in that spot.

Death is Cheap: In Dylan's universe, dying isn't a big problem. Hell, even Dylan has already died several times, but it's a bit more justified because Death usually explains to him that his time to die hasn't come yet.

It's later revealed that she was born dead, but then got hit by falling antimatter that granted her "anti-life", bringing her to life at the cost of being a Doom Magnet. It doesn't end well for her.

Broken Aesop: In "Johnny Freak" Dylan gets defensive towards Johnny whenever people refer to him as a "freak" and even told him on his deathbed that he is not a freak... and yet, later issues reveal that he has been buried in a Freaks Cemetery, made worse by the fact that the only real handicap Johnny had was being born deaf mute. The series insisted that physical beauty does not count, and yet Dylan kept bedding only young, gorgeous chicks. Realizing the problem, the writers finally had Dylan sleeping with a much older, ugly, overweight woman.

Guilt Complex: Dylan blames himself for not having been able to help some clients and friends deal with either the Monster of the Week or their personal troubles, even when he couldn't possibly have done anything more or differently. He also reveals that he feels bad about killing monsters and violent criminals even if it's the only way to stop them. Sometimes this complex reaches truly illogical levels, such as when he thinks that his arriving late to a date was responsible for the girl ending up in an Awful Wedded Life with another man.

Zombie Apocalypse: Xabaras has developed a serum that turns people into zombies. It also happens in the confusing story where Morgana is introduced. And the story "Orrore Nero" (Black Horror) features The Mafia using a Zombie-like serum to fake their deaths. Also happens in a What If? series of stories set around 15-20 years into the future, where entire zones of London are surrounded by walls and patrolled by the army to keep zombies out. Dylan is middle-aged and much sourer than his past self, probably because Groucho was the Patient Zero and Dylan couldn't bring himself to kill his friend. Groucho escaped and spread The Virus.

comment
Improperly Placed Firearms: Dylan owns an antique Bodeo Model 1889-and not in Italy, where it could be relatively common due having been a service pistol for over fifty years, but in Britain. Often Lampshaded by people who can recognize it, who wonder why he uses one (he can't afford a more modern gun), where does he find the ammunition (he knows a guy who handloads it just for him), or where did he find one (it was in a cave. How it ended there remains a mystery). A special story set in Victorian London has Dylan still armed with the Bodeo, then state-of-the-art. Upon reveal he's immediately asked why did he go all the way to Italy to buy a gun, and it's considered rare and expensive enough that when he loses it in the sea the Lloyds, with whom Dylan had insured it, recover it from the bottom of the sea rather than refund him.

Amusing Injuries: Deconstructed. Pink Rabbit is a toon that came to the real world. Carnage ensued, since his amusing slapstick violence actually killed people, although but he wasn't aware of things such as permanent injuries and death. It was actually kinda creepy.

Woobie, Destroyer of Worlds: Multiple "monsters" Dylan deals with in the stories turn out to be this. The murderer of issue #21 "Cursed Day" turns out to be a grief-stricken young man who wanted his revenge on the rich people that accidentally caused his girlfriend's death, who got hit by a bottle they tossed out of their plane. It makes the surprise The Bad Guy Wins ending a bit less unfortunate. The title character of issue #45 "Goblin" is revealed to be a vengeful monkey that escaped from a vivisection laboratory and hunted down those involved with the butchering of their mate. In issue #76 "Black Malediction" Jamais Nonplus is a vengeful Scary Black Man voodoo master who is enraged by the death of his young son, who got run over by a reckless driver or so we initially believe, when it turns out that the guy decided to take the blame out of love for his Bitch in Sheep's Clothing wife, who actually ran over the kid because she was drunk.

A story also established that Dellamorte exists in Dylan's universe.

Artistic License – Law: Dylan once said that Lillie Connolly was sentenced to death for terrorism. This would have happened in the late 70s/early 80s, when the death penalty had long been abolished in the UK.It's possible that Lillie being sentenced to death was an alcohol-induced hallucination for Dylan, but in that case he should have realized that long before telling the story.

