Hey guys, I'm thinking about doing a comic featuring overused comic ideas, but I want them to be visual ideas only (i.e. I'm doing a bunch of images, not like concepts or punchlines).
So far I can think of Sloth in a tutu, meepits, white weewoos... what else can I add?

Oh, that sounds interesting. ^__^ Good luck~
Umm... Perhaps the Snowager? Meepits is a definite yes. >_< Uhh... I can't really think of anything else. I'm looking forward to seeing the comic though. =D

Random Events, but that would require having text...

Random Events, but that would require having text... I think that would still work, I could just have a "Something has happened!" box in the background. |

There are the old King Skarl and King Hagan jokes...
Then there are clothing and the "dung shop" jokes...
There are also overused Brain Tree and Esophagor jokes (as well as anyone else that gives quests).
The Fountain Faerie and the Water Faerie in Faerieland also have a lot of used jokes.
Some of the above may not necessarily "really" overused, but those were the ones that came into my mind.

Um, this isn't really NT-specific, but you could have someone slipping on a banana peel. xD I can't think of much else. Good luck though! ^_^

Hm, I wouldn't call white weewoos overused. If anything, they're underused. I read all the comics weekly (even if I phail at reviewing, yesyes) and I rarely see weewoos.
What I see often - or don't, depends - are invisible pet jokes >> And this whole deal with yellow Abominable Snowballs and eww-yellow-snow, though that's been becoming kinda obsolete. Droplet has started to reject comics with too overused ideas, I remember hearing about a Sloth-tutu comic getting rejected for unoriginality.

Something with Eliv Thade and speaking in anagrams. That is really overused nowadays. Good luck with the comic, it'll be fun to read.

Pet colour jokes at all. They can be awesome, but they're used a lot.

This er probably goin' ta have ta be one o' those t'ings where ye'll need ta warn Droplet in advance that o'erused plots er the heart o' the comic. Good luck tryin' ta find a spin on it.
Jhudora vs. Illusen er a'ways o'erused... Have'em in another spat wit' the Harpiness Faerie lookin' on an' walkin' away poutin', 'I wanna start a quest too.'

Edible pet jokes, like chocolate and biscut pets.

Dressing up a male pet with female clothing (usually with the NC Mall) is one that I had seen too many of in recent NT editions.
