Monica's Gang (Comic Book)	comment	Monica's Gang, also known as Monica and Friends (originally titled Turma da MÃ´nica) is a hugely popular Brazilian comic book series that has been running since the 1960s. It was created by Brazilian cartoonist Mauricio de Sousa.The series has countless comic books, strips and almanacs, and is divided in several branches. The main one features four main 7-year-old kids and takes place in SÃ£o Paulo: Monica/MÃ´nica (1963-present): Main character and self-appointed leader of the gang. She started out making appearances in Jimmy Five's strips, but ended up getting the spotlight soon afterwards. Her most noticeable traits are her prominent front teeth, her Super-Strength and her red dress (her wardrobe's full of these). Thanks to her short temper, calling her pudgy, bucktooth, shrimp or any combination thereof is a sure-fire way to get her to beat you up with her blue plush bunny. Jimmy Five/Cebolinha (1960-present): He used to be the main character of his own comic strips, but ended up losing the spotlight to Monica soon after. Jimmy is a creative boy who envisions countless "infallible plans" to get Monica's stuffed bunny and take over the block. He has only five single strands of hair, which is unusual for a kid his age; and when speaking, he swaps the 'r' for 'l' (or 'w', depending on the version you're reading). He is the only protagonist, and one of the very few kids oversall, who wears shoes. Smudge/CascÃ£o (1961-present): Jimmy Five's best friend. A pigpen at heart, he absolutely hates water and never has any contact with it (save for drinking it). A very skilled soccer player. Maggy/Magali (1964-present): Monica's best friend, always wearing a yellow dress, and basically the poster girl to the Big Eater trope; she loves to eat, particularly watermelons, but never gains any weight at all. She also tends to be rather girly sometimes.The other groups created by MaurÃcio include: Chuck Billy 'n' Folks/Turma do Chico Bento: A Brazilian child hillbilly's life. Horacio's World/Turma do HorÃ¡cio: A vegetarian T. rex who muses about life. Bug-a-Booo/Turma do Penadinho: A ghost and his monster friends. They like to scare people, but usually fail miserably. The Cavern Clan/Turma do Piteco: A caveman dealing with his prehistorical life. Tina's Pals/Turma da Tina: A teenager and her friends, which include her blue-haired best friend, her chubby best female friend and said friend's lazy boyfriend. The Tribe/Turma do Papa-Capim: A group of Brazilian Indians. The Funnies/Turma do Astronauta: A Brazilian astronaut's journey through the cosmos. Frequently stumbles by classic sci-fi characters (a story had him taking his spaceship to the shop; Kirk and Spock, Darth Vader, E.T. and the crew from Lost in Space were all there awaiting service on their ships as well), and it can be sometimes adventurous, sometimes philosophical (in fact, the first graphic novel of the Graphic MSP seal, which deals with Mauricio's characters as seen by other prominent Brazilian comics artists, stars Bubbly in a study on loneliness). Lionel's Kingdom/Turma da Mata: A group of jungle animals. The English title has the name of the ruler of said jungle (a lion, of course), but the main character is the elephant Thunder (JotalhÃ£o), originally created as the mascot of a tomato sauce (which had a realistic elephant on its cans, but eventually changed to Thunder).A general rundown on the franchise for English speakers can be found here. The English dub of the series on the Monica Plus YouTube channel can be found here, and the official English channel can be found here.In 2019, the franchise got its first Live-Action installment with the theatrical film Turma da MÃ´nica: LaÃ§os (Monica's Gang: Bonds), based on the official graphic novel of the same name. It got a sequel in 2021 called Turma da MÃ´nica: LiÃ§Ãµes (Monica's Gang: Lessons), also based on an eponymous graphic novel, and in 2022, an original series for Globoplay with the same cast.

Despite only appearing in this one storyline, the alien is portrayed as a thoroughly sinister villain that poses a serious threat to Earth, sharply contrasting the franchise's other antagonists, who are Laughably Evil at worst.

At the end of the story, this turns out to be a subversion. The dungeon was only built to protect Carmem's prized flowers from harm, and she genuinely loves Sunny's father.

Though the gang manages to destroy the robots, Captain Fray takes advantage of the heroes' distraction to take over the city. Subverted with the revelation that the Captain Fray seen in this story is actually Nutty Ned in disguise, who orchestrated a Crisis Crossover just to reunite characters from across The 'Verse for his birthday party.

Monica's Gang (Comic Book) / int_18a84025	comment	Only Six Faces: Lampshaded. The series often jokes about this with characters commenting about "how they can't tell each other apart when they're bald because everyone looks alike". Most of the child characters have the same facial features (the only tell-tale difference being nose shapes aside from other facial nuances - like the dirt strokes on Smudge's cheeks) and the differences between their body types are subtle. This was even lampshaded by Sunny in one story: "That's the good thing on Mauricio's characters all having the same face... No one can tell them apart!" (as Jimmy was wearing a bushy blonde wig to look like Sunny, who wanted to sneak out of his room despite being bedridden).

Finally, Monica and Jimmy respectively present each other with a poorly-knitted scarf and an insulting caricature, which leaves the girl in tears.

Although she manages to accomplish her goal of slimming down, she is horrified when she realizes her husband and son have gotten thin to the point of being clinically ill. This causes her to abandon her diet, restoring the status quo.

He manages to short-circuit every device on his house while changing a light bulb, and his first attempt to bake a pizza somehow results in the local mayor declaring a state of emergency. Smudge's father is quite clumsy, with the stories where he spends time with his son being heavy on the slapstick (specially as he has a tendency to try building toys or other things on those occasions).

Before that, there's been quite a number of direct-to-video releases containing a series of stories, such as 1988's "A Estrelinha MÃ¡gica" ("The Magic Little Star"). In 2019, it was also released a theatrical adaptation of the Graphic Novel Turma da MÃ´nica - LaÃ§os, being the first official Live-Action appearance of the gang. A sequel with the same cast, now adapting the Graphic Novel Turma da MÃ´nica - LiÃ§Ãµes, was released in 2021.

Monica's Gang (Comic Book) / int_1ed73929	comment	The Friends Who Never Hang: Maggy and the boys is a downplayed example. They do interact in the adventures where the four main characters share the spotlight, and she has had stories with them (though usually with either Jimmy or Smudge, less so with both of them at once), but the number of those is quite overshadowed by the number of stories Monica shares with them. It's sort of justified in that Monica just has more reasons to hang out with them, being more of a Tomboy than Maggy, and often target of their provocations, not to mention of course her relationship with Jimmy, which guarantees that they'll have some stories as a duo (however Monica does have plenty of stories with just Smudge too; one almanac had three of those). If Maggy's in a story with just one more character and that character is male, it's probably Junior, or maybe Franklin. (Or Vanilla.)

