August 31, 200916 yr wikipedia: The style of Cyanide and Happiness is best described as dark, cynical, often offensive, and exceedingly irreverent. Frequent topics of humor include disabilities, rape, cancer ,murder suicide, necrophilia, pedophilia, sexual deviancy, sexually transmitted diseases, self-mutilation, nihilism, and violence .The comic does not always have a definite punchline in each strip, or may have several panels of "awkward silence"after (or instead of) the punchline, with characters simply staring at each other. There are few recurring characters and virtually no characterization, with characters often acting irrationally or nonsensically. Rob's latest series of strips features a scientist or fictional character such as Aladdin who has sex with an inanimate object, prompting a visit to a surprised doctor. The latest recurring character is Gullboy, who appears in Dave's comics and is a disembodied head who uses his hair as makeshift wings. He was once the head of an old man whose dream was to become a seagull, and was caught in a fish net and thought to be killed on 11/05/2008. On 22/06/2009, Gullboy makes another appearance by landing on an old man's head and attempting to procreate with it. The male characters almost always have no hair, which became a joke in itself. Female characters are distinguishable by their long hair and chest size, often used to comedic effect. The strip also features many pop culture references such as Nike and Star Wars and famous characters such as Lindsay Lohan, Steven Tyler, Metallica, The Beatles, and Billie Joe Armstrong of Green Day. Jesus also makes numerous appearances, often with the comic containing religious puns. All four artists also occasionally break the fourth wall in unique ways, using the borders of each comic panel as part of the comic itself, allowing the characters within to interact with them in some form or another. The comics frequently make use of metafiction (or breaking the fourth wall), with characters acknowledging their status as cartoons in a webcomic and discussing what is expected of them as a consequence. On at least two occasions, Kris has used animation in an otherwise static comic.
