Lackadaisy (Webcomic) | comment |
Lackadaisy (Webtoons mirror) is a webcomic created by Tracy J. Butler, chronicling the exploits of a criminal crew in The Roaring '20s struggling to keep their speakeasy up and running.The place: St. Louis, Missouri. The time: 1927. The problem: With national prohibition laws in effect, the world of spirits and alcohol has been forced to move underground, starting a massive network of rum-running and speakeasies under the very noses of the authorities. One of the most successful of these speakeasies was the titular Lackadaisy, an exclusive club built within the limestone caverns beneath the unassuming Little Daisy Cafe and founded by one Atlas May, which may only be entered by those sporting Lackadaisy's unique Clubs lapel pin. For a while, Lackadaisy was the place to be for those wishing to partake in drink, but all this came crashing down when Atlas was violently murdered in 1926. Atlas' wife Mitzi May was left with the reins, but the controversy surrounding his death, including the rumor that Mitzi herself was involved, caused a sharp decline in both staffing and customers. Meanwhile, Lackadaisy's main rivals, the Marigolds gang, have started making their resurgence, aided by not only former Lackadaisy employees, but also several other unsavory characters who have no qualms getting their hands bloody.Amid all this is our Lovable Rogue protagonist Roark "Rocky" Rickaby, a jazz violinist turned whiskey and gin runner for Lackadaisy. He's a bit eccentric, to say the least. Wild escapades abound as Rocky struggles to do right by Mitzi, the only person 'kind' enough to give him a job in these tough times. Joining him on these less-than-legal adventures are his young cousin Calvin 'Freckle' McMurray, a quiet, earnest youth rejected from the police force because of his, er, enthusiasm, and longtime Lackadaisy 'employee' Viktor Vasko, a surly, grizzled one-eyed Slovak with bad knees. Rounding out the cast are Sedgewick 'Wick' Sable, mining magnate and Mitzi's current paramour; Ivy Pepper, Atlas's goddaughter and Lackadaisy hanger-on; Mordecai Heller, an overly bookish (and equally sociopathic) Marigold triggerman; and Dorian 'Zib' Zibowski, the sardonic saxophonist.Oh, and they're all anthropomorphic cats. But in spite of that fact, Lackadaisy is very much a tongue-in-cheek affair with a serious plot line and strong characterizations, accompanied by artwork of a high professional level, which has gotten more impressive throughout its run.The comic has received physical print publications, so far receiving two volumes as well as an art book featuring never before seen material titled Lackadaisy Essentials, published by the Chicago-based Iron Circus Comics, with Volumes 1 and 2 also being published in Italy through ReNoir Comics.In March of 2020, Iron Circus launched a Kickstarter campaign to fund a online animated short to be produced by its newly founded animation branch, as well as the aforementioned Lackadaisy Essentials, reaching its goal within six hours. Featuring the talents of several well-known voice actors, most notably Michael Kovach as Rocky and SungWon Cho, aka ProZD, as Mordecai, it was eventually released on Youtube on March 29, 2023 under the title "Lackadaisy (Pilot)"On July 25, 2023, Iron Circus launched a Backerkit campaign to provide funding for a five-episode first season of a full animated adaptation of the comic, with the season being fully funded within a week, tentatively set to start premiering in 2024. The campaign concluded on August 24, 2023, with $2,008,728 raised, with the promised stretch goals of including 3 mini-episodes, exclusive blu-rays and community plush polls. Since then, several vignettes have been published on the Lackadaisy Youtube channel, with the first mini-episode planned to come out in May 2024.Now has a character page. Please put all character related tropes there. | |

Lackadaisy (Webcomic) / int_11e0d645 | comment |
Arc Symbol: Playing cards. The logo for the speakeasy is a club, and pictures in the gallery section of the site sometimes features cards. Later, a card game featuring the characters became available. Rivers. In volume 1, Rocky composes an ode to the Mississippi River. Captain Kehoe pilots a barge along the river. In volume 3, Mordecai suggests that the Savoys dispose of the bodies of Gracie's henchmen in the river. While reciting a spontaneous poem, Rocky appears as a skeleton submerged in a river. Scars. After the Arbogasts strike him with their vehicle, Rocky has a scar down the middle of his forehead. Serafine carves a scar into Mordecai's chest when he refuses to join the Maitre Carrefour cult. | |

Conflicting Loyalties: When Mordecai shows reluctance to join the Car Chase Shootout, his underling Serafine lightly accuses him of getting sentimental on the job, which he proceeds to prove wrong by shooting at Rocky. But when he finally lines up another, better shot at Lackdaisy's rear window and locks eyes with a frightened getaway driver Ivy, he doesn't take the shot. | |

Lackadaisy (Webcomic) / int_14180452 | comment |
Instantly Proven Wrong: At the speakeasy, when Rocky mentions out that "the car is fine", then Ivy chirps "[she] fixed it!", the camera cuts to said car in the Little Daisy garage... which promptly collapses entirely, with a small fire starting in the engine compartment a mere instant before the camera cuts away. note In Ivy's defense, she was likely referring to when she patched up the radiator with her sleeves. Shortly thereafter, when Rocky points out that his violin survived their "adventure" unscathed, one string promptly snaps. | |

Lackadaisy (Webcomic) / int_16364a29 | comment |
Evil Sounds Deep: While he's not "evil" per se, Freckle's dark side has a noticeably more aggressive voice, which is best shown when, after he accidentally scares Ivy, he apologizes to her in both voices one after the other. Asa Sweet, Mordecai’s boss and the leader of the Marigold gang, has a deep rolling voice to complement his stature and authoritative presence. | |