Monica's Gang (Comic Book) / int_26a9afaa	comment	Inverted since The New '10s: the characters are, little by little, losing all of theirs special characteristics and becoming more and more Flat Characters. Monica is much less likely to lose her temper and try to solve her problems by beating up people; Jimmy rarely ever comes up with elaborate plans to defeat Monica; Smudge's crippling fear of water is toned down; and Maggy's gluttony is barely brought up, out of concerns that it may lead to comparisons to compulsive eating. This was done in order to transform the lead characters into role models for young children, given that the comics have since changed their focus from comedic stories to educational ones.

Monica's Gang (Comic Book) / int_2764d432	type	Bitch in Sheep's Clothing
Monica's Gang (Comic Book) / int_2764d432	comment	Bitch in Sheep's Clothing: Maggy: Although Maggy likes to picture herself as a Nice Girl, her unpleasant side comes up whenever food is involved. She often takes huge bites out of other people's food, invades her neighbour's houses to raid their fridge, and outright swallows her own snacks to avoid sharing. Promotional material consistently describes her as "sweet", though her portrayal in the New '10s is of a snarky, occasionally selfish young girl. In one arc where the four main characters' monthly comics were interconnected, Maggy ends up getting mycosis from a beach trip. In the end, she comes over to her friends and upon hearing their own disastrous tales (Monica ruined her date with the boy she liked, Smudge ran away from home and Jimmy's pet chinchilla died), she immediately starts jumping happily and saying that she feels much better since her friends had it much worse than her. They are less than amused. More than a few stories have put Maggy in Monica's position of power over the block. She outright borders on The Caligula to the point that when Monica seizes back the position, the boys, who are normally scheming against her, welcome her back with open arms. Denise was also this in her old days, Depending on the Writer, before settling down as the Genki Girl Deadpan Snarker with a taste for gossip we know today. It was even lampshaded by her actress in the story which settled her current personality that whenever they needed the girls' group to have a False Friend, they'd go for Denise.

Near the end, he purchases an expensive hair tonic spray only to find out that all the tonic did was thicken the hair that already existed, not make new hair grow. In another, Jimmy tests out a hair tonic developed by Franklin, but instead of placing only a few drops on his hair, as Franklin advised, he just spills the entire tonic on his head. As a result, his hair starts cycling rapidly through different styles until it all falls out, leaving him completely bald.

Monica's Gang (Comic Book) / int_32da91b8	comment	Out of Focus: Specs was a major character in the 1960's newspaper strips, but quickly faded into obscurity once Franklin took his place as the gang's smart guy. His lack of prominence is lampshaded and mocked on occasion, such as when Monica says there is a rumour he had been trying to save his career by acting as a rock's stunt double in a Blu comic strip. (In his defense, it's a sentient, talking rock, with whom Blu often converses.) Bloggy vanished from the comics at the start of the New '20s. One comic book has Junior bring up his sudden disappearance, only for Maggy to reply that she had seen Bloggy in Jimmy's yard a while ago, implying that she has forgotten who he is and is mistaking him for Fluffy the dog. GarotÃ£o, Jimmy's giant friend in the 60s newspaper strips, who was never shown or heard on-screen, although he did interact with the other characters- he did make it into some of the earlier comics, when by then, he was only The Faceless, and frequently mistaken for a imaginary friend, but largely disappeared after that. BernardÃ£o, also from the 60s strips, and who didn't even make it into the comics, known for always dressing in black and attracting bad luck to anyone or anything that he was associated with or came close to, as exemplified on this dialogue from his debut: Jaime, Tina's boyfriend in the 80s that mostly disappared after that decade. Manezinho, who was created before the main characters, appearing recurrently in the 60s,making the transition into the early comics as well, also went through this for a while, appearing less and less from the 70s onwards and disappearing entirely by the 90s, until he started appearing regularly with Bucky and Franklin from the mid-2000s. TeveluisÃ£o, known for being obsessed with television and having a perpetual grin on his face, used to appear recurrently in the 60s strips, but since the 70s, only appears very sporadically, although he has had a small boost since Bloggy's (introduced as his brother) introduction.

Monica's Gang (Comic Book) / int_3b113b7	comment	Bucky was flanderized into a sexist, controlling, bitter ex to make Isabel's empowering Character Development more positive (Compare to his manga debut where they broke up because she wanted to do nothing but party but Bucky wanted to dedicate himself to his baseball career), the following chapters after "Shadows of the Past" treat Jimmy's forced relationship with Penha as intentional two-timing when he was actually being blackmailed into going out with her and even Monica seemed to regard that as such at the end of the arc, Maggy thinks it's totally fine to droll over the Hot Teacher in front of her boyfriend but she won't accept people calling her out on it or Todd glancing at another girl with the faintest hint of interest, although Todd at least calls her out on it herself and she's upset... Because he found out and didn't think he had noticed.

Monica's Gang (Comic Book) / int_3b4f620a	comment	No Fourth Wall: Characters frequently mention panels, the writing staff, the reader, and lampshade facts such as the barefoot characters not having toes. One amusing 3 letter panel had Jimmy and Smudge running away from Monica only for Jimmy to smile and suddenly stop after seeing the "End" graphic at the corner... of the second panel. The third panel shows a beaten-up Jimmy berating whoever made that mistake. One Chuck Billy story had him racing Zeke in many occasions, with Zeke always failing to beat Chuck. Then, at the last page, Zeke proposes to see who could get to the end of the story faster. After Chuck zips out of the panel, Zeke simply pulls a pencil out from his pocket and writes "END" at the corner of the frame he's in. Only half a page later, Chuck is still running, and looks up and sees how Zeke managed to fool him. A 1990s Smudge story which parodies the Sinbad the Sailor stories, much to his disgust (since he has to, you see, sail the seas of water), ends with him cutting off the narrator just as he starts going on about Smudge's next adventure (which would be Sinbad's third travel) and writting "End" at the bottom of the panel (with only one extra panel for denouement).

Monica's Gang (Comic Book) / int_3d5c5deb	comment	Flat Character: Xaveco/Sunny's most defining trait is the fact he is the most generic, forgettable member of the entire cast — the only trait he had to set himself apart was a ditz phase in the 1980s, and a recurring gag even is characters belittling him due to his status as a secondary character. Ironically, this also makes him very versatile, as his lack of a defined personality gives the writers much more freedom when utilizing him in the stories. As a result, he soon became one of the most recurring secondary characters come the 21st Century and a major Breakout Character whose popularity almost eclipses that of the protagonists. Jeremiah occasionally gets some exposure in stories that focus on his African descent, or solo stories concerning his nice hat, but is otherwise the least developed member of the cast. This is lampshaded in a Christmas special, when Franklin mistakes him for Nimbus and asks him to perform a magic trick. After Jeremiah clears out the confusion, Franklin angrily tells him that "as a character, he is even more worthless than Sunny".

Monica's Gang (Comic Book) / int_3dd3a9eb	comment	The teen spin-off was originally conceived as a means to combine the franchise's signature comedy with adventures that had higher stakes, typical teen drama, and occasionally some horror elements. However, the second season drops most of these ideas in favour of mundane stories that appeal to a much younger demographic, as exemplified by an issue which focuses entirely on Nick Nope's bad odor. The only exception to this Tone Shift is the "Portal of Darkness" two-parter, a horror story that is about as dark as the first season's "End of the World Saga".

