| Magellan (Webcomic) | comment |
Set on the eponymous island, Magellan (Occasionally NSFW) is a Super Hero webcomic by Grace Crowley (aka xmung) that starts with the arrival of Kaycee Jones and a score of new cadets to the Academy, for many years of training in order to become an accredited Super Hero in her own right.Of course, before she can do that she, and all the other cadets, have to deal with the intensive training regime, the schoolyard bickering, romantic confusion, and not forgetting the murderous maniac with a vested interest to kill her and everyone else on the island...Embracing and parodying superhero tropes in good measure, Magellan is currently telling a chapter entitled Parargdox with a side story called Families being used as a voting incentive. Has a character page that is more up to date than it used to be but still needs some love.Has nothing to do with the famous explorer. | |

Anyone Can Die | |
| Magellan (Webcomic) / int_1237828f | comment |
Anyone Can Die: For the most part, this only applies to the villains. But in a much grimmer twist, it's said rather blithely on the cast page that occasionally, cadets might die. The reader tends to forget this up until Chang is drained of his life force in a rather painful manner by DragonKlaw, his future villainous self. Later on, an older cadet is mentioned as dying during the attack by the dragons. Noticeable in the side story The Olaf Mystery. Svetlana dies during what is supposed to be a simple training exercise, showing that cadets can die even when they're not being attacked by a Big Bad. Fortunately, Olaf brings her back to life. | |

Not-So-Harmless Villain | |
| Magellan (Webcomic) / int_171ef47c | comment |
Not-So-Harmless Villain: Evil Weevil managed to pull it out...without even appearing! We first see him in Brian's Power Fantasy, where he seems to be a Silver Age-style Harmless Villain. Then we get to know that he was an arch-nemesis of Victory Man, world's first superhero and the one behind his De-power. And then there's an exam involving fighting his robot duplicate and trying to stop his evil plan, copy of one original Weevil once pulled out. And it ain't pretty. Among the known casualties is Montana-Rose's aunt, as revealed during Lock(e)down. | |

The Nominal Hero Charisma definitely has shades of this, trying to have her famous father scold staff for treating her like everyone else for example. He father does not support this, and in fact almost had her removed from Magellan because he thought her attitude made her a poor choice to be a hero. | |

Butterfly of Doom | |
| Magellan (Webcomic) / int_2ec219ee | comment |
Butterfly of Doom: As shown in the alternate future, Go!Anna dying in a plane crash turned out to have life-changing events, even for characters she never got the chance to meet in that timeline. Since Go!Anna didn't die in the new timeline, the Artifact of Doom she was investigating wasn't destroyed with her and was taken by a supervillain. DragonKlaw's attack results in a corrupt staff member trying to blackmail Maya, only to be Mind Raped into transferring elsewhere. In her new post, she sells alien DNA to Brian's father, making it possible for him to delve into his Mad Scientist pursuits which likely never happened in the previous timeline. DragonKlaw's attack also results in two scientists who worked for Magellan suffering PTSD. They decide to quit, averting Reed Richards Is Useless by selling their expertise in super advanced technology to a private company. Thanks to their help, said company is able to create a highly advanced spaceship and travel to Jupiter, not knowing that hostile aliens have claimed Jupiter for themselves. Their intrusion results in the Rarg attacking humanity much earlier than in the previous timeline. | |

Out of Focus: Many of the characters tend to drop off the radar for pages at a time, due to the humongous cast size. A notable example are the cadets of Kaycee's year, who tend to only get spotlighted during training exercises. Three (Fabian, Hugh, and Jesus) have never even spoken in the main story. | |

The World Is Not Ready | |
| Magellan (Webcomic) / int_3407c500 | comment |
The World Is Not Ready: The reason Magellan has futuristic tech, even including spaceships with Faster-Than-Light Travel, while the world at large is only a little further than the real world. A lot of Magellan's tech is banned from public use because they believe that it is too dangerous to be widespread. Notably, Prometheus Genesis Corp strongly disagrees and resents them as elitists for keeping their toys to themselves, believing that they are holding the world back. This results in a disaster when they not only accidentally tick off an alien race while testing new tech, but also get in the way of Magellan's attempts to help due to paranoia towards their real intentions. | |

Alternate Universe: It's implied that the Magellan the readers are seeing is actually the alternate of the original timeline. Trying to sum up the Mind Screw briefly, two villains, the future Maya and Chang, went back in time to try and change things. Instead of altering their future, they instead created an alternate timeline. | |