"Pop!" Goes the Human: In "Cursed Day" one of the victims gets inflated with a helium tank, floating up like a balloon until he bursts into a bloody mess. In "Golconda!" the Man with the Bowler robs a bank using his powers to kill all the people present in horrifying ways, ending the killing spree by puffing up the bank's director ala Aunt Marge until he explodes. In "Marty" this trope is combined with Die Laughing for the demise of Marty's Bad Boss.

He's also collaborating with Bloch and Groucho for an unknown goal (that for some reason involves getting Dylan married).

My Skull Runneth Over: In "The Sleep of Reason", a scientist is looking for a way to unlock the full potential of the human intellect, but all of his test subjects die in predictably gruesome ways. It turns out that an adult's intellect is "atrophied" after a life of underuse, and only babies are flexible enough to survive the process. When the scientist, mentally unbalanced after years of frustrations, experiments on his newborn daughter, it finally works even too well.

Our Vampires Are Different
 Dylan Dog (Comic Book) / int_9f63d4f1
comment
Our Vampires Are Different: So far there have been at least four different kinds of vampires: human-sized bats who use glamour to blend in, vampires with a corpse-like face who use rubber masks to maintain The Masquerade, vampires that look human in person but hideous in a mirror and others who show a Game Face when hungry or threatened but look normal otherwise. Due the Shared Universe with other Bonelli comics, it's implied these are different bloodlines. Apparently a person can also have a genetic predisposition to turn into a vampire after death (without having been bitten), and some people become feral after turning while others retain their intelligence and personality.

Dylan deduces he must be in the early 21st century... Then, not three panels later, he reads on a solar-powered clock it's August 4th, 2560.

comment
Meta Fiction: The issue "Caccia alle streghe" ("Witch Hunt") was about the comic book "Daryl Zed", which in-universe was drawn by Dylan's friend Justin Moss and whose main character was inspired by Dylan himself. Out of universe, "Daryl Zed" is a transparent expy of Dylan Dog (the series, not the character) and Tiziano Sclavi uses it as a commentary against Moral Guardians and politicians who spoke of horror comic books, splatter movies and such as corrupting the minds of young people. Such a thing was actually going on in Italy in those years and some publications were forced to close (though Dylan Dog itself was never actually targeted). Daryl Zed fights against inquisitors in the comic book we get to see, his comic book gets censored by Moral Guardians in-story and Sclavi not-so-subtly compares the two menaces. Roberto Recchioni seems to love this trope. The issue "Oggi Sposi" ("Just Married") has John Ghost comment on Dylan Dog's serial life and noting that everything happening to him (such as status quo being resetted every month) is happening because they're comic book characters. John Ghost even comments on a few events as being classical narrative tropes (such as Groucho's death being a classical example of Widowed at the Wedding). The whole point of the final story arc before the Soft Reboot. As has become a well known fact that the apparently doomed Dylan Dog universe lives on a Status Quo Is God rule, John Ghost manages to force a reboot by arranging for every single character to break the status quo until the end. When it does actually happen Dylan Dog itself becomes able to reach a limbo inhabited by Tiziano Sclavi, the antropomorphic incarnation of the ills and shortcoming fueling his creation of Dylan Dog himself and every idea about the characters, used and discarded. He's then able to kill Sclavi and ignite a full reboot of the universe with all the hoarded ideas.

Status Quo Is God: A constant. Even if the story ends with Dylan dying or the world ending, next month the Reset Button will be pushed. Seriously. Usually it is only a dream (Cagliostro's dream in two different episodes). Or some cosmic entity, namely Death, resets everything because "it's more interesting this way". Hell's Bureaucratic Department is good at hiding things, too. This rule is so hardwired that every single time a new character was permanently introducted, part of the Fanbase tried a They Changed It, Now It Sucks!. However, the Soft Reboot after the Evil Meteor Story Arc made a moot point out of that.