Monica's Gang (Comic Book) / int_4dbd3706	type	Clap Your Hands If You Believe
Monica's Gang (Comic Book) / int_4dbd3706	comment	* Clap Your Hands If You Believe: In "Astral Heaven", Monica convinces Jimmy of the Astral Hell, an astrological phenomenon in which one suffers great misfortunes in the days leading up to their birthday. Immediately afterwards, Jimmy is involved in a series of accidents and decides to lock himself in his room until his birthday, despite his mom's protests that superstitions only affect people who believe in them. It's heavily implied she is correct, as the bad luck seemingly vanishes when Jimmy believes the Astral Hell is over, only to return with double the intensity once he realizes he had miscounted the days on the calendar. In "O Urubu da ConfusÃ£o" ("The Vulture of Confusion"), Monica and Jimmy accidentally break a mirror and become convinced that the act has unleashed the Uruca, an evil entity from another dimension who will curse them with extreme bad luck. Throughout the comic, whenever someone says the creature's name, Jimmy is struck by a random lightning bolt, though this stops once he stops believing in the curse.

The Horseman of Pestilence can manipulate organic matter, producing grotesque results. He is the host of the Serpent's insects, which crawl under his skin. Though he initially looks like a feeble old man, he shapeshifts into a centipede-like monster. When Sofia tears his body in two, he reorganizes his cells into the shape of a giant cockroach. One of his first actions is to transform the lower half of Monica's body into a slug. To grant himself protection against Penha's dominating sneer, the Horseman removes his own eyes, leaving two lumps of skin where his eye sockets were supposed to be.

While he was never depicted as being in the right (even if one story has the girlfriend deciding she preferred RubÃ£o's Stay in the Kitchen attitude rather than her more accepting new boyfriend...), the character proved to be so controversial that he was eventually dropped.

They like stealing Samson specifically to get Monica angry, so just getting it too easily and without her knowing won't do. It's quite similar to what happens between Chuck Billy and his friends and Mr. Lau. According to them, the guavas just don't taste the same if Lau isn't running after them yelling and cursing. In one story in the 80s, Chuck decided to plant his own guava tree, but once it started bearing fruit, he didn't like the taste, for this specific reason.

His fear is such that he can spontaneously come up with wild ways to avoid getting wet, such as flapping his arms like wings to avoid falling into a lake. Though his teen version has overcome his fear to a certain degree, he is still not very fond of the idea of bathingnote Brazil is a tropical country, where it's customary to shower/bathe at the very least once a day. In his teens, Smudge only does that bare minimum.. Monica, while superstrong and brave, has her own girly fears (like pretty much every other girl in the gang): she will shriek and cower at the sight of any mouse, bug, worm or what have you. Needless to say, Jimmy has used it to his advantage more than once. Marina is abnormally afraid of dogs. A comic that explores her phobia has her crawling up an air vent to avoid Monica's dog, and it's played as a homage to Alien.

Monica's Gang (Comic Book) / int_5f611b7e	comment	Good All Along: Played with in "Umbra". The seven ghost children are originally stated to be evil spirits that haunt the city of SococÃ³ da Ema. Then it's revealed that this was all a lie, and they were actually trying to protect everyone from the real Big Bad. After the gang succeeds in bringing them back to life, Smudge starts finding flaws in their backstory, causing him to speculate that maybe they really were evil after all. His theory is correct, as the seven children start using their powers to take over the city as soon as the heroes leave.

Monica's Gang (Comic Book) / int_5f9fbd83	type	Not Allowed to Grow Up
Monica's Gang (Comic Book) / int_5f9fbd83	comment	Not Allowed to Grow Up: Zigzagged and occasionally lampshaded. The main cast is always seven, nevermind the fact the series has been running for over 40 years. Every year there's a special edition featuring one of the main characters' 7th birthday. This is lampshaded when someone asks Jimmy how old he's turning. "Seven," he replies, "just like evewy other year." In one of the late-2009 issues, it is implied that all of the birthday stories are actually about THE ONE AND ONLY BIRTHDAY PARTY they will ever experience - the 7th birthday party. This means, for example, that every Jimmy's birthday-themed story reveals one of the events that happened in his 7th birthday party. Again, the main character of this story is... Jimmy Five. Notoriously averted with the Spinoff Teens manga, which was first released in 2008. "They grew up!" even became the franchise's tagline for the first few issues. The Sliding Timescale is alluded to in a special issue released by the time of the 2010 FIFA World Cup, in which Maggy's mother was stated to be pregnant of her in 2002, while Monica and Jimmy appear as babies in 2006 (complete with rewriting the infamous Zidane headbutt into one of her first bunny-bashings gone wrong: she tried to hit Jimmy, but the bunny slipped off her hand all the way to Berlin) which, considering they're all about the same age, would be quite inaccurate (they'd have to be three to four years old by the latter point). It's referenced again in a story involving a Creepy Doll made in 2010, where Maggy recounts its first appearance. She begins with "It all started in March 2001..." only for Jimmy to stop her and point out that, if Maggy is seven years old, she shouldn't even be born yet by that time. Downplayed with Tina and her pals, who do age, but only by a few years after a couple of real-life decades. Tina was 12 when she was created in 1970, but turned 16 in the '80s. In the late 2000's, Word of God confirmed that she had turned 18, and her 2019 graphic novel portrayed her as a 22-year-old woman. Depending on the Writer, her and her friends are either still on college or working office jobs.

It doesn't take long for Jimmy Five to not only start making increasingly totalitarian demands (the boys could only listen to music HE likes, and he was to be fed ice-cream every day during the summer, and popcorn with tea in the winter, for instance) but to start talking about world domination. The other boys quickly defect to Monica's side, and Jimmy, left without subjects, relinquishes the power (and gets beaten up as a consequence, as usual). When Maggy became street ruler during Monica's absence, one of her demands was for the boys to constantly feed her.

Monica's Gang (Comic Book) / int_66755d29	comment	Author Avatar: Mauricio appears more or less often in the stories, and the rest of the writing staff appears sometimes. He's also a character in-universe, as Marina's dad, along with his wife Alice Takeda. While Monica's father, Mr. Sousa, was also based on Mauricio himself, he is drawn like a young Mauricio (because Monica was created in 1963, when he was 28 years old), while Marina's father looks like the older Mauricio (Marina was created in 1995, when Mauricio was already 60 years old). The parody of The Lord of the Rings has as its antagonist Sousauron, who prior to becoming a Faceless Eye was known as Maurisauron. Up until the publication of Horacio's graphic novel, all of his stories were written exclusively by Mauricio. This is because he viewed Horacio as a representation of himself and as a means to convey his personal philosophies, and therefore felt nobody else would be able to grasp the character's true essence.

