Whistles : The Starlight Calliope (often shortened to Whistles) is a comic-book made by Andrew Hussie between 2005 & 2007.The story follows the titular protagonist, a happy-go-lucky and extremely naive clown working on the Starlight Calliope circus as its main attraction until his ankle ended up broken in an accident. He ends up discovering a darker side to the circus and has to flee (tho, he didn’t really wanted). Ending up working as a male prostitute, he eventually returns to the circus. Things don’t go as they’re planned.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })The comic has 153 pages and has been printed, but it’s out of print since a long time. Fortunately, it’s available in various corners of the Internet (Bamboshu’ Unofficial Homestuck Collection has the entire comic-book in its Team Special Olympics section).

Ambiguously Human : In Chapter 3, while Doodlebean tries to escape the multiple versions of Pendlecoat, she ends up discovering that they all came from giant flowers. That casts a big doubt over Phineas’ true nature as a human.

Author Appeal : There’s clowns everywhere, something that will stay prevalent in Hussie’ body of work going forward.

An Arm and a Leg : In Chapter 2, Whistles amputate his own arm and give it to one of the Pendlecoat (who shot him in this very same arm) in order to provide him food. He regrows it later, but it’s a literal balloon arm (which surprises Gumblin).
