| History (Webcomic) | comment |
History is a webcomic created by Andy Evans, Emily Allom and Steven Olden, and was first published online in the January of 2007. The storyline follows the lives of multiple characters in the comics Universe, (known by the community as the UJ-verse) as their seemingly separate lives draw them ever closer together, through events and plot twists until they all end up together. The comic is the main continuity and backbone of the UJ-verse, hosted on Ultima Java: Creative Media. The hosting site has been discontinued. | |

Character Development | |
| History (Webcomic) / int_3b113b7 | comment |
Character Development: The whole point of History is the development of the characters and the emphasis of characterizations over other story telling elements. | |

Deus ex Machina | |
| History (Webcomic) / int_3fca462c | comment |
Deus ex Machina: Some critics believe that the very start of the History story is riddled with Deus Ex Machina, but Andy has frequently pointed out that the comic is in slow development, and the production rates are slower than many others, and just because the topic has no been approached thus far, does not mean that an event randomly appears, does it's job and is never mentioned again. Andy's nightmare at the start of First Step To a Thousand Miles seems to cop the most flack with this, but just because a character is only shown having the most recent nightmare, that opens up his eyes to discover that they are memories, does not mean that it was a one off event, and the comic goes on to say that he has had these dreams before. Though their significance is not yet fully realized, they are shown to be important when it is revealed that Jacob also has these dreams. | |

Author Appeal | |
| History (Webcomic) / int_6627695f | comment |
Author Appeal: The creators over time have had a tendency to add something of themselves to their characters. The most predominant features are colours. Andy Frogman's fondness of Purple, comes from his creator Andy Evans, and the same goes for Queen Qeeko's fondness of blue coming from the characters creator Emily Allom. | |

Author Avatar | |
| History (Webcomic) / int_66755d29 | comment |
Author Avatar: All the characters that are in History were first and foremost characters that the authors used on online forums, long before the idea of History was even a spark of inspiration. Andy went by the name Frogman on an old sprite forum, while Emily and Steve went by the name Queen Qeeko and Stephanos respectively, on NPF and continued o use those characters on the RP and sprite comic forum Slightly Out of Order. After the creation of the UJ-verse based comics, the character have progressively developed to differ from their real life counterparts. This major split is the difference between the UJ-verse versions and the Forumverse' versions of the same characters. The Universe 2'' versions however were created to continue the story of what happened to the members after Slightly Out of Order disbanded, these character versions inured no further development. | |

Anti-Hero | |
| History (Webcomic) / int_beb9a361 | comment |
Anti-Hero: Stephanos is probably the closest thing to an Anti-Hero in History. He has a no nonsence attitude in battle and has no qualms about killing, which is highly contrasting to Andy, who reveres all life even that of the series villains. | |

Fan Nickname: The Angel in ''The First Step to A Thousand Miles, has never been named and never referred to as anything more than an Angel, however, the belief came about that he was some kind of Archangel and from that the Nickname "Archie" was coined. The name has stuck in the fandom, despite only appearing in a few pages of the first chapter. | |

Functional Magic | |
| History (Webcomic) / int_dfe120e5 | comment |
Functional Magic: As defined by the Word of God on the forums, there is a set cosmology that has been planned out which explains fully how Majick works and it's effects in the UJ-verse. However the Cosmology does leave room for the effects of other Non-Majick, but majick-in-appearance-only, referred to by the acronym MIAO (said Meow). | |

Art Evolution | |
| History (Webcomic) / int_e43c66bd | comment |
Art Evolution: Over the years that History has been running, the quality of the artwork has been increasing gradually, but usually the significant changes that are developed gradually are implemented between chapters. This is plain to see in the flattening of the chins from First Step To A Thousand Miles to Tip Of A Quill", and the addition of hand drawn backgrounds in Learning Curve'' compared to modified photos from the previous chapters. | |

Battle Aura | |
| History (Webcomic) / int_e6eafde0 | comment |
Battle Aura: From where the effects in History start to increase in quality, there have been a few Battle Auras. The way Majick works in the UJ-verse, an aura is not always present, except for when spells are being charged or if they require a lot of energy to cast. Andy has a power within himself that shows as a purple Aura around his swords when fighting. Though Qeeko herself has not been shown to glow when she is casting majick, however what she touches does tend to glow blue. Miso is seen in A Deviant Cause to have a green glow when healing. Zhan is first seen in A Deviant Cause with blue flaming aura, however as the effects improved in Learning Curve, he has has a frosty misty aura when he's charging his Cryomancy. | |