He never wants to take care of her, said she had a "knee-like" face when she was born (which was sort of understandable, since he was around five years-old), and overall tends to see her as a Annoying Younger Sibling. One story takes it to the extreme by having him taking Mary Angela for a walk... in a dog collar. Despite this, he's never outright mean to her on purpose, several stories show that he can take care of her in a extremely competent manner, and often stops her from accidentally hurting herself (once he actually saved her from nearly being ran by a car while crawling close to the street).

It didn't show Monica responsible or commissioned for it at any point, despite that clearly she was equally wrong in many of their arguments over the long run and, if anything, slowly changing for the worse. Bucky was flanderized into a sexist, controlling, bitter ex to make Isabel's empowering Character Development more positive (Compare to his manga debut where they broke up because she wanted to do nothing but party but Bucky wanted to dedicate himself to his baseball career), the following chapters after "Shadows of the Past" treat Jimmy's forced relationship with Penha as intentional two-timing when he was actually being blackmailed into going out with her and even Monica seemed to regard that as such at the end of the arc, Maggy thinks it's totally fine to droll over the Hot Teacher in front of her boyfriend but she won't accept people calling her out on it or Todd glancing at another girl with the faintest hint of interest, although Todd at least calls her out on it herself and she's upset...

It starts with Chuck failing to remember why he tied a string around his finger in the first place, spending the whole day asking people if they had anything to do with it. He finally remembers what he had to do during bedtime, which was to save his best friend, who was in a Literal Cliffhanger the entire time.

Jimmy's enthusiasm is short-lived, as Smudge then explains that wives hit their husbands with rolling pins instead. In their second game for the Sega Master System (a reskin of Wonder Boy III: The Dragon's Trap), Maggy's weapon is a rolling pin.

Monica's Gang (Comic Book) / int_72cdfc33	comment	Big Bad Ensemble: In "An Adventure in Time", the gang travels to different time periods to retrieve canisters containing essences of the four Classical Elements, though they soon face opposition in the form of four different villains: Monica has to defeat Pitoco, a caveman who uses the fire element to convince his fellow tribesmen that he is a god and to coerce Thuga into becoming his bride. Jimmy faces Cabeleira Negra, a space pirate who adds the wind canister to her treasure collection. Smudge has to deal with Goldtooth, a degenerate treasure hunter who, seeking to harvest the gold at the bottom of the rivers, uses the water canister to cause a drought in the Amazon rainforest. Maggy has to retrieve the earth element from baby Monica, who clings to it like a toy and creates earthquakes whenever someone tries to separate her from it. While the toddler is not nearly as malicious as the other antagonists, she is still the final obstacle the gang must face in their quest, and is alligned with the villains in the comic book cover.

Monica calls her heartless for torturing animals, and Maggy points out that her repressed hatred and loneliness have made her unable to feel empathy. Her growing resentment ultimately transforms her into a malevolent spirit, whom Angel has to personally drag into the afterlife to save Monica's life. The Tenebrous Doll is unlike other antagonists in that she has no goal other than to terrorize and murder her victims. In her debut storyline, she plots to explode Maggy's house with a bundle of dynamite while the protagonist is still inside.

It helps that the comic often does send-offs to popular media aimed at older audiences, such as a special retelling of Lost and the "Cinema Classics" parodies of RoboCop, The Ring and It (2017). Downplayed since the New '10s, since most of the stories that are not advertised on the comic books' covers are didactic in nature and directed exclusively towards very young kids.

Due to Denise's rising popularity, she soon started usurping the roles of other secondary characters, most notably by replacing Marina as the voice of reason to Monica and Maggy.

He loses a bet after betting on the hare from "The Hare and the Tortoise", gets chased by the wolf from "The Wolf and the Lamb", gets tricked by the fox from "The Fox and the Goat" and in return tricks her into tasting castor beans in "The Fox and the Grapes", until he finally returns home.

Monica's Gang (Comic Book) / int_7c9933de	comment	In a world where most villains are Laughably Evil, Agnes stands out as a thoroughly sinister antagonist. Monica calls her heartless for torturing animals, and Maggy points out that her repressed hatred and loneliness have made her unable to feel empathy. Her growing resentment ultimately transforms her into a malevolent spirit, whom Angel has to personally drag into the afterlife to save Monica's life.

One could forgive her for the misunderstanding, but she beats him up before even asking any questions, which prompts a battered Jimmy to explain that he was talking about a football coach's plan to defeat another team (which in Portuguese has a female pronoun). Monica doesn't even believe it till Sunny vouches for him and says he's been with Jimmy all day. An embarrassed Monica and the girls quickly say sorry and leave, while Sunny remarks to Jimmy that he has grown a rather unfortunate fame for himself.

The title character and all other ghosts are literal Bedsheet Ghosts. Occasionally, they lose their bedsheets and become invisible people instead. Lady McDeath is The Grim Reaper, though a female and quite clumsy interpretation of the creature. Has a counterpart in the Reincarnation Stork. Vic Vampire is a Classical Movie Vampire, who fails in his bloodsucking task very often, and sometimes is even given bat traits. Many strips show him and other vampires sleeping by hanging upside down by the legs - usually on tree branches - rather than inside a coffin. In the cartoons, he is given a faux-Slavic accent. Frank is based on Frankenstein's Monster, but is a Gentle Giant Manchild whose body parts frequently fall off. Wolfgang is a werewolf who mostly behaves like a dog. Moe the Mummy is, well, a Mummy. Depending on the story, taking out the wraps makes him invisible or reveals his dry corpse. Skully is just a disembodied skull (and not too happy about it). Later stories also added a Fishman who is rather grumpy, although he doesn't live in the graveyard with the rest of the characters.

Ironically, this also makes him very versatile, as his lack of a defined personality gives the writers much more freedom when utilizing him in the stories. As a result, he soon became one of the most recurring secondary characters come the 21st Century and a major Breakout Character whose popularity almost eclipses that of the protagonists.

Monica's Gang (Comic Book) / int_8430699a	comment	Alternate Universe: While the manga itself is considered one to the kids' gang (even according to Word of God), its issue #36 adds in another AU, a Crapsack World in which Jimmy, who didn't care about getting better from his speech impediment, does indeed rule the street by being a gigantic asshole to everybody, asserting his authority through threats of exposing their secrets. Even the teachers at the school don't get any respect from him. He only grows out of it when the rest of the gang decides to not care about the blackmail and come clean with each other, thus breaking the hold he had over them. Plus, when Smudge's uncle (a powerless, Corrupt Corporate Executive version of Captain Fray) tried to get a hold of Franklin's world domination machine, built at Jimmy's behest, he was sent to an uninhabited planet because, since it was built in such a hurry, there was nothing in it to specify which world the user wanted to rule. Seeing it could have happened to him, Jimmy loses his jerkiness. The reason for all this? Monica had moved away from the neighborhood while they were still children, essentially leaving a vacuum in her friends' lives. When she came back all grown up, no one recognized her. Other differences in this AU: Maggy didn't learn to put her appetite in check, so she grew fat; Bucky is shy and insecure, while Sunny is more outgoing and confident; Franklin is a nebbish geek who can't find it in him to approach Marina; Nutty Ned is still a teacher, but has a lot more composure (despite being apparently aware of the AU), and he's the target of Maggy's juvenile crush; Nimbus is a failure at magic; and Sunny's sister didn't make the cut for the space program, working at a fast food joint instead. Another AU gets created in the "Flying Donkey" arc, where the main four are possessed and taken over by evil entities under the Flying Donkey's bidding, Maggy's latent magic saves her, Monica and Smudge, but Jim decides to keep the entitie within himself because of the powers it gave him, to use them for his ambitions. The 3 turn on him and warn the others against him, but Jim convinces most of the boys to join him with the promise of making a better world, Smudge obtains Captain Fray's powers and turns evil, Maggy isolates herself out of fear people are only using her for her magic, leaving Monica, Sunny, Denise and the rest to lead a resistance against them after Jim takes over the world with Franklin's help and turns everything into a Crapsack World. The twist of "The Portal of Darkness" is that the dark world to which the heroes' souls had been sent is actually identical to the main reality, but their version of Smudge succumbed to the Malevolence's influence and became its messiah.