Classical Anti-Hero: Dylan is lazy, prone to mood swings and depression, anxious, full of phobias (he is afraid of flying, of ships, of heights, of bats, very afraid of closed spaces...) and not particularly brave, strong or sharp. As a bonus, several times he royally screws up his cases. Dylan is also this in the film, but in a different way; basically he's more stoic and withdrawn.

Jack the Ripoff: Issue #2, "Jack The Ripper" initially makes it seem like Jack has returned from the dead to kill again after being summoned through a Spooky Séance, but then the killer turns out to be a copycat, who's none other than the Girl of the Week. However, in the ending it appears that Jack briefly returns for real to kill her off. In a later story, "Memories from the Invisible World", that copycat is brought up when discussing about the Invisible Man killer who slays prostitutes, though in "Beyond Death" the trope is played straight with Johnny Dark being a direct copycat of the Invisible Man.

Be Careful What You Wish For
 Dylan Dog (Comic Book) / int_b06bbf4b
comment
Be Careful What You Wish For: Happens very often. A particularly sadistic example is Dust, a Fallen Angel who was sentenced to suffer by committing evil while being unable to understand it due his nature as an angel, searching for Ash, a devil kicked out of hell and sentenced to bring happiness by helping people have what they wish the most, so Ash will be forced by his own punishment to make him understand evil. It happens, and Dust goes instantly mad.

Celestial Bureaucracy: The comic presents the concept that there are multiple "Hells" in the afterlife (Real Life being strongly implied to be one of them, given how harsh and horrifying it can be) and it's literally organized like a trippy Vast Bureaucracy, especially the Hell that archives all the deaths that happen in London.

Also happens in a What If? series of stories set around 15-20 years into the future, where entire zones of London are surrounded by walls and patrolled by the army to keep zombies out. Dylan is middle-aged and much sourer than his past self, probably because Groucho was the Patient Zero and Dylan couldn't bring himself to kill his friend. Groucho escaped and spread The Virus.

The Pornomancer: Dylan Dog has an uncanny talent for getting in the bed of pretty much every female he meets. And we used "female" in place of "woman" because he had sex with at least one devil. And he doesn't even do that on purpose (hence why one of his suitors was actually the homicidal ghost of a witch).

Loud of War: Dylan Dog's clarinet rendition of the Devil Trill Sonata is treated as such, owing to it being a work for solo violin and Dylan being bad with the clarinet. During his stint in jail he drove the other prisoners to beg for him to be freed just so he'd stop playing it, and it's one of the things that have driven his neighbour to build a homemade cannon and point it at Dylan's apartment (and could well cause him to shoot it).

Enemy Without: An interesting variation where A deliberately forces B to become A's Enemy Within, so that A may physically interact with its own evil side. The disfigured villain initially wants to "commit suicide" by eliminating both his good-looking substitute and Dylan Dog, whom he forces to become his serial killer character "Joe Montero". He changes his mind and ends up using Montero to kill himself.

