The BOXBOY! series contains multiple 4-koma style tie-in comics, which are either available online or in-game. In BOXBOY!, comics were not available in-game, and were instead available as tie-in comics provided at Nintendo's websites for BOXBOY!, such as boxboy.nintendo.com. Beginning with BOXBOXBOY!, comics were added to the Shop.

The original full English translations of the comics "The Awakening", "Out of Proportion", "A Legend is Born", "Danger!" and "Box House" were previously only available on boxboy.nintendo.com/extras. For many years following their removal from the Nintendo website in 2019, these comics did not resurface on the known internet for many years due to a failure to publicly archive them. In 2024, however, a few fans of the game provided their copies of these comics, and they can now be documented on the BOXBOY WIKI!. "Out of Proportion", however, has yet to be found. For this reason, the comic has been substituted with its Japanese version.
If you have any screenshots or archives of the English translation of "Out of Proportion" for personal use, you are highly encouraged to share it with the BOXBOY! community for archival purposes and to help the BOXBOY WIKI! complete its library of comics.

The BOXBOY WIKI! would like to thank the following individuals for helping us locate the previously missing comics:
  • Audaaa and several others for finding "The Awakening"
  • TheBrawlGirl for finding "A Legend is Born" and "Box House"
  • Thermospore for finding "Danger!"