But she somehow ends up always being in the right, not being called out on any of her bad deeds or getting away with it with nothing but a slap-on-the-wrist.

Monica's Gang (Comic Book) / int_8967e17f	type	Back from the Dead
Monica's Gang (Comic Book) / int_8967e17f	comment	Back from the Dead: Jimmy Five died and came back twice: In a 1990 story, Jimmy is slated to die and become a angel, and once Angel finds out, he repeatedly saves Jimmy from many accidents that Angel's boss set up (such as falling off a cliff or being crushed by a massive safe), until Jimmy gets killed by being struck with lightning. Fortunately, in the end, at seeing how broken up Angel is by Jimmy's death, God brings him back. In a later story, he accidentally fell off a cliff while trying to flee from Monica. The story was about him accompanying Lady MacDeath to Heaven and Hell before she decides where he should go. However, after seeing him trying to protect Monica from the Devil, Lady MacDeath gets emotional and decides that Jimmy deserves one more shot at living. Chuck Billy has died but came back to life at least twice: After getting another bad grade at school, he decided to never study again and came across a man who persuaded him to just ditch school and have fun the way he wants. Later Chuck decided to swim in a dangerous river (kicking away the warning sign, to boot), but the rapids dragged him under and he woke up in Hell, where the man revealed himsself to be the Devil, who just wanted an opportunity to take his soul. Chuck was ultimately saved by an angel, who carried him out of Hell and back to Earth to have a second chance, as God knew that, as a child, he is still prone to making mistakes (the implicit point being that Chuck could never learn from them if he died). Chuck trips while fleeing from Lau, snapping his neck once he hits the ground. When an angel comes to take his soul to Heaven, Chuck's spirit dives back into his own body, which miraculously comes back to life. The teary-eyed angel then muses to himself that the Lord must have been moved by the boy once again.

He has been able to create functioning time machines, multitask robots, size shifting potions and many, manyothers. Justified since Status Quo Is God, naturally, and also most of his creations are infamously far from flawless (though, of course, just the fact that he's able to make something close to the real thing would be world-changing). One story came close to subvert this trope. Franklin managed to build a machine at Maggy's request that could multiply food, and came to realize that, since with one sandwich he could make thousands, he had ended world hunger. Cue some merchants understandably pissed, since now they were probably going bankrupt. Before Franklin can figure out a solution, the rest of the gang finds out that the machine's food copies have actually no nutritional value, not satisfying hunger whatsoever. Another from Franklin involves a time machine, which he worries about falling in the wrong hands in a conversation with Smudge. As soon as he says this, a lot of people show up trying to use their machine for their own purposes (even, hilariously enough, an ice cream man who wants to use it to Take Over the World). Franklin's solution to this is to travel back in time to keep them from taking the machine, thus creating a Stable Time Loop, which is even acknowledged by the final caption:

Monica's Gang (Comic Book) / int_8cb1a369	comment	Took a Level in Jerkass: Monica, who is basically a Brazilian Bella Swan. In #94, the character jumps to disgusting levels of jerkassery, especially in the ending. Bucky became a massive sexist, controlling asshat, even after his break-up with Isabel. Jimmy, whose ambition led him to basically become the Token Evil Teammate. He's starting to mellow out though, especially after he unwittingly nearly causes Monica to become Ret-Gone due to his sorrow over losing her to Nick Nope. In the original comics, Penha was just a snobbish Spoiled Brat; but her teenage self is considerably more dangerous, as she devises a complex plot to get Monica arrested. When that fails, she personally tries to kill the protagonist by running her over with Angelo's sword. Her ruthlessness ultimately transforms her into one of the Horsemen of the Apocalypse, representing War. Zeca in the original comics was just an average city boy who had difficulty adjusting to the rural lifestyle. His teen version is a pretentious show-off who cannot go six months without asking his parents for a new car. His sexist comments drive Denise up the wall, and Monica herself calls him an insufferable person.

Monica's Gang (Comic Book) / int_8d630561	comment	Simultaneous Arcs: The December 2005 comic books feature a continuous narrative. In Smudge's book, he decides to run away from home and shows up at Jimmy's place, but his friend is too focused on his pet chinchilla to pay attention to him. Said pet dies in Jimmy's story, and he is comforted by Monica at the end of her comic book. Finally, Maggy returns from a trip to the beach and finds her desolated friends at the end of her own story. The covers for the May 2006 comic books can be connected to make one big artwork, hinting that their stories are also linked. In Monica's book, she notices her stuffed bunny has gone missing and suspects Jimmy of stealing it. However, Denise points out Jimmy is at Sunny's farm (which is the focus of his own story), leading Monica to investigate Junior instead. Upon arriving at his place, she is greeted by Crystal, who is in a bad mood due to having to put up with Junior's antics (as shown in Maggy's comic book). Finally, Smudge's story has him growing jealous of Jimmy and Sunny's friendship and trying to find a new best friend. The June 2007 comic books show the main four getting ready for Denise's birthday party. Monica helps Denise set up the decorations, Jimmy tries to clean his party clothes after a last minute accident, Smudge tries to find Denise the perfect gift, and Maggy comes into conflict with an evil witch while searching for a cake. The June 2018 stories from Monica, Jimmy and Maggy's comics all take place at the same time. Jimmy offers to look after Franklin's lab while the latter attends a scientist convention (which is the focus of Maggy's story), but comes across an interdimensional monster, which he manages to tame. He then decides to use the beast in his latest scheme against Monica, with the results being shown at the end of her comic book.

Monica's Gang (Comic Book) / int_8e1aef2d	comment	Reference Overdosed: Each of the Cinema Classics specials feature at least one large panel in which characters from various media make cameo appearances. Said cameos often tie in to the general theme of the current setting, such as Link, Finn and Etrigan showing up in the parody of The Lord of the Rings because they all hail from old-fashioned worlds that resemble the Middle Ages. This trope is turned into a game in "Paul Is Dead". The final panel notes that there are 28 references to The Beatles' songs spread throughout the comic and challenges the reader to spot them all. The famous "Escape from the Infinite Comic Books" storyline follows Jimmy and Smudge as they jump through multiple comic book worlds as they try to return to their own universe. The duo is transported to the worlds of The Fairly OddParents!, The Simpsons, Peanuts and many others before finally making their way home.