Absolute Xenophobe: The Rarg mostly keep to themselves, but it doesn't take much to set them off at all. Any perceived "attack" or intrusion on what they consider their territory will result in them attempting genocide up to an Earth-Shattering Kaboom, even if it means every single last one of them dying with their enemies. The Rarg setup a base on Jupiter without humanity knowing it. In both timelines, attempts to harvest Jupiter's resources results in them deciding to Kill All Humans. | |

Reed Richards Is Useless: Averted with Premonitia who retired from superheroing to play the stock market and work as a philanthropist, but played straight with the world overall. Some private corporations have access to some pretty advanced stuff, but the world at large doesn't have access to the magic and super science Magellan has access to due to a mixture of cost and Magellan feeling that The World Is Not Ready. | |

Unwitting Instigator of Doom: Super tech is only allowed to be used by superheroes for purposes like fighting villains. Humans invented Faster-Than-Light Travel long ago, but are not part of the galactic community, because in order to keep the story verse similar to the real world, this technology has been declared illegal by reason of The World Is Not Ready. The Prometheus company tries to prove them wrong by stealing the tech and harvesting Jupiter gas as a demo to show why the ban should be lifted, only to accidentally massacre an alien colony living within Jupiter, showing the ban on using supertech in daily life to be correct. | |

Flying Brick | |

Flying Brick: Called a "powerhouse", and several show up, including Epoch, his daughter Charisma, Bill Banks, and Captain Victoria. Their frequency is justified; they're rare in the world at large, but the titular organization deliberately attempts to recruit them. In at least one comic someone is literally called a a flying brick. Given that the author has linked to this site in comments before it's quite likely this trope directly inspired that reference. | |

It's All About Me | |
| Magellan (Webcomic) / int_bb18a227 | comment |
It's All About Me: A common theme is that what separates the heroes from the villains is that the heroes think about helping other people instead of themselves with their powers, while the villains use their powers only to fuel their own selfish desires. The Nominal Hero Charisma definitely has shades of this, trying to have her famous father scold staff for treating her like everyone else for example. He father does not support this, and in fact almost had her removed from Magellan because he thought her attitude made her a poor choice to be a hero. | |

Hoist by His Own Petard: The Q'Arth invasion was implied to have been instigated by cultists within the Soviet Union. We find out during the "Families/Cемьи" side comic that The Soviets intentionally accessed the Q'Arth dimension, seeking to capture and enslave the Q'Arth to use against The West. The attempt killed ten million people , caused the collapse of the Soviet Union and made global heroes of the Western heroes who stopped the invasion. Also, we see that the lack of training and experience Red Vlad and Comrade Katya received (being used by the Communist Party more for propaganda purposes than for fighting real threats) left them with no real chance against a true threat like the Q'Arth. | |

Tragic Monster | |
| Magellan (Webcomic) / int_e35bc0f7 | comment |
Tragic Monster: Several villains are themselves victims. Malice was once a normal woman, but was kidnapped by a Mad Scientist and fused with multiple spiders and alien DNA. The resulting Mind Hive has attempted to discard its human identity. | |

Art Evolution | |
| Magellan (Webcomic) / int_e43c66bd | comment |
Art Evolution: Forn Demons originally started out with normal black pupils and white sclera, no tails, and normal feet. When Jenna became more of a focus, it was revealed they have yellow pupils and red sclera, cloven hooves, and forked tails. For a good comparison, note the way Jenna is drawn on this page as opposed to one drawn five years later. | |

Webcomic Time | |
| Magellan (Webcomic) / int_e99f2959 | comment |
Webcomic Time: Bad Karma, an arc that takes place mostly over a single day, took two and a half years to complete. Also of note is the fact the comic started in March 2004. The writer clearly didn't anticipate how long it was going to take to tell the story, for the main character and her schoolmates are the class of 2015, indicating they were supposed to graduate roughly in double real time. They're still only in their third year as of this writing. | |

Dwindling Party | |
| Magellan (Webcomic) / int_ed68bcc9 | comment |
Dwindling Party: Usually, the cadet classes are so tough that they have people drop out, be too injured to continue, be expelled, or die every year, leaving the original class of twenty-four to thirty with only ten or so in the final year. Notably, Kaycee's year is an exception. They've only had one person die, leaving the class with still twenty-three people in their third year. Dialogue suggests that there is at least one other cadet who is considering quitting. | |

| Magellan (Webcomic) / int_feb72f62 | comment |
Literal Genie: Noted to be a reason you should never make a wish on a genie. Genies are guaranteed to either misinterpret your wish or twist them maliciously, meaning that your wish will never quite go as intended. I wish I were younger. Notably, despite not thinking through her first two wishes at all, the results aren't entirely bad. The third one did not work out too well for her, however. | |
