Cut and Paste Comic: All faces, especially the multi-purpose Cereal Guy.Curse Cut Short: The Rage Guy's "FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU".Comic-Book Fantasy Casting: Several of the supporting faces (such as "You don't say", "True story", and "Watch out, we've got a badass") are trace-overs of real people.This contrasts with the common usage, where the Trollface simply annoys/pranks people without a problem. The creator's next use had him actually pull the face (called "cool face") to nervously cover from a police officer. Characterization Marches On: When the Trollface was originally created, he was actually shown as desperate and unsuccessful into pissing off his target.Captain Obvious: The "You Don't Say?" guy is used as a response to obvious statements, itself taken from a contour drawing of Nicolas Cage in the film Vampire's Kiss.Atomic F-Bomb: The Rage Guy's signature "FFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUU".Nowadays, that is no longer the case but the title stuck. Artifact Title: Early strips universally ended with the Rage Guy raging.Abusive Parents: The trolldad occasionally hits this point.Alice and Bob: Most characters in the rage comics go by the names Derp, Herp (both male), Derpette, Derpina (female), and derivatives.While the format has largely died out since 2016, rage comics are still considered an iconic part of early 2010s Internet culture, and some of the characters and formats that originated in them are still used today. More "rage faces" have been introduced, and by the early-mid 2010s, hundreds of rage comics were produced and uploaded online every day, alongside LOLCats and other memes. The original rage face was the "Rage Guy", to whom the format owes its title. Originating as a collection of anonymous webcomics posted on 4chan back in 2008, the format quickly spread across the web, thanks to its accessibility (pretty much anyone with Photoshop and online access can produce a rage comic within minutes) and the catchiness of many "rage faces". Essentially a Cut and Paste Comic format with a shared pool of recurring face sprites, most rage comics tell short anecdotal stories with a punchline from their authors' lives.
"rage face comics" are not a single webcomic per se but a massive agglomeration of unrelated webcomics by different authors across the interwebs, united only by their distinct style and topics.