Monica's Gang (Comic Book) / int_95b875b1	comment	Not Me This Time: Occasionally, it's really not Jimmy who stole Samson. Many one-page/short stories will have Smudge as being the culprit just for the sake of a quick subversion (since Monica will always go for Jimmy first), but sometimes it's not the main boys at all. In one comic, not only Samson but all the girls' dolls are stolen, and Monica, who had listened to Jimmy talking to Sunny about how "the plan will work, and we're finishing her this time" earlier that day, immediately blames him. One could forgive her for the misunderstanding, but she beats him up before even asking any questions, which prompts a battered Jimmy to explain that he was talking about a football coach's plan to defeat another team (which in Portuguese has a female pronoun). Monica doesn't even believe it till Sunny vouches for him and says he's been with Jimmy all day. An embarrassed Monica and the girls quickly say sorry and leave, while Sunny remarks to Jimmy that he has grown a rather unfortunate fame for himself. Another story had this done quite creatively: Monica finds Samson missing and goes to interrogate the boys, one by one, only to find they all have perfectly reasonable alibis. She then has a flash and notices the artists had used Samson to stylize the title of the story, so she goes back and picks it up.

In response to fan backlash, he changes his name to Angelo at the end of the first arc, but not before Denise mercilessly mocks his alias. Captain Fray changes his codename to Dark Dust in the first arc. When he returns as the main antagonist of "The Reversed Tower", he embraces his original designation, acknowledges that "Dark Dust" was an overly edgy name, and blames this poor decision on him having a middle-age crisis.

Monica's Gang (Comic Book) / int_9b06e314	comment	Greater-Scope Villain: The Serpent is a primordial being of pure evil. Its presence is felt in each chapter of the "End of the World Saga", as it preys on the other antagonists' negative emotions: Though not outright stated, Agnes made a pact with the Serpent shortly after her death in order to become one of the Shadow People. This is subtly suggested when Rosie is corrupted into a form similar to Agnes' ghost in "Heirs of the Earth", and confirmed by Emerson Abreu. It exploits the Flying Donkey's grief to teach her how to perform black magic, setting the events of "Umbra" in motion. In "Heirs of the Earth", it manipulates the heroes into destroying planet Tomb, thus setting it free from its prison. It takes advantage of Captain Fray's despair to give him the power to control pollution, leading to the events of "The Reversed Tower".

Monica's Gang (Comic Book) / int_9bcd82c0	type	Took a Level in Badass
Monica's Gang (Comic Book) / int_9bcd82c0	comment	Took a Level in Badass: Jim grows a backbone and starts to call out Monica on her violent tendencies and bossy attitude. In issues #23 and #24, which have a Whole-Plot Reference to Death Note, Jim takes on the identity of "The Great Clown", who can send people into laughing fits by writing their names into his magical "Laughter Note". Smudge says that, since Monica is so hotheaded, she could be a potential target of the Clown. When Monica protests that she doesn't deserve to have a laughing attack, Jim angrily tells her that he's had enough of her constant bad mood. In issue #26, where two brothers who are professional rollerbladers, note Carmen's cousins, no less are bullying everyone around their city and acting like colossal pricks, Monica gets fed up with their attitude, challenges them to a rollerblading contest, and forces Maggy, Smudge and Jim to participate alongside her despite none of them knowing how to skate. After she repeatedly berates Jim for his lack of skill and accuses him of not putting enough effort into this training, he retaliates with a "The Reason You Suck" Speech. Captain Fray becomes quite The Chessmaster in the later issues, as his powers have evolved, making him able to cause erosion. It is later revealed that these powers came from a Deal with the Devil in return from being saved from a landslide that demolished his home and killed his parents. Todd, who grew some major cajones not only as he grew up, but as the manga itself progressed. Unlike most of the male cast (save for minor exceptions, such as Nick Nope), Todd takes none of the girls' Double Standard bullcrap, often pointing out that he doesn't take well to Maggy's crush on the science teacher and yet getting fussy when he looks at other girls with the faintest hint of interest. There's also the way he handled his bullying in later issues, with no need whatsoever to get violent, and still coming out on top. Maggy has incredible magical powers as a descendant of the Coven of Hecate, but they needed to be sealed inside her mind due to their highly destructive potential and the eventual toll it would take on her sanity. As such, they can only be triggered through a code phrase, and locked again with another. It is implied that she loses these powers for good at the end of the Reversed Tower arc. Humbert is deaf and mute, which often led others to ignore him when he was a child. In the Bad Future seen in "Shadows from the Future", Jim takes advantage of how silent Humbert is to transform him into a fearsome spy.

Jeremias doesn't have much presence in the main comics, with some of his friends Breaking the Fourth Wall by calling him a "filler character".

This dates back from Mauricio's old strips, out of a need to simplify the design. It also seems to be the reason for the toeless barefoot characters (Monica wore shoes in her first appearance, but more bits of them were erased at each strip as he had less and less time to get them ready - he worked alone at the time -, until she became barefoot and toeless).

It's completely normal to see her gobbling an entire one down. Lettuce is Horacio's favourite food, which is ironic, considering he is a baby T. rex. Chuck Billy has a great love for guavas, especially those stolen from Mr. Lau's orchard.

She became a tritagonist to Monica and Maggy in later stories, and eventually developed into her own independent character, a sassy Deadpan Snarker with a sharp tongue. This culminated in her being upgraded into a member of the main cast in the teen spin-off.

Jim embraces the curse placed on him by the Flying Donkey and becomes an undead, megalomaniacal tyrant. He converts the male members of the gang into a robotic army and, with Franklin's help, develops a computer virus that puts all electronics under his control as part of his quest for world domination. Smudge becomes Captain Fray's successor, an agent of pestilence who plots to pollute the Earth. Maggy loses her sanity after being overwhelmed by her latent magic powers. Paranoid that the rest of the world intends to exploit her, she isolates herself in a tower and violently attacks anyone who intrudes her domain.

Monica's Gang (Comic Book) / int_b53077b3	comment	Take That!: The Crossover with the Justice League of America has the gang traveling across multiple famous DC issues and recruiting superheroes to help Superman overcome his rogues gallery. When Sunny suggests they recruit the Golden Age Aquaman next, everyone responds with uproarious laughter (including Hush-era Batman, which Sunny points out to be incredibly Out of Character). They then warp to the New 52 universe to enlist the help of the modern version of Aquaman. The parody of The Lord of the Rings pokes fun at the much-maligned wizard battle from the first film. As the Captain Ersatzes of Gandalf and Saruman hurl invisible spells at each other, Sauron comments that the duel is boring him and leaves. The parody of The Avengers (2012) pokes fun at many of the criticisms leveled against the Marvel Cinematic Universe, such as Hawkeye being rather weak compared to the rest of the heroes,note His Captain Ersatz is an incompetent buffoon who can't hit a target that is directly in front of him the reliance on post-credit scenes to set up future filmsnote Which is represented by Junior's mother growing progressively exasperated as the film never seems to end and the excessive number of scenarios in which superheroes fight each other for contrived reasons. In at least two stories, Emerson Abreu has ridiculized "The Ketchup Song", a song that went viral in Brazil during the 2000's despite mostly negative reviews from critics. In "PerfeiÃ§Ã£o", Mrs. Five immediately shoots down Jimmy's proposal to perform the song's choreography during the school play; and in "Desconectados", its lyrics are used to represent the sound of dying computers.