Furries Are Easier to Draw | |
Lackadaisy (Webcomic) / int_183aadaf | comment |
Furries Are Easier to Draw: A reason for why the cast are felines, according to Tracy. Not that she can't draw humans. The cast as humans translate incredibly well. And normal animals. It's not so much "easier" as "zanier for cartoon The Roaring '20s antics". invoked Word of God is that she also thought cartoony cat faces were more expressive. She may have a point as when she draws the cast as humans, she shows an inclination to do so with stunning realism. Proof the cat faces are more expressive? Check out "Lackadaisy Expressions" — Tracy's attempt to deliver advice on drawing a multitude of facial expressions, filled with examples utilizing a number of the strip's characters. The range of expressions and emotions is absolutely astounding. Not to mention the option of fluffing up a cat's tail if s/he's frightened by something, or moving the ears to show interest or displeasure. | |

A Father to His Men | |
Lackadaisy (Webcomic) / int_19d06ef7 | comment |
A Father to His Men: Atlas is turning out to be dark subversion of this trope. According to Zib, Atlas had a habit of collecting strays and offering them work and relative safety as his employees. (He helped to get Viktor a lawyer and shorter prison sentence after his arrest and basically paid off Mordecai's angry pursuers from New York and gave him the shirt off his back, literally). However, as much he 'saved' his employees, Atlas did still indenture them into a life of violent crime. | |

Lackadaisy (Webcomic) / int_19fc58a2 | comment |
A Lighter Shade of Black: Let's not sugarcoat it. The Lackadaisy gang may be funny and lovable, but they're still murdering, thieving bootleggers. However, compared to the Marigold Gang, whose ranks include Mordecai Heller (who, let's face it, is the worst of the bunch — though it's worth noting he used to work for the former), they come off as much more sympathetic and easier to root for. | |

Lackadaisy (Webcomic) / int_1a68856b | comment |
Cats Hate Water: When faced with a sudden tsunami from a ruptured water tower, Consummate Professional Mordecai, heretofore The Straight Man and thoroughly above the hijinks surrounding him, gives a comically extreme Furry Reminder complete with goggle-eyed hissing, rearing backward and rigidly pressing against a shed to avoid the waves. Played With though, as the comic makes it very clear that he’s just obsessive-compulsive about cleanliness and order. | |

Soft Glass: In spite of so many car windows being shot out during the chase, neither the Lackadaisy crew nor the Marigolds appear to have been injured by any of the shards. Not even Freckle, whose clinging to the open door during the getaway must have brought his arm into contact with the shattered door window, nor Nicodeme who actually got part of his windscreen in his mouth (see Swallowed a Fly). | |

The Caper | |
Lackadaisy (Webcomic) / int_1b65eaf3 | comment |
The Caper: The plot revolves around a Caper Crew of Venturous Smugglers executing a whiskey run for Lackadaisy Speakeasy, with several complications presenting themselves. Firstly, their funeral home supplier operates via Coffin Contraband which they must dig up on the outskirts of a cemetary after decoding an obituary's Cypher Language. Secondly, they're operating in the territory of rival Marigold Gang and poaching that supplier, necessitating stealth and discretion to avoid getting caught on enemy turf. Thirdly, they fail rather spectacularly at that last part, and find themselves on the wrong end of a Car Chase Shootout with Marigold's top three Hired Guns. | |

Visual Pun: Asa Sweet is an overweight feline who wields a great deal of power in the St. Louis crime world. He's literally and figuratively a fat cat. While inside Gracie's pool hall, Mordecai locates Gracie's hidden speakeasy when he noticed smoke escaping from behind a picture of two cabaret girls. The girls in the picture were literally and figuratively smoking hot. In "Lackadaisy Preview 0029", Mordecai is wearing a tuxedo, which is fitting because he's a tuxedo cat. | |

Stealth Pun: While dragging a coffin full of whisky to their car, Freckle complains about "rilin' up spirits" (read: ghosts), to which Rocky stating "the spirits are all bottled up" references the aforementioned whisky. A twofer when one of their whisky bottles "escapes". First, Rocky uses "the spirits are afoot", which normally refers to ghosts, to refer to the stray bottle, then when Freckle accidentally grabs Rocky's actual foot, the latter is quick to lampshade this fact. | |

Caper Crew: Ragtag Bunch of Misfits they may be, but Lackadaisy's trio of booze-runners manages to just scrape by The Leader and senior booze-runner is Rocky, flighty and prone to exploiting his two New Meat compatriots for labor, but nonetheless a canny improvisor and The Scrounger, good for finding what his fellows need just when they need it, especially weapons. The muscle and team gunner is his babyfaced young cousin Freckle, The Drag-Along who becomes The Berserker when given a gun. The Getaway Driver is Ivy, a self-taught driver and amateur Wrench Wench who's inexperience actually serves her, since when she Drives Like Crazy it throws their pursuers for a loop. | |

Furry Confusion | |
Lackadaisy (Webcomic) / int_27a40541 | comment |
Furry Confusion: Averted. The only animals shown to be anthropomorphic are the cats, and there's never been a non-anthro cat. Likewise, other animals are never shown to be anthropomorphic. "Pets? Who said there were pets? No one knows anything about any pets." Tracy confirms that cats are basically just stand-ins for humans, and that as far as non-feline pets and animals, everything is the same as it would be normally. She also says that there won't be as much emphasis on this in the comics (other than the aforementioned pig farmers) so not to add another layer of absurdity to the series. In fact, when a fan asked for the cast's breeds, she only answered with "Cat". The closest would be Mordecai being a tuxedo cat as a pun on his attire.

