Palette Swap | |
Books of Adam (Webcomic) / int_2557e3a9 | comment |
Palette Swap: Parodied in Palette Swapping. Adam comments that many games basically had palette swap characters as a symptom of Lazy Artist, before being confronted with a tanner, blonder version of him. | |

Books of Adam (Webcomic) / int_342f0ffa | comment |
Discriminate and Switch: "Arthur": The white woman with an American flag on her shirt is shocked beyond belief at the gay wedding scene from Arthur and takes to the streets... not because it's a gay wedding, but because Arthur is somehow still airing. | |

Reclusive Artist | |
Books of Adam (Webcomic) / int_6f679180 | comment |
Reclusive Artist: Played for laughs in "Grey Gardens" where it looks like the In-Universe artist has spent so many years away from civilization... only to find he's been smoking weed for three days. | |

Lousy Lovers Are Losers: One strip has a bored woman laying in bed, wondering aloud "When will death come?", only for the next panel to reveal The Grim Reaper is trying to give her oral sex, but failing badly at it. | |

Evil Counterpart | |
Books of Adam (Webcomic) / int_9b54d536 | comment |
Evil Counterpart: "Wahhhhhhhhh" converses this with Wario and Waluigi as Mario and Luigi's evil counterparts. Good thing there's no such thing as that in real life... Cue a pale, Waluigi-style Adam knockoff. | |

Mermaid Problem | |
Books of Adam (Webcomic) / int_9c88cfb | comment |
Mermaid Problem: In "The Facts of Life", a young mermaid (who resembles Ariel) asks her father (who resembles Triton) where babies come from. His answer is very fishlike: her mother laid thousands of eggs, most were eaten, and she was one of the few who survived. | |

Shout-Out | |
Books of Adam (Webcomic) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: Many strips reference pop culture in some way. "Arthur" references the gay wedding scene from, well, Arthur. "Lazy Boy" is about Sanrio's Gudetama. "Does it Spark Joy" is one to Tidying Up with Marie Kondo. "Fatality" stars Usagi and Luna from Sailor Moon. "Rapunzel, Rapunzel spoofs Tangled. "Infinity Stones" parodies Avengers: Infinity War. "What's that Pokemon" features Ash Ketchum catching... the Bubonic plague. "Sugar, Spice, and Everything Nice" spoofs The Powerpuff Girls's creation, but with petty things like "Can't do math" and "Drama Queen". "Twist Ending": The protagonist is a Sim, and the revelation is treated as something out of Black Mirror. | |

Tarot Troubles | |
Books of Adam (Webcomic) / int_d46bae01 | comment |
Tarot Troubles: In "Tarot Reading", Adam pulls the Death card and chuckles that at least it's not literal but then draws eight more Death cards. When he asks the tarot reader what this means she pulls out a dagger. | |

Books of Adam (Webcomic) / int_e888fbd8 | comment |
No Man Should Have This Power: "Heavy is the Head that Wears the Crown" has Adam try on the Super Crown to see what it's like to be Bowsette. He turns into a gender-swapped version of himself and realizes it's too much power. | |