In a storyline based on Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves, the gang is captured by the thieves and imprisoned in an underground cell in the middle of the desert. Jimmy comes up with a convoluted plan, which involves sending Smudge's pet flies across the ocean to retrieve items to aid in their escape, but then realizes Monica has just punched a hole through the wall. He disheartedly laments that, once again, they had to rely on "the same old clichÃ© of Monica's strength". A Running Gag in the Justice League of America crossover is someone posing a difficult problem for the gang, only for Monica to solve it by throwing her bunny at someone. This includes freeing Superman from a parasite, restoring the Flash's memory, and defeating the likes of Black Manta, Mxyzptlk and Mongul.

Monica's Gang (Comic Book) / int_c145f69b	comment	One story came close to subvert this trope. Franklin managed to build a machine at Maggy's request that could multiply food, and came to realize that, since with one sandwich he could make thousands, he had ended world hunger. Cue some merchants understandably pissed, since now they were probably going bankrupt. Before Franklin can figure out a solution, the rest of the gang finds out that the machine's food copies have actually no nutritional value, not satisfying hunger whatsoever.

When the spell wears off, her pumpkin carriage reverts into a car driven by a Diabolical Dogcatcher, who takes her to a prison-like pound. Luckily, she is identified by the prince when her lost collar fits her neck, thus enabling her to be set free.

Monica's Gang (Comic Book) / int_c75df49a	comment	Shout-Out: In "LembranÃ§as": Jimmy confesses to having a Precocious Crush towards Crystal by singing a heavily butchered version of Peter Cetera's "Glory of Love". The anime that Monica and Maggy watch during their sleepover is an obvious parody of Sailor Moon. The first few verses of the theme song are even a direct copy of the Brazilian translation. Monica and Maggy pretend to be superheroines, with the former calling herself "Serena" and quoting Sailor Moon's catchphrases, and the latter threatening to summon her robots to make up a "Mecha Zord". The song Monica sings at Carminha's birthday party is a parody of "Lua de Cristal", by Xuxa Meneghel. When Jimmy asks Monica to hammer a nail, he calls her "The Mighty Thor". In "Temporal", Gerson tries to get his nephew Smudge to open up by talking about comic books. He asks the boy whether he likes older comics or "the New 22", a reference to the 2011 DC event that rebooted the company's entire continuity. In "Franklin: Contact": Among the items in Franklin's bedroom, it's possible to spot a couple of He-Man action figures, a Ghostbusters poster, and assorted sci-fi novels, including Journey to the Center of the Earth, 2001: A Space Odyssey and I, Robot. Franklin shows up in front of Jeremiah's house while holding a radio above his head, mimicking the iconic scene from Say Anything.... Lampshaded, as Jeremiah says that he understood that reference. Franklin wonders what questions he should ask to the mysterious person who has contacted him through his radio. After an awkward silence, he says "Who's your favorite Ninja Turtle?" Marty and Doc Brown appear in a thought bubble when comic book Franklin reflects on the dangers of meeting his alternate self. Franklin recalls that, when he was a young child, he and his mother played on the beach by pretending to be John and Sarah Connor.

Monica's Gang (Comic Book) / int_ce6555f0	comment	Lighter and Softer: The teen spin-off was originally conceived as a means to combine the franchise's signature comedy with adventures that had higher stakes, typical teen drama, and occasionally some horror elements. However, the second season drops most of these ideas in favour of mundane stories that appeal to a much younger demographic, as exemplified by an issue which focuses entirely on Nick Nope's bad odor. The only exception to this Tone Shift is the "Portal of Darkness" two-parter, a horror story that is about as dark as the first season's "End of the World Saga". In-Universe, the legend of the Flying Donkey was sugarcoated in order to turn it into a profittable brand. She is not a benevolent spirit who guards over children, but an insane old woman who killed several innocents in a ritual designed to bring her daughter Back from the Dead.

Monica's Gang (Comic Book) / int_cfdb9e17	comment	Cerebus Syndrome: Pretty much any story written by Emerson de Abreu. The "Flying Donkey" arc introduces us to the biggest horrors in this series' history, Jim stayed dead for most of it, Sunny's Future self comes back to the present timeline to stop Jim from turning the world into a Crapsack World as he did in Future Sunny's original timeline. By exorcising the spirit of the Flying Donkey, the protagonists may have played Unwitting Pawn to the Children of Umbra that they thought were victims at first but are hinted to have become evil after 20 years in limbo, and if Future Denise's words at the end of Issue #79 are any indication, it's not over yet. The Reversed Tower arc (#90-92) is this as well, by making Captain Fray an agent of the pestilence which threatens to corrode the world and reshape it to their own notion of order. The gang has to resort to Maggy's innate magic to guide them, but it falls upon Smudge, the closest person to Captain Fray, to save everyone from the growing madness of the titular place - a series of underground levels designed in the fashion of Dante's Inferno by an elite group to assume control over humankind, and upon which an orphanage was built as a front, to which a child Fray was sent after his parents died from a landslide. It turns out that he made a pact with the Serpent, the leader of the insects, to have his life saved in the event, and in return they gave him powers that cause corrosion and decay. Once he reaches adulthood, the Serpent comes to demand he becomes the bearer of the Curse of Pestilence, for if he refuses, it will pass on to the person he loves the most - his nephew, Smudge. And that is how he became the Captain Fray we know.

Also, some dialogue in Chuck Billy's stories is also rewritten to keep the accent consistent.

Monica's Gang (Comic Book) / int_e5e6640b	type	Flanderization
Monica's Gang (Comic Book) / int_e5e6640b	comment	Flanderization: All characters had more subdued traits in the original newspaper strips, but by the 1980s they were severely flanderized. Monica went from a mere short-tempered girl to one-punching a Superman expy, Smudge went from just not liking bathing to literally never bathing, Maggie went from merely gluttonous to an impossible Big Eater, and so on. During the first half of the Turn of the Millennium, the kids were much more hyperactive, and had some traits amped up so as to come across as almost negative - for example, having the resident Big Eater flying into a frenzy at the slightest mention of anything food-related, and using Sunny's perceived "lack of notability" to make him the all-around Butt-Monkey (something he was never known for before). Also, they tack in lots of OOC Moments, if only for Rule of Funny. Inverted since The New '10s: the characters are, little by little, losing all of theirs special characteristics and becoming more and more Flat Characters. Monica is much less likely to lose her temper and try to solve her problems by beating up people; Jimmy rarely ever comes up with elaborate plans to defeat Monica; Smudge's crippling fear of water is toned down; and Maggy's gluttony is barely brought up, out of concerns that it may lead to comparisons to compulsive eating. This was done in order to transform the lead characters into role models for young children, given that the comics have since changed their focus from comedic stories to educational ones. Agnes' "weirdness" became increasingly more pronounced with each new story. In her debut, she was just an average nerdy girl, but the next comic amplified her social awkwardness by making her a hypochondriac and implying that she enjoys imprisoning birds. Her next appearance reveals she lives with her undead parents and actually eats the birds she hunts. Finally, the prelude to "Shadows from the Past" has her attempting to eat Maggy's cat, and an offhand comment from her mother strongly suggests that Agnes is also a cannibal.