Bilingual Bonus | |
Lackadaisy (Webcomic) / int_294ed981 | comment |
Bilingual Bonus: Rocky jokingly reading labels on whiskey bottles to Lackadaisy's patrons in this strip : the names he gives out are, respectively, "disgusting brown gunk" or "rancid rat water". Which, from the sound of it, is what the booze tastes like. Most of Mrs. Bapka's dialog is in Slovak. When translated into English, it can be a source of humor. For example, in a side comic in which Rocky is testing the characters' huggability, Mrs. Bapka hugs his face while asking, "Who are you?". | |

Two Guys and a Girl: Rocky, Freckle, and Mitzi seemed to be the first characters thought of and designed. The initial proto-sketches and artwork were mostly images of the three of them getting into wacky criminal hijinks together. Though Tracey now admits it would be dreadfully out of character for Mitzi these days. Lackadaisy's current bootlegging team consists of Rocky, Freckle, and Ivy. A team consisting of Mordecai, Serafine, and Nico carries out dirty work for the Marigold gang. | |

Not Helping Your Case | |
Lackadaisy (Webcomic) / int_33f1c576 | comment |
Not Helping Your Case: Mitzi here, dear God. In the two side comics asking Viktor and Ivy, and Viktor and Mordecai, what they think about their respective shippers, Ivy and Mordecai's reactions probably only serve to fan the flames (likely deliberate on Tracy's part). Ivy handles it gracefully, and cheerfully goes over why she and Viktor couldn't work; which is quite convincing, except that in each panel she's being just as much of a Cuddle Bug as usual: Grabbing his face to demonstrate how grumpy he is, trying (unsuccessfully) to put her arms around him to demonstrate the "logistical problems", and wrapping herself in his coat while saying "I just keep him around on account of he's warm in winter". While Mordecai's priceless reaction suggests that maybe he doth protest too much. | |

Rule of Cool: The artist has a penchant for drawing Wick dramatically brandishing a revolver. She admits that he would have no idea how to use one, but it makes him look debonair. The same happens to Rocky, who, in an attempt to look "pretty dashing" in one of the early comic previews, promptly manages to shoot part of his ear off. Tracey admits that although Zib plays both the saxophone and the clarinet in the band, he is never pictured with a clarinet due to his own vanity at playing the "sexyphone". Cast members sometimes wear zoot suits, despite those being slightly anachronistic. | |

Five-Second Foreshadowing | |
Lackadaisy (Webcomic) / int_381855db | comment |
Five-Second Foreshadowing: In the cemetery, the arrival of Marigold's car is hinted at a few seconds earlier when the car's darkened silhouette appears in front of Lackadaisy's car. In the quarry, Rocky discovers an unattended steam shovel and a massive cache of dynamite right before using it to rescue Ivy and Freckle from Marigold. When Rocky imagines (hallucinates?) the explosives shed as being a circus tent, the unseen barker shouting "Watch the world's most idiotic stuntman ride an elephant through a flaming gauntlet of-" references Rocky's near-future rampage. note World's most idiotic stuntman -> Rocky, elephant -> Steam Shovel, flaming gauntlet -> repeated explosions. As Rocky's manic, carnival-themed pseudo-poem reaches the "you can brandish up your whip and chair" line, a water tower can be seen in the background. Right as he finishes said "poem", a carelessly thrown explosive bounces off said water tower and comes back at him, cutting his rampage short there and then. | |

Change the Uncomfortable Subject: Rocky tends to pull these when people try to dig into his past. In "Hallelujah" when Zib asks Rocky how he got into the rum-running business, Rocky appears to begin answering, only for him to suddenly call attention to a broken string on his fiddle. In "Look-see," when Calvin tries to question Rocky over the latter telling Ivy about "the past", Rocky only says that he thought he only dreamed telling Ivy before commenting on the "Beflowered Malafactors from the Crossroad" (Fish and Wes). | |

Alternate Continuity: The Pilot provides an alternative introduction to the world and its characters while also serving as a standalone story. In this canon, Rocky, Freckle and Ivy are already actively working together on gin runs, the Funeral Home has already signed on to deal with Lackadaisy, and Rocky's feud with the hillbillies is traded for a Car Chase shootout with Mordecai and the Savoys; the events also occur much later than where the comic currently is date-wise. The actual series will be a more direct adaptation of the comic with some minor changes and Adaptation Expansion. | |

After finding an unattended steam shovel (basically the precursor to the modern excavator), then eyeing a cache of explosives, he really goes off the deep end. | |

Lackadaisy (Webcomic) / int_4c30f8f0 | comment |
Twitchy Eye: Freckle, fearful of his other side, gets one when Rocky gives him the partially-dismantled components of a tommy-gun. As the Lackadaisy trio are leaving the quarry, Rocky slaps a (thankfully unlit) stick of dynamite onto Freckle's chest, to which Freckle responds by frantically throwing it out his window as if it was about to explode at that very second, then gives this look as he tries to calm down. Mitzi's "reaction" to a shot of tainted whiskey includes a small eye-twitch. | |

Construction Vehicle Rampage | |
Lackadaisy (Webcomic) / int_4c7e3b7 | comment |
Construction Vehicle Rampage: Rocky's contribution to the quarry fight is to commandeer a steam shovel, put a sack full of dynamite into the bucket, jam the controls, then climb up in the bucket and start randomly lobbing lit sticks onto the ground below. Unfortunately, his rampage is cut short after one of those sticks ends up bouncing back into the dynamite-filled bucket, just as the steam shovel heads toward the quarry water tower. | |

Humanoid Female Animal | |
Lackadaisy (Webcomic) / int_4c977bea | comment |
Humanoid Female Animal: The female cats have human-like head hair, and the males have only hints of hair. Justified; short hair for men was the standard back then. As Nico's head fur is longer than that of the other male cats, we can assume males would have equally human-like hair if they'd just grow it out. The boys have hair of varying lengths in this side comic, for example. It's not just the hair; Mitzi's facial features are notably less feline in appearance than any of the other characters'. Recent pages has shown Rocky growing his hair out a little, ostensibly to hide the nasty scar he got from his encounter with the hearse. | |

