Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })The Ludocrats is a comic book written by Kieron Gillen and Jim Rossignol, illustrated by Jeff Stokely with color by Tamra Bonvillain. It tells the story of Baron Otto von Subertan and Professor Hades Zero-k, two of the titular Ludocrats, who now find that their world is becoming less ludicrous and many of their contemporaries have gone missing.One of these things is far more concerning than the other, of course. Kidnappings and murders happen all the time, but ludicrousness is important.The series was very much a labor of love for Gillen and Rossignol - it's rooted in characters and situations the two authors wrote into fictional letters in 2002, when they were both working as journalists. It was announced as a comic in 2015. And it was finally released, via Image Comics, in 2020.The first issue was released 20 May 2020.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })

Art Shift: In the final issue, after Pardy purges the universe of ludicrousness. The art shifts to black and white, with a far more realistic style for a few pages. And then Otto and Hades get bored of that, so return to smash it up.

Big Bad: Pardius Haemoglandulum von Subertan, Hyper-Pope and Supreme Ludocrat is behind the deaths and conspiracy. Although he’s more of a Well-Intentioned Extremist, and once he explains his motives to Hades and his brother Otto, they seem to view him as the Big Good again.

Blue-and-Orange Morality: The Ludocrats exemplify this. Good? Bad? Who cares! Meaningless measures! But is it ludicrous and original? If so, it’s admirable.

Cain and Abel: Otto is a cheerfully murderous, lusty brute with a huge collection of axes. His brother Pardy is the hyper-pope. And Pardy’s the Cain in this analogy, as he’s the one who’s been killing Ludocrats and plotting to homogenise reality.
