4. 3. X is a black and white amateur film written by Craig Hamann and Y and directed by Y, while he was working at the now shuttered Video Archives in Manhattan Beach, California.

Y became attached to the project as co-writer and director, and he and Hamann expanded the short script into an 80 page script. On an estimated budget of $5,000, they shot the film on 16mm over the course of the next four years. Hamann and Y starred in the film, along with several video store and acting class buddies, and worked on the crew, which included fellow Video Archives employees Rand Vossler and Roger Avary.

13. 11. Z is a webcomic written and drawn by Japanese-American comic strip artist Tatsuya Ishida. Slick, an inept womanizer and self-proclaimed pimp, is the strip's main character. Slick's appearance is based on X from Y; (which was parodied in one strip where Slick and Monique dress up like Y while proclaiming originality). Slick is aged "between 14 and 21,"but he is often seen consuming alcohol and looking at pornography, suggesting that, while he somewhat resembles a child, he is in fact a young adult. In the first strips, he applies to the Devil to sell his soul, and his application remained pending for years. His continued moral struggle with lust gets him repeatedly thrown into hell, but he always manages to escape in various ways, often with the help of other characters. It is also shown that slick has a laptop called "the slickbook" which has suddenly taken on an independent personality and has become like a pet to Slick. Prior to this, the laptop was shown as a simple inanimate object. Z has been rejected by newspaper comic syndicates eleven times as of January 25,2006 for the prime reason that it defames the comic Y.
