Real Life Origins\n\n Trollface (also known as Troll Face) originates from a comic made by Carlos Ramirez, also known online as Whynne. Originally posted on DeviantArt, the iconic face is said by Whynne himself to be based off of the "Rape Rodent" face.

The first rage faces appeared in comics on 4chan around the middle of 2007. Though the original number of characters was small, they carried the undeniable traits of rage faces as we recognize them today.