Improvised Weapon: Viktor, naturally, is the undisputed champion of this trope in the comic. He's knocked out someone with a car door, whacked people with heavy whisky bottles, and laid the smackdown on a rival gang with only a crowbar, for starters. Mordecai comes in a close second — he's thought quickly enough to kill someone with a fragmented wood bannister. | |

Throwing Your Gun Always Works: Zib demonstrates. Though it was established beforehand that he's quite inexperienced with firearms. Given that the pistol in question was a .25 caliber Beretta (and his total lack of gun-kata), Zib could probably do more damage by throwing it rather than firing it. Freckle, on the other hand... | |

Bookends | |
Lackadaisy (Webcomic) / int_53224e46 | comment |
Bookends: Multiple sets. Barring The Stingers, the story opens and closes on Lackadaisy Speakeasy's doors and stage, preceding and following characters' glamourous Fantasy Sequences. It begins on Lackadaisy's doors opening to reveal its empty stage, with the curtain rising on violinist Rocky performing a glittery, golden, lavishly staged Disney Acid Sequence, eventually revealed as his Daydream Surprise while neglecting lookout duties on a bridge. It ends with the band beginning to play as Lackadaisy's owner Mitzi shuts her eyes, envisions her husband's hand on her shoulder, then opens them to real they've filled with stars. A wash of glitter reveals her gold-hued fantasy of the stage and speakeasy filled with people, and the camera pulls out until the speakeasy doors shut. The Stingers also mirror the opening in different ways. The first has sparks from Asa Sweet's cigar float downward during a Fade to Black to the sounds of smouldering ash, while the earliest moments of the opening have glowing dust motes floating into a darkened frame as a distant train horn blows. The second, a double-still of a horrified Wick Sable, mirrors the sepia-tint and faux-scratched film initially seen on the Lackadaisy stage before color fades in and the curtain rises on Rocky. | |

No Honor Among Thieves: Several characters betray their former associates for personal gain. Asa Sweet was a close friend of the Mays while Atlas was alive. After Atlas' death, he has no moral qualms about trying to destroy the Lackadaisy or putting Mitzi and her staff in danger. Mordecai was devoted to Atlas and worked closely with Viktor. After Atlas' death, Mordecai kneecapped Viktor, defected to the Marigold gang, and stole weapons on behalf of Asa Sweet from the Lackadaisy armory. | |

There Was a Door: Two examples back-to-back: When the Lackadaisy crew first reach the quarry, they're initially on-course for the entrance, only to turn toward the "Sable Stone and Quarry" sign right next to it.note Knowing Rocky and his dislike for Wick, not to mention the manic grin he gives before veering, he likely did this on purpose. Mere seconds after demolishing the sign (and the fence it was attached to), Ivy crashes their car into a shed in which the only available entrance isn't even on the same wall as the one the car hits. | |

Lackadaisy (Webcomic) / int_62f9d08e | comment |
Freeze-Frame Bonus: The fake obituary is basically impossible to read in time before the scene changes. If one pauses the video, they can read the unfortunate tale of how the recently deceased was untangled from the steel propeller of a steamboat, all a lie of course. Rocky's failed cactus gift for Mitzi (which was first seen in a one-off comic and later in the main comic) makes a cameo in the short. The disturbing cactus can be seen briefly, while Rocky is digging around in the car for a gun. When taking his first shot, Mordecai’s glasses show Rocky, showing who he intends to kill. Ivy gets the same treatment before he lets her go. | |

Robbing the Dead: We open the short on the Lackadaisy crew unearthing a coffin, given directions from their Funeral Home supplier in the form of a fake obituary. They express concerns that they might have to apologize to the family of a disinterred corpse if they've gotten it wrong. | |

Sommelier Speak | |
Lackadaisy (Webcomic) / int_6a58cb64 | comment |
Sommelier Speak: After apparently being unaffected by the "less palatable" elements of the Lackadaisy's newest acquisition, Wick then subsequently uses a downplayed form of this to deduce the origin of the aftertaste. While she could just be trying to save face after an unintended Spit Take, Ivy describes it as having a "sophisticated flavor" before offering it to Freckle, who growls at the notion. | |

Lackadaisy (Webcomic) / int_6a7fe2ed | comment |
Caught Monologuing: Implied. During Rocky's self-indulgent workshopping of his lengthy Purple Prose poetry when he's supposed to be on lookout duty, he yells loud enough for his voice to audibly echo ("To challenge titans come before!") while playing a loud flourish, just as a car can be seen and heard passing under the bridge. If the Marigold enforcers weren't already patrolling the cemetary, Rocky's resonant bellowing as they drove by just provided incentive to do so, with the headlamps off. | |

Oh, Crap, There Are Fanfics of Us!: Mordecai, Ivy, and Viktor were made aware they have shippers. Ivy took it gracefully, Mordecai not so much, and Viktor's reactions ranged from stoic silence (when paired with Ivy) to uproarious laughter (when paired with Mordecai). When it was mentioned to Rocky that he might have fangirls, he was thrilled. | |

Tracy confirms that cats are basically just stand-ins for humans, and that as far as non-feline pets and animals, everything is the same as it would be normally. She also says that there won't be as much emphasis on this in the comics (other than the aforementioned pig farmers) so not to add another layer of absurdity to the series. In fact, when a fan asked for the cast's breeds, she only answered with "Cat". The closest would be Mordecai being a tuxedo cat as a pun on his attire. There's also speculation that Viktor is a Siberian because of his huge size. | |

