Epic Face, also known as Derp is a round yellow-colored face, with eyes looking upward to its left and a big smiling mouth, so as to give the impression of a blissfully happy, joyful face. He is part of a face species that lives on the planet Epic World.

Due to its simplistic details and nature, the face has been manipulated and exploited greatly. It's regularly seen in popular web forums (such as SomethingAwful) as well as image boards (such as 4chan), and even occasionally on other websites (such as Roblox), in both unaltered and altered forms. It is commonly used as a reaction face “To express a high level of approval or ironically to express disdain".

Origin

According to gaming blog driph (administrated by Chris Ainsworth), the Awesome Face was part of a series of emoticons designed and illustrated for the Pokémon-related web forum Pokemopolis. According to the designer (whose identity is unknown), the face is best described as a “ridiculous childish glee”. It's design might be a reference to certain Pokémon such as Lavender Town GHOST and Missingno's GHOST form.