Shout-Out
 Dylan Dog (Comic Book) / int_c75df49a
comment
Shout-Out: Countless, that make the Kitchen Sink universe of this comic. Many of them are Easter Eggs that appear in a panel or two, so trying to list all of them would be a superhuman task. For example, the first issue makes multiple references to Ghostbusters (1984) (Sybil, Dylan's client, is even modeled after Sigourney Weaver), Dawn of the Dead (1978) and An American Werewolf in London. Dylan has a poster of The Rocky Horror Picture Show on the wall of his office. The series isn't shy from making Whole-Plot Reference stories based on films and other media, often doing combinations. Issue #12 "Killer!" is about a Golem that looks exactly like The Terminator and kills anyone surnamed "Hund". The rabbi who helps out Dylan and Groucho in the case is named Woodrow Allen Hund and he resembles him as well. Issue #30 "The Haunted House" is unsubtly a mixture between Poltergeist and The Shining. Issue #337 "Deep Space" likewise takes elements and visuals from Alien, Event Horizon and Solaris (1972). In the colored issues, Xabarax's zombie virus is usually depicted as a glowing green liquid, not too unlike Herbert West's serum from Re-Animator. The title of issue #7 "La Zona Del Crepuscolo" is a literal translation of The Twilight Zone (which is instead known in Italy as Ai confini della realtà, meaning "At the confines of reality"). The cover of "Cursed Day" references Nightmare At 20,000 Feet. Blade Runner is referenced on multiple occasions, the most blatant shout-out being in the climax of issue #9 "Alpha and Omega", where Roy Batty's final speech is quoted. The same issue also heavily references 2001: A Space Odyssey (the Discovery ship and Space Station V would later show up in issue #43 "Story of Nobody"). A fairly important recurring character is called Professor Wells. Stephen King and George A. Romero are favorite targets. In "Memories from the Invisible World" there's a "Nighthawks" Shot that also expands upon the couple seen in the painting. One of the horrors the aforementioned Banshee accidentally causes with her curse is bringing to life a murderous doll that resembles Chucky. Pink Rabbit is a Roger Rabbit expy; the follow-up story "The Land of Colored Shadows" is even more so with his toon dimension being more explored and for having a Jessica Rabbit expy in the form of Betty Bloom. The aforementioned Chess with Death story is a homage to The Seventh Seal. Furthermore, Harvey Burton and the other comatose patients being eerily suspended by wires is a reference to Coma. The aforementioned man who represents Gluttony and dies via explosive mint is a nod to Mr. Creosote from Monty Python's The Meaning of Life. The aforementioned species of bat-headed Vampires that blend among humans were influenced by the aliens from They Live!. The Man with the Bowler from issue #41 "Golconda!" references René Magritte's painting with the same title. In "Golconda!" Phillip Mortimer randomly shows up to get a Death by Cameo from fairies. In issue #84 "Zed" the temple of Moloch from Cabiria shows up. In "Zed" Dylan and the people trapped in Zed also deal with Morlocks from The Time Machine. One is displayed in the issue's cover art◊. Issue #15 "Channel 666" has a premise inspired by Videodrome, and opens with Howard Beale expressing a Straw Nihilist rant before killing himself on live TV. Furthermore his suicide via shooting himself in the mouth is based on Budd Dwyer's (which had happened earlier in 1987). In issue #50 "At the Confines of Time" Lord Wells is dressed up like a druid and has an Obelix-looking servant who is forbidden from tasting Wells' "potion" (that turns out to be a rather bad ancient soup recipe). Later, however, Druid!Wells makes Dylan and his clients drink a potion from a bubbling cauldron that protects them from the prehistoric presence that is haunting Mr. Carlucci's tower. Issue #140 "Towards a Far Away World" contains numerous references to Slaughterhouse-Five. The cover of issue #338 "Inspector Bloch, No More" is a nod to the cover of "Spider-Man: No More!"◊. The Hell's archive for London (which debuted in issue #46 "Hells") is modeled after the bureaucratic dystopia of Terry Gilliam's Brazil. Paola Barbato is fond of putting Alice Allusions in her stories, such as #212 "Necropolis" and especially in #279 "The Garden of Illusions" in which Dylan lampshades his predicament as 'Dylan Dog in Wonderland'. Issue #154 "Time's Beat" establishes that Neverland exists in Dylan Dog's universe and the story works as a Darker and Edgier follow-up to Peter Pan in which Dylan deals with Smee, Tinkerbell, Peter and the Lost Boys after they settled down on Earth. Despite the darkness, it does have a Surprisingly Happy Ending.

Flat-Earth Atheist: Dylan is strangely skeptical for someone who has faced all sorts of supernatural occurrences. However, he does it to make sure he isn't being made a fool of with a scheme meant to worsen his bad reputation, and also to respect his clients, being willing to turn down the gig if Dylan thinks that recruiting an Occult Detective is unnecessary. As he puts it in Issue #1, his method is to "consider all possible solutions until only the impossible remains". Sometimes Dylan pretends to be this to see how his clients react, if they give a believably worked up response at the accusation of lying, Dylan will buy into their story more.