Dysfunction Junction: Rocky's a rollercoaster of ups and downs. Freckle's a bundle of anxiety and vague and lingering dysphoria, with intermittent outbursts of…something. Mitzi's perhaps not dealing with the grieving process in the healthiest of fashions, or she's trying to evade it altogether. Not that he's ever been the most jovial of fellows, but Viktor is doing some wallowing lately. Elsa scarcely ventures outside. Wick and Zib seem to be looking for chemical solutions to melancholia. Mordecai's a sociopath with a gaping hole where his soul should be. | |

Angry Animalistic Growl | |

Angry Animalistic Growl: When Rocky inadvertently starts swishing his tail in Freckle's face the second time, Freckle responds with a small, buzzing noise akin to the kind of "growl" you might hear from an angry housecat. Freckle lets out a feral, pantherine growl at Ivy after she asks him if he's ok. Though in his defense, it was a knee-jerk reaction and not deliberate anger. Viktor gives a low, rolling growl to a few Lackadaisy patrons when Mitzi asks him to smile. Freckle growls at Ivy again shortly after Viktor's growl, though this time it's a more feline growl made in response to her offering him a glass of Sunset Rose Cocktail after she herself had spat it out immediately prior. | |

Black-and-Gray Morality: Nobody in this story is blameless. The protagonists can be nice, they can be funny, and they are certainly usually better than the villains of the story, but let's get a few things straight: just about everyone in the story (including every protagonist) is a criminal of some description, and over half of them have killed. Even Freckle. Especially Freckle. Even Mrs. Bapka (Viktor's upstairs neighbor) is a hardened criminal, who stuffed sardines down her kitchen drain before the widespread adaptation of garbage disposals. Though we've yet to see Lacy mixed up in any wrongdoings, time will only tell if this remains the case. | |

Cool Car | |
Lackadaisy (Webcomic) / int_8a295a46 | comment |
Cool Car: By dint of merely existing in The Roaring '20s, the cars are cool by association. The Lackadaisy runners' Fordor is modeled after an (admittedly slightly anachronistic) 1928 Ford Model A while the Marigold Gang rides in a 1927 Cadillac Series 314A Though Marigold's is appropriately swankier and has more horsepower, they're both considered classics. | |

Lackadaisy (Webcomic) / int_8aa0f76 | comment |
At least half the dynamite Rocky throws out of a steam shovel bucket is done without the slightest care for where it lands, which is exactly how one stick comes back at him by way of bouncing off a water tower leg, necessitating a hasty leap from the dynamite-filled bucket, just before the shovel hits the tower. | |

Deconstruction: Of 1920s speakeasy life. Those fun, lively speakeasies were stocked by bootleggers who engaged in bloodshed. The liquor at speakeasies was sometimes adulterated with poisonous substances which could sicken drinkers. | |

Artistic License – Medicine | |
Lackadaisy (Webcomic) / int_8d6d9535 | comment |
Artistic License – Medicine: After receiving a serious head injury, Rocky is strong enough to walk around St. Louis the following morning and clear-headed enough to carry out a bootlegging run with Freckle and Ivy the following night. In real life, Rocky would have been out of commission for much longer than one night. Rocky leaves his stitched-up head injury unbandaged the next day and repeatedly gets it wet in the rain. In real life, both of these would be huge no-nos with a stitched-up laceration, as they would greatly increase the chances of an infection. | |

Crazy Enough to Work: Rocky's steam shovel rampage indirectly saves Ivy and Freckle from their respective demises by being so grand and distracting that the Marigold trio immediately turn their attention toward him, allowing Ivy and Freckle to repair their car in (relative) peace. Heck, if not for the water tower, Rocky very likely could've killed - or at least routed - the Marigold trio. | |

Ripping Off the String of Pearls | |
Lackadaisy (Webcomic) / int_90839b9d | comment |
Ripping Off the String of Pearls: During an argument Zib grabs Mitzi's pearl necklace, and when Mitzi pulls away, the necklace breaks, and the pearls go everywhere. The necklace was a cherished gift from her late husband — the first thing he ever gave her, in fact — so she scrambles to pick them up before they roll away in the street; and when a hobo tries to steal one, she wrestles him so hard for it that she ends up kicking him in the chin. Early the next morning she can be seen at her desk trying to put the necklace back together, looking like she hasn't slept a wink. | |

A-Team Firing | |
Lackadaisy (Webcomic) / int_964ea66c | comment |
A-Team Firing: A lot of bullets are spent, on both sides, but nobody seems to hit anyone. Even all the dynamite thrown by Rocky causes nothing but property damage. The only significant injury anyone receives is when Mordecai grazes Freckle with a ricochet. Notably the characters all take immediately take cover when under fire, but the usefulness of this varies by the direction of fire (Freckle shoots alongside the side of the Marigold car, which the characters dodge but the bullets should have gone through the door.) | |

Acting Out a Daydream | |
Lackadaisy (Webcomic) / int_9e8e5e8f | comment |
Acting Out a Daydream: The show begins as the curtain rises on a violin-accompanied Purple Prose poem by speakeasy violinist Rocky, who recites an ode to the Mississippi River on a golden Art Deco bridge with a treble staff for a deck, while his violin emits sparkles, and glowing daisies fill the sky. As he finishes, these filigrees fade away, and fellow runner Ivy waves a flashlight in his startled face and mockingly imitates him, to scold him for being off in his own head, rather than acting as team lookout. | |

Counting Bullets: Mordecai verbally whispers a count of the latter three shots of Freckle's six-round pocket-pistol, (implying a mental count beforehand) and waits for the sound of Freckle dry firing before grazing him with a ricochet. He very well could've killed him if not for Rocky's timely arrival. | |

