 The Chapel Chronicles (Webcomic)
comment
Chapel Chronicles is a hand drawn, full-color webcomic created by Emma T Capps which updates on Fridays with author commentary in English and Spanish.The strips center around the adventures of Chapel Smith, a zany 11 year-old girl and her hedgehog sidekick, Sir Rupert Tennyson Bollingsworth the First. Chapel loves hats, hates chores, has a little bit of an obsession with Lady Gaga, an archenemy, Fred, with whom she plays games, and in Season One adopts a pet hedgehog. The art has evolved in Season Two to give backgrounds to Chapel, such as a house, and to explore other aspects of her personality. The author sells a Webcomic Print Collection of the 32 strips in Season One. Can be read here. You probably should start from the beginning to get a real sense of Chapel's character and to understand later references.

Easter Egg
 The Chapel Chronicles (Webcomic) / int_29a39f6
comment
Easter Egg: In The Folly of Chivalry, the position of the chess pieces are the exact ones referenced by the characters when Alice checkmates in Through the Looking Glass but the black and white suits are reversed. In Lobster Delivery, the packing labels on the box (almost impossible to read) say 42 Penny Lane, referring to The Beatles, Millinery Co. Drum Isle, Grand Line, referring to a place in One Piece.

Limited Wardrobe: Chapel's wardrobe is mainly limited to her Little Black Dress and loads of hats and is easily recognized by her clothing. In Gaga Dress Code and Oblivious to the Obsession, Chapel dresses in Lady Gaga outfits.

Playing Pictionary: In a reversal of the usual trope, Chapel draws an photo-realistic Mona Lisa (how slow is that sand?), but Fred can't identify it.

comment
Dream Sequence: The comic book ends in a four page Dream Sequence entitled Chapel in Wonderland in which Chapel finds herself dressed as Alice from Alice in Wonderland. Fred, her archenemy is the Cheshire Cat, Lady Gaga appears having beheaded Justin Bieber, wanting to play chess with flamingos and using Rupert as the ball. Chapel finally leaves and walks off but is still dressed as Alice at the end.

Indulgent Fantasy Segue: When Chapel plays games with her archenemy Fred, she sometimes engages in these. When she is playing Risk in Chapel the Conqueror, she imagines herself taking over the world before discovering that in reality, she has just lost the game. In the Folly of Chivalry, she imagines herself as Sir Lancelot when in reality, she has just been checkmated.

comment
Long Pants: While other on-screen characters are drawn with shoes on, Chapel's feet are always portrayed as long skin-colored blobs, even though she has well-defined fingers. It's never clear whether that's the case of artistic simplification or Chapel being perpetually barefoot, but she is portrayed wearing shoes inside her personality flip nightmare, so it probably might be the latter. Interestingly, this trope also applies even after the comic undergoing Art Evolution for The Hats of London!

Shout-Out: The strips have Shout Outs to other authors and works. In the The Babysitter Arrives, Chapel is wearing a hat worn by the character Nico Robin in One Piece. In The Good, the Bad, and the Hatted, Chapel is reading Hereville by Barry Deustch. In Google Epiphany, the computer Chapel is using has the Apple Newton logo. In The Folly of Chivalry, the chess pieces are drawn in the style of Through the Looking Glass, the first game for the Apple Macintosh. In Oblivious to the Obsession, the color of the Lady Gaga outfit is a Shout Out to the color worn by Quinn in Glee. In DVD Collection, Chapel proposes various names for her hedgehog which are all Shout Outs to science fiction television characters. In Chapel in Wonderland, Chapel references a poem by Edgar Allan Poe, "The Raven".