Isabel's most defining trait is her jealousy, but since Bucky is a shameless flirt, her case is more justified. Puff, from Tina's Pals, is quite the jealous girlfriend, always assuming her boyfriend Steve is checking other women out and/or on the verge of cheating on her. One story exaggerated this greatly by showing that she somehow engraved his name backwards on his shoe soles so that whenever she feels the need to follow him she can tell they're his footsteps. Unlike Isabel, she's completely off the mark, since Steve truly loves her and her suspicions are proven wrong pretty much every timenote Steve used to have "wandering eyes" in the past, but he's been solidified as more of a slacker than actually unfaithful.

Monica's Gang (Comic Book) / int_eb6da8ef	comment	Crossover: Issues #43 and #44 cross the characters over with many Osamu Tezuka characters. Mauricio and Tezuka had been close friends when the latter was alive, and the idea had been in the works for quite some time, even before Tezuka's passing. Like their kids' version, the teens cross over with the Justice League (issues #25 and #26 of Volume 2) However, unlike the stories in the kids' books which are akin to Silver Age stories, this one plays more like a conventional Crisis Crossover, with the Legion of Doom using a "Sisterbox" (a modified Motherbox) to dump the heroes (and Harley Quinn) in the Teen Gang's universe, just as the Gang's own Rogues Gallery starts attacking the city. The second issue takes place in an Alternate Continuity where the Gang and the Justice League coexist, only this time it's Monica and friends who are sent into famous locations from the DC Universe thanks to one of Franklin's teleporters. They end up helping the superheroes fight off a gigantic creature made of ocean garbage, result of a battle between Superman and Captain Fray.

Monica's Gang (Comic Book) / int_fc7c4f92	comment	Canon Immigrant: Nik, a gamer/vlogger introduced in issue #100 of the Teen imprint, is later brought into the kids' universe in order to have another Afro-descendant kid to play Falcon in their Avengers: Age of Ultron parody (which itself is full of nods to the Marvel Cinematic Universe as a whole), since Jeremiah was already cast as Nick Furynote War Machine is played by Smudge, who had already played Rhodey in the Iron Man parody, and who also plays Hawkeye - this is handwaved by both Smudges being identical cousins This is even lampshaded in dialogue:

Monica's Gang (Comic Book) / int_fdb6b8ad	type	The Magnificent
Monica's Gang (Comic Book) / int_fdb6b8ad	comment	The Magnificent: The three girls from the Pitangueiras neighbourhood are always referred to by their name, followed by one or more epithets befitting of their reputation. Penha The Dreaded is infamous for her uncanny manipulative skills and detestable personality. Agnes the Tenebrous (sometimes also called "the Shy Weirdo") frightens the other children due to her habit of mistreating animals, her socially awkward personality, and the fact she lives in a haunted house with her undead parents. Sofia the Terrible, the Tractor, the Dragon, the Cannon Fodder, is a perenially angry girl who intimidates the other children with her frown.

Monica's Gang (Comic Book) / int_fdbd6162	type	With Friends Like These...
Monica's Gang (Comic Book) / int_fdbd6162	comment	With Friends Like These...: In "Jujube's Disappearance", Smudge falls into a trash can that rolls downhill, collides with a truck and is sent flying into a coconut store. Monica laughs at the entire ordeal, while Jimmy takes advantage of his friend's unconsciousness to undress him and take pictures to blackmail him with later.

Monica's Gang (Comic Book) / int_fdc1e848	type	Will They or Won't They?
Monica's Gang (Comic Book) / int_fdc1e848	comment	Will They or Won't They?: There is also some argument as to Monica and Jimmy's relationship over this (pretty much since they are the only main characters without any kind of engagement). While, as kids, they never get together due to him not seeing her as more than just a friend (and, in the worst-case scenarios, he deems her too ugly to be date-able — she had made advances on him before), as teenagers, they go one step further, even though he is still too shy to admit it once and for all. So much so, that in one issue, it's Monica who takes it upon herself to have the initiative, by stealing a kiss from Jim. Though he runs away flustered (with her chasing him, "just like the old times"), one can see that deep down he liked it. However, Monica eventually grew tired of Jim's arrogant claims of "having to defeat her to date her"note (not quite Best Her to Bed Her, since there's no physical confrontation or sex involved, but it can be taken as a mild version) and she hitches up with Nick Nope, causing Jim to realize that it was his behavior that pushed Monica away from him.

Monica's Gang (Comic Book) / int_fdc4fab4	comment	Played straight with Vanilla, but averted with Blu and his friends, and also Lionel's Kingdom crew, who all use normal speaking bubbles. However, Vanilla can use the speaking bubbles as well, usually when interacting with other animals (though sometimes he uses the thinking bubbles even when interacting with other cats. It really depends on the writer). He once lampshaded this when talking to a human, saying that he only does it when it's necessary.

Monica's Gang (Comic Book) / int_feb1cd82	comment	Cut and Paste Comic: Stories that depict the characters in mundane situations often resort to copying and pasting panels, with minimal changes in the drawing to accomodate the dialogue. This practice became especially prevalent after the number of pages per comic book was doubled, thus enabling the comics to be published monthly without putting too much pressure on the art crew.

Monica's Gang (Comic Book) / int_ff17ccf1	type	Innocently Insensitive
Monica's Gang (Comic Book) / int_ff17ccf1	comment	Innocently Insensitive: Played with in "Jeremias: Pele". Jeremias' teacher tasks the students to pretend to have a certain job and write an essay on what they do for a living, then assigns a prestigious profession to every child except the Black protagonist, who is told to write a text about being a construction worker. When Jeremias brings this up at the end of the story, the teacher cringes in embarrassment as she realizes the unfortunate implications of her request, but the big twist is that Jeremias has come to the conclusion that his own negative feelings towards low-paying jobs are just as damaging as the racism that is ingrained in our society, and proudly states that he would never be ashamed to be a construction worker.

Monica's Gang (Comic Book) / int_fff67ce9	comment	Smudge's mom. One story had several of Smudge's friends falling hard for her because they see her with her hair down and wet as she was coming out of the shower. Smudge himself doesn't recognize her at first. Played for laughs, since she then ends up looking hideous, after styling her hair (badly) and putting on some (bad) make-up.