Furry Reminder | |
Lackadaisy (Webcomic) / int_a1d3ebd7 | comment |
Furry Reminder: In addition to the common sights like ear movements and tail floofs, the pilot gives us plenty of more overt moments: After the main trio uncover the coffin full of whisky, when Rocky (seemingly unknowingly) starts swishing his tail in Freckle's face, the latter bats at it like a cat, even making a perturbed meow. And when an incidental change of position causes Rocky to let off, Freckle looks at him with a suitably feline "how dare you" kind of look while holding his hands (paws?) close to his chest like he's about to "bat" Rocky in the face. As they're carrying said coffin to their car, each individual swish of Rocky's big, fluffy tail is realistically audible. Immediately after the above, the untimely passing of a train causes Ivy to leap four feet into the air, not unlike a frightened housecat. As they're loading the whisky into their car's trunk, Rocky "swishes" Freckle again, though as the latter has an armload of bottles, his only response is to wave off Rocky's tail like a bug while growling to himself. When Rocky, in an attempt to locate a stray bottle, tries to slip under Freckle, the two get into a brief cat-fight (no, not a Cat Fight, an actual brawl) that's only halted when Ivy notices that their "spotlight" is another car. At the quarry, Mordecai reacts to an impromptu tsunaminote Long story short, Rocky blew up a water tower by hissing at it before taking cover behind a shed. Mordecai also does a little tail flip every time he doesn't land a shot as successfully as he wanted, and his ears twitch when he's annoyed. After Ivy does a Spit Take, then offers her drink to Freckle, he responds with a short chirp, then steps back with a low growl, which the captions refer to as "cat trill" and "upset cat trill", respectively. | |

Bottomless Magazines: Played straight for Serafine's rifle, which is fired full-auto for almost the entire pilot without running dry, despite having a pitiful 20-round magazine. In fact, during the cemetery scene alone, she clearly fires way more than 20 rounds without ever reloading, and if she does reload at any point, we're never privy to it. Averted for both Freckle's Thompson and the tiny pistol he digs out of their seat, which both run out of ammo relatively fast. Unknown for Mordecai's pistol and Nico's revolver, which are never fired enough times to deplete their ammo to begin with. | |

Epic Fail | |
Lackadaisy (Webcomic) / int_b4eff8a8 | comment |
Epic Fail: Rocky's absurd attempt at a Big Damn Heroes moment does save his friends' lives, but he almost blows himself up, blows up the steam shovel, blows up a water tower, and causes an impromptu tsunami that completely wrecks the quarry. The events of the short also leave the Lackadaisy team with only three surviving Canadian whiskey bottles to sell out of several dozen. | |

Lackadaisy (Webcomic) / int_b53077b3 | comment |
In that same section she mentions having eyebrow privileges taken away. Possibly a Take That! at Tom Preston, who is know for odd usage of eyebrows in his comics, usually along with smarmy faces. One section of that expressions tutorial looks like it's specifically referencing a certain famous webcomic notorious for its bland, generic expressions. Another section of that expressions tutorial seems to be specifically referencing another famous webcomic notorious for its use of Cheeky Mouth and snout shaped noses. | |

Dysfunctional Family | |
Lackadaisy (Webcomic) / int_b6cc7fc0 | comment |
Dysfunctional Family: Oh boy, where to start...All is not well in the McMurray/Rickaby family. Even before Rocky took the blame for....something so bad that it caused him to be kicked out of the only place he truly considered home, there were still plenty of issues besetting them. Rocky's mother died at some point from tuberculosis, and Rocky mentions that his father is "working on the railroad" which pretty much is another way of saying he's out of the picture and is unable or doesn't care enough to return home and take care of his son. As a result, Rocky's only real parental figure is his aunt Nina, a dour and oppressively devout Irish Catholic. On top of this is poor Calvin, Rocky's cousin and Nina's son, who, while at first seeming an earnest and timid kid just trying to get into the police force, has a rather...violent side whenever he gets his hands on a gun, a trait that made him wash out of the police tryouts almost immediately. Still, despite all this, the family still seems to care about one another, with Nina allowing Rocky to hang out with Calvin and washing his clothes on request (if begrudgingly), showing that there is some silver lining behind all the trouble. | |

Lackadaisy (Webcomic) / int_bb2d4227 | comment |
Cast Full of Crazy: Where do we start? Rocky was manic and reckless from the start, and his head injury in volume 2 has only exacerbated his mental instability. Freckle succumbs to murderous rage in dangerous situations. Mordecai is a sociopath who is devoid of warmth, empathy, or mercy. Serafine is another sociopath with a sadistic streak, and if she truly believes in Maitre Carrefour, is living in a fantasy world. Her brother Nico isn't much better. Wick is an insomniac who works too hard, drinks too much, and is haunted by the ghost of a dead duck. | |

Artistic License – Pharmacology | |
Lackadaisy (Webcomic) / int_ca68d759 | comment |
Artistic License – Pharmacology: When Mordecai unwittingly sips Rocky's "space coffee", he immediately experiences dilated pupils and hallucinations. In real life, orally-administered hallucinogens take several minutes to absorb and produce hallucinations. Also, Mordecai takes one sip of the "coffee" and immediately spits it out, meaning that he only swallowed a few drops of the liquid at best. Unless the liquid contained a massive amount of a hallucinogenic drug, Mordecai wouldn't have consumed enough of the active ingredient to experience effects. Then again, given the gags about his consumption of mind-altering amounts of sugar, it might actually be that strong just to beat Rocky's considerable tolerance to whatever's in it, but that just begs the question of how Rocky consumes anything that powerful and isn't dead. | |

We ARE Struggling Together: The thugs working for the Marigold gang are constantly at each other's throats. Wes punched Fish after Fish called him "Weaselface". Serafine forcibly carved a Voodoo symbol into Mordecai's chest, and readers can safely assume that Mordecai is plotting revenge. Not only that, but "Illumination" implies that his loyalty to Asa Sweet is showing to not be as solid as originally thought, given that instead of just killing Gracie, he instead brings him to a secluded location to question him as to why Marigold is cleaning house. | |

