Minus | |
| minus. (Webcomic) | comment |
A webcomic by Ryan Armand that ran for 130 episodes from February 2006 to July 2008. The original website is down, but it can still be found on archive.org. Or These MirrorsThe protagonist minus note No, that's not a grammar error; her written name actually starts with a lowercase m is an elementary school girl. She is sometimes mistaken for a boy. She has a very powerful imagination and can do anything she wants. The things she does are fickle and whimsical, as well as mischievous and vindictive. She is, after all, a child.She has very few friends, apart from a green-haired girl, the beings that minus wills into existence, and the ghosts.It should be noted that this webcomic is not recommended for grownups, who may find it disturbing.Compare and contrast with "It's a Good Life". Also, yes, both the character and the strip are spelled with a lower case "m". | |

Magical Camera | |
| minus. (Webcomic) / int_139e8618 | comment |
Magical Camera: minus uses a camera to take a picture of a tour guide, who brought up the fact that some used to believe that it captured souls. However, thanks to minus's powers, it indeed captures souls, as the guide's spirit shows up in the polaroid. | |

| minus. (Webcomic) / int_15b2cab3 | comment |
Tempting Fate: In #66, when a tour group suddenly runs away from minus holding a camera, the tour guide tries to explain to them that it's not going to steal their spirit. The tour guide allows her to take a picture of him, so that's what she does. The next panel shows his smiling ghost in a camera picture. | |

The Slow Path | |
| minus. (Webcomic) / int_1c7a7a52 | comment |
The Slow Path: #25 and #26. When the long-haired red-haired girl is gone, she lives an entire lifetime, whereas minus and the other children wait for a few minutes until the elderly version of her returns. Slight subversion as she wouldn't make it back at all; minus brings her back in her old age to say good bye. | |

Characterization Marches On | |
| minus. (Webcomic) / int_479f9ad0 | comment |
Characterization Marches On: Despite having a reputation for being dangerous, in truth minus stops intentionally doing negative things very quickly. By halfway through the comic she's almost entirely neutral: only doing negative things out of naivete rather than malice, and often working to mitigate or reduce any negative consequences of her actions. She never stops callously making and destroying sentient beings, however. | |

Knight of Cerebus | |
| minus. (Webcomic) / int_6a47a1e2 | comment |
Knight of Cerebus: Subverted. Red top-hat guy appears to warp minus's mind somehow, and she dies two pages later. minus returns as a ghost, but accidentally kills everyone (except Larry) soon afterward. Everyone lives on in her strange afterlife, though, and the tone never really changes. #123 appears to poke fun at the comic's own ongoing lack of seriousness. | |

Mugging the Monster: More specifically, Bullying A Reality Warper: A few kids in the very first strip bully minus, not knowing about her reality-warping powers.

He learns the hard way not to mess with minus, as he gets shrunken down and chased by an ant ridden by the 2 girls. | |

Spirit World: One of the many things minus creates on a whim. She takes a man through the world of ghosts, which looks a lot like modern society. However, the man doesn't believe that's what a spirit world really looks like, so minus changes the setting to an ancient cave, and then to a field of flowers connected by rainbow bridges. | |

Reality Warping Is Not a Toy | |
| minus. (Webcomic) / int_7af365d7 | comment |
Reality Warping Is Not a Toy: This trope is usually played with, with minus either letting havoc break loose or controlling her environments. The biggest example comes at the very end with innocent little minus accidentally killing everyone on the planet by, ironically, resurrecting everybody who ever died (mass suffocation ensues as the earth is covered in layers of people and animals). It's played for laughs, though, because everybody decides to just create a utopia in the afterlife, and eventually the ghosts turn Earth into a theme-park based on how things used to be. | |

Mood Whiplash: At a few points, the comic can switch from a lighthearted tone to a darker tone. The most notable example of this is the ending, when the bright tone of minus bringing people to life is cut short by her accidentally ending the world. The mood does remain more lighthearted for the rest of the strips, though. | |

Alternate History: Even without minus around making the laws of reality her servant, there are subtle hints that her world is not the same as our own. Of course, she may well be responsible for that... | |

Ancient Astronauts: Doubly Subverted: After hearing about the hypothesis, minus goes back in time to try to meet the aliens. She doesn't find any... but at the end of the strip it is revealed that yes, aliens were responsible for the human race. She just didn't go far enough back in time. | |

Be Careful What You Wish For: Rule of thumb: never ask minus anything when she's distracted, and always remember to be precise, and think of the side-effects before you do. This comic demonstrates another rule: Make it short and easy to pay attention to. | |

"End of the World" Special | |
| minus. (Webcomic) / int_b77c5ecb | comment |
"End of the World" Special: The eponymous character simultaneously resurrects every human and beast to have ever walked the earth, crushing both the current inhabitants and the freshly-risen dead. Through a conference of the Smartest People Who Ever Lived, it is decided that everyone should just stay in the afterlife. The extraterrestrial creators of human life decide to turn the newly empty Earth into a theme park showing what Earth was like right before everyone died, which is then visited by ghosts. And that's the end of the comic. | |

FieryRedHead | |

Fiery Red Head: The red-haired ghost shows signs of a hot-blooded personality, most notably in three specific instances towards the end: the first when she instantly snaps at her mother, who, according to her, contributed to her death, the second when she, as the green-haired woman she was reincarnated as, gets furious when a man either gets in the way or acts rudely towards the waitress she wants to befriend, and the third when, once again in her recarnation, she tackles a red-haired girl who she appears to be familiar with and hold a grudge towards. | |

Shout-Out: Various references to anime here. In order of lines, the immortal who wants to be human is from Hoshin Engi, the second one sounds vaguely like a quote about immortality from Galaxy Express 999, the one about the witch giving up her powers is Ojamajo Doremi, and the quote about everything coming easy sounds similar to a lament made in Magic User's Club by Takeo's gay friend. The dishman who was out dojo-hunting obviously battled a practitioner of Panzerkunst. In the description of Strip #116: | |

Blue-and-Orange Morality | |
| minus. (Webcomic) / int_e8e56799 | comment |
Blue-and-Orange Morality: Technically minus is a child, so she doesn't have the same concept of moral responsibility an adult does, and does things which might seem like invokedFridge Horror or Disproportionate Retribution to adult readers. Possibly also justified given her reality-warping powers are pretty limitless and that she can also see ghosts (hence, death probably isn't a big deal). The closest it comes to any sense of logic is: minus just likes to have fun regardless of the consequences, and doesn't like it when things get in the way of that. | |

Accidental Murder: minus does this on occasion, most notably with the woman in the magic show, who was cut in half and pieced back together, only for her to remain dead until minus revived her. There was also one by the green-haired girl, who unwittingly made minus shatter into pieces by throwing a rock at her at the suggestion of the white-haired girl. And unlike the others, this one stuck. | |