Explosive Decompression: In issue #60 an astronaut in orbit gets his oxygen hose chopped, causing his face to puff up and his eyes to pop out of their sockets.

Whole-Plot Reference
 Dylan Dog (Comic Book) / int_e303d198
comment
The series isn't shy from making Whole-Plot Reference stories based on films and other media, often doing combinations. Issue #12 "Killer!" is about a Golem that looks exactly like The Terminator and kills anyone surnamed "Hund". The rabbi who helps out Dylan and Groucho in the case is named Woodrow Allen Hund and he resembles him as well. Issue #30 "The Haunted House" is unsubtly a mixture between Poltergeist and The Shining. Issue #337 "Deep Space" likewise takes elements and visuals from Alien, Event Horizon and Solaris (1972).

Mandatory Twist Ending: Almost all the stories written by author Claudio Chiaverotti - so much, in fact, that fans now commonly refer to this kind of finale as a "Chiaverotti ending".

Light Is Not Good: The best example of the series is the "Invisible Man" killer from issues #19 and #88, who wears a trench coat and fedora hat that are white.

O.O.C. Is Serious Business
 Dylan Dog (Comic Book) / int_e83f211c
comment
O.O.C. Is Serious Business: Twice in "Johnny Freak". Dylan downs a glass of alcohol upon learning that Johnny's physical mutilations (except the deafness) were explants of perfectly healthy organs; and when Johnny's real family takes him away, Groucho gets uncharacteristically sad. It happens again in "The Mirror of the Soul", when Dylan's laughter at Groucho's jokes creeps Groucho himself.

comment
Blue-and-Orange Morality: A lot of characters Dylan deals with have it. A noteworthy example is in the issue "Golconda!" with a Giant Eye, the Men with the Bowler and the fairies being described as merely "elemental sprites" and their horrifying, surreal killing sprees to be their way of playing.

Dramatic Gun Cock: Lampshaded and deconstructed in the film when Dylan tells his would-be killer that he cocked the gun too early, and that he should have waited to see if simply putting the gun in his face would be scary enough.

One-Steve Limit: Played with in the case of Dylan. Averted in his past, as not only his adoptive father and grandfather were named Dylan but this was also Xabaras' birth name. However in the present day the former two are dead and the latter has adopted a new identity, so the protagonist is the only "Dylan" in the comic.

The Lost Lenore
 Dylan Dog (Comic Book) / int_f0c4ce7d
comment
The Lost Lenore: Lillie Connolly fits this trope to a T. She was in the IRA, and her incarceration and subsequent death in prison lead Dylan to leave his job as a policeman and later become the detective of the occult he is today. She even seems to be back for an episode (it's actually a woman who specializes in impersonating men's dead love interests to manipulate them) and Dylan is then shown to still love her.

Well-Intentioned Extremist: Xabaras and John Ghost: Xabaras wants to find the secret of immortality for humanity's good and be reunited with his son, Dylan. Too bad he's murdering people left and right and seriously risks causing a Zombie Apocalypse in the process. John Ghost's ultimate goal is to save Earth and humanity, or at least Britain and its people, from complete annihilation. He's also an incredibly petty serial dog-kicker (renting out Gordon Ramsay's entire restaurant and ordering fish just to have it thrown away because he hates eating fish is just one example among many) and a mass murderer.

Depending on the Writer: Pink Rabbit. May be justified and enforced In-Universe: according to a fan theory, he was a psycho in "Pink Rabbits Kill" because the first drawing artist who summoned him was a crazy murderer, and he turned into a Toon who doesn't understand what "death" is in the sequel "The Land of Colored Shadows" because the second summoner was a nice guy.

Perpetual Poverty: Dylan and Groucho live in a low rent apartment and are rarely shown to have gained any material benefit from their work (which doesn't always end in success), but they still manage to and afford enough food, gas and other essentials.