Cerebus Syndrome: The humor in this story has always been rather dark, and it's always been violent and full of drama, but the first volume was much more comedic and had more emphasis placed on snarkiness and slapstick. Starting around the part where Mitzi steals a checking book from Wick, it's all downhill from there. After Rocky gets injured, things get real dark, real fast. | |

Gosh Dang It to Heck!: After the "train jumpscare", the first thing anyone says afterwards is a relieved "Beggorah!" from Rocky, "Begorrah" being an Irish amalgam of "By God". Ivy uses a few era-appropriate euphemisms like "Holy Simolean!" and "Raspberries!" | |

Hoist by His Own Petard | |
Lackadaisy (Webcomic) / int_d397657d | comment |
Hoist by His Own Petard: A literal example (albeit with dynamite and not a petard) gets zig-zagged near the end of Rocky's Construction Vehicle Rampage. First, a stick of dynamite Rocky threw bounces off a water tower and lands in the cache of dynamite below him, which he avoids by bailing out. Then, the still-running steam shovel nearly runs him over, before getting caught under said water tower. Finally, when the dynamite detonates, the blast breaches the tower and causes the water to come down on top of Rocky like a makeshift tsunami, which hits him full-force, but he keeps himself from being washed into the quarry proper by grabbing one of the tower's concrete foundation pedestals. | |

Vitriolic Best Buds: The former dynamic duo of Viktor and Mordecai; while not exactly 'best buds', both had a tentative respect for each other's existence. Considering the kind of people Viktor and Mordecai are, a vague kinda-you-sorta respect is probably the closest thing to 'friendship' either one is capable of. The two actually spent time together out of work, if this mini-comic can be trusted. | |

Unusual Euphemism: Downplayed, in that they're only unusual from a modern standpoint, but were quite common in the era portrayed: Rocky breathes a relieved "Begorrah!" after the train jumpscare. Ivy shouts "Holy Simolean!" when Serafine shoots out the former's back windshield. Ivy exclaims "Raspberries!" when their car, which had stalled after crashing into a shed, refuses to restart, necessitating the use of a hand crank. Ivy used "Skedaddle" (synonym for "leave") when the trio flee the quarry. Rocky whisper-shouts "Aces!" under his breath when Ivy verifies the continued existence of his eyebrows after his Construction Vehicle Rampage goes awry. | |

A Glass in the Hand: Played straight when Viktor accidentally crushes a glass he was trying to clean after Mitzi tries to get him to lighten up. Downplayed when Mitzi and Ivy (attempt to) taste their newly-acquired whisky, as their "reactions" are accompanied by a subtle cracking sound that makes it seem like they're crushing their glasses without completely destroying them. | |

Blind Shoulder Toss | |
Lackadaisy (Webcomic) / int_dc93d08b | comment |
Blind Shoulder Toss: When Rocky is digging around in the back of Lackadaisy's car in search for a certain something, he tosses everything he gets his paws on over his shoulder, including the ever-creepy Cactus Friend. When Nico nearly swallows a piece of glass, he promptly sets it aside upon identifying it. At least half the dynamite Rocky throws out of a steam shovel bucket is done without the slightest care for where it lands, which is exactly how one stick comes back at him by way of bouncing off a water tower leg, necessitating a hasty leap from the dynamite-filled bucket, just before the shovel hits the tower. Mitzi does this with the cork from a bottle she'd opened. Inverted when Rocky takes his hat from Freckle, despite never looking at him the entire time. | |

Affectionate Nickname | |
Lackadaisy (Webcomic) / int_dcd423d2 | comment |
Affectionate Nickname: While talking to Ivy, Rocky refers to Freckle as "Baby-Face" as the latter makes a suitably infantile expression. While talking to Freckle, Rocky - likely in jest - refers to Ivy as "Hotsy-Totsy", though the level of affection is arguable, as she rolls her eyes at his comment. While tempting his cousin Freckle into the role of their Caper Crew's gunsel, Rocky calls him "Torpedo Boy," "torpedo" being period-accurate slang for a Hired Gun. After finding Lackadaisy's car undefended, Serafine refers to the whiskey within as "Mes Amis" (French for "My friends"). Nico and Serafine both refer to Mordecai as "Cher" (French for "Dear") at least once each. While fleeing the quarry, Ivy refers to Rocky as "Mudbug" due to her finding him face-first in the giant mud pit that resulted when he accidentally blew up a water tower. | |

Friend to All Living Things | |
Lackadaisy (Webcomic) / int_e21faf11 | comment |
Friend to All Living Things: Tracy herself. As evidenced by her 08/23/2010 journal entry on her deviantArt page, Tracy "unofficially adopted" her neighbor's cat Luca after she found the poor creature barely alive with several serious facial injuries and a myriad of infections. She took Luca to the vet to have him humanely euthanized, but then found it in her heart (and wallet) to pay for his many many surgeries, antibiotic treatments, and pain medication. The result: Luca is now living happily with Tracy as a sort of bizarre IRL counterpart to Viktor, as Luca lost an eye to infection and is generally chewed up body wise. | |

Art Evolution | |
Lackadaisy (Webcomic) / int_e43c66bd | comment |
Art Evolution: Not that it even needed it from the start, but as you progress through the comic you see the lighting becoming more expressive and detailed (thanks to computer rendering) and the bodies becoming more proportionate and closer to human body types. Now every frame looks like an authentic 1920s photograph. From a more stylistic standpoint, at the start, the art was purely sepia, however as the story continues, and the art and shadowing improved, it starts involving more color. It's still generally sepia, but things such as blood get colored and the more stylized/supernatural things get color as well. And starting with Volume 3, the sepia aspect is mostly gone, with the art regularly employing color, though still very washed out. It doesn't look like old photos anymore, but its not fully colored either. | |

Webcomic Time: This is due in large part to the excessive amount of work that goes into the comic as time goes on, plus some Schedule Slip now and then. To list: In at least one case, a span of six years equated to two days in-story. A keen-eyed viewer would notice that the events of Volumes 1 and 2 lasted around 10 days, as shown with the start of the comic (2006) referencing the Charles Lindbergh's Atlantic flight (21 May 1927) and this page posted on 2016 near the end of Volume 2 shows that the date didn't even reach June 1927. This means that it took a decade to cover just 10 days. | |

Then he accidently drops a lit stick of dynamite in the bucket just as it hits the quarry's water tower. However accidental, the resulting explosive flooding does provide cover for their escape. | |

Funny Animal: Everyone, but quite a few feline expressions are used (particularly with Ivy). | |

Consummate Professional | |
Lackadaisy (Webcomic) / int_ed84457a | comment |
Consummate Professional: As Marigold Gang's triggerman, Mordecai Heller's reputation as a serious, straight-laced Professional Killer precedes him. If only he weren't stuck as The Straight Man and Commander Contrarian to "profoundly unprofessional" Blood Knights Nico and Serafine, a pair of Overzealous Underlings who sidetrack him into an unnecessary Car Chase Shootout in the name of "fun." | |

Early-Bird Cameo | |
Lackadaisy (Webcomic) / int_f0089082 | comment |
Early-Bird Cameo: Wick and Mordecai both appear during the flashback in the second page of the comic. They formally join the cast in pages 13 and 27, respectively. Asa Sweet has a very early cameo as well. He isn't formally introduced until about 3/4s of the way through the first volume, but if you look closely you can see him in the crowd attending Atlas May's funeral in the first few pages. | |

Offhand Backhand | |
Lackadaisy (Webcomic) / int_f018c5cf | comment |
Offhand Backhand: Not exactly a backhand, but Viktor still pulls off something with the same sentiment. When incapacitated. Poor Rocky just can't catch a break. | |

Lost in the Maize: Subverted. Rocky attempts to use it as a means of escape when he and Ivy were found by the owners of some stashed liquor, but the corn was too low-grown to be of any use. | |

Sesquipedalian Loquaciousness | |
Lackadaisy (Webcomic) / int_f1d3f0c9 | comment |
Sesquipedalian Loquaciousness: Mordecai is prone to this every so often(see Hypocritical Humor above), being one of the most intelligent of the cast yet without the social skills needed to know/care that others (usually Viktor) might not understand the longer words. | |

The Alleged Car | |
Lackadaisy (Webcomic) / int_f237981e | comment |
The Alleged Car: Rocky's car (though technically it belongs to Lackadaisy, Rocky is the one primarily depicted driving it, besides, he lives in it anyway) is in pretty rough shape, sporting several bullet holes, is prone to stalls due to a worn-out clutch, and the interior is a mess. Not surprising, considering Rocky's haphazard, reckless nature, and the fact that the car doubles as his home. | |

Intoxication Ensues | |
Lackadaisy (Webcomic) / int_f247d841 | comment |
Intoxication Ensues: Viktor is injured during the pig farmers' siege of Lackadaisy. Dr. Quackenbush administers anesthesia to Viktor before tending to his wounds. Ivy finds Viktor unconscious with a big smile on his face. In a side comic, Rocky replaces Mordecai's tea with his "special coffee". Mordecai's pupils dilate, and he recoils in horror when he sees giant microorganisms on the table. The last panel shows a terrified Mordecai curled up in a ball, surrounded by hallucinations of eldritch abominations. In a flashback, Mordecai sustains an injury and is taken to Elsa for treatment. He flatly refuses to let Elsa treat him, but consents once she injects him with morphine. The last frame shows Elsa holding a hypodermic needle, standing next to a sloshed Mordecai who has collapsed on an operating table. In a side comic, Mordecai underestimated the strength of Bunny Hugs cocktails, got himself drunk, and fawned on Viktor. | |

Easily Forgiven | |
Lackadaisy (Webcomic) / int_f36c4f98 | comment |
Easily Forgiven: Viktor regularly brutalizes Rocky, but Rocky continues to treat him as a friend and Mizti keeps him on staff. Viktor has also beaten up Ivy's boyfriends, and yet Ivy continues to be friends with him. In a flashback, Mordecai shot his driver, Sniffles, because Sniffles' sinus problems got on his nerves. Mordecai never suffered repercussions for murdering a coworker in cold blood. | |

Lackadaisy (Webcomic) / int_fb17af62 | comment |
Rhymes on a Dime: Rocky does this twice; first during the opening poem, and again during his Mad Bomber moment. After his first poem, Ivy mockingly chimes in with a melodramatic "It's abundantly clear, you forgot us down here." | |

Brick Joke | |
Lackadaisy (Webcomic) / int_fe0330fb | comment |
Brick Joke: A Freeze-Frame Bonus shows a sign outside the quarry (before Rocky, Freckle and Ivy smash through it) that says 'Sable Stone & Quarry Inc'. Later in the pilot, Wick is disturbed to hear of Rocky using dynamite in a quarry, while Rocky eventually refers to him as Mr. Sable, revealing that he owns the place. At the very end, there's a double-still of Wick discovering the copious damage done to his property, utterly horrified. | |

Shown Their Work | |
Lackadaisy (Webcomic) / int_ffad4e9f | comment |
Shown Their Work: One for the animators: Near the beginning, when you see a car pass under the bridge, if you pause at just the right moment, you can actually make out Nico in the driver's seat, with the biggest hint being his burly, white-furred arm appearing as a small white line along the bottom of the window. When Mitzi reads a news report to (a picture of) Atlas, the report talks about the death of Isadora Duncan, which happened on 14 September 1927. The means that the events of the pilot takes place during the latter half of September 1927. | |
