* {{Retcon}}: Tora's history is infamously retconned. Originally the princess of an isolated tribe of magic-wielding Norsemen, that was retconned into a lie, with her ''real'' parentage apparently being a tribe of UsefulNotes/{{Romani}} (of the stereotypical thieving variety, no less).

** Less controversially, the previous retcon that Max has always hated metahumans and deliberately made the JLI into a joke gets partially de-retconned, with him insisting he was genuinely fond of the team, and an explanation that his hatred of metahumans solidified ''after'' he was no longer their sponsor.

He mostly succeeds, but four heroes, all from the former [[Characters/JusticeLeagueOfAmericaJusticeLeagueInternational Justice League International]], remember him: Captain Atom, Booster Gold, Fire, and Ice. They soon realize that Lord is willing to sacrifice his alleged friends and innocent civilians in pursuit of his goals, but with him actively working to discredit them, they have to fight not only against the forces of darkness, but their own friends and allies. They team up with legacy characters ComicBook/BlueBeetle and Rocket Red. But are they foiling Max's plans? Or playing right into his hands?

Added DiffLines:

* BrokenBird: At first, Ice still struggles with the trauma of having been dead and then resurrected, barely able to bring herself to join the mission and then nearly begging to quit. She eventually decides to stay and fight on for Fire and all their friends.

* SmugSnake: Max, while a ''very'' high functioning one of these who has moments of reaching [[MagnificentBastard loftier heights]], is ultimately revealed at the end to be one of these.

insufficient context. per TRS, ship sinking now must be a scene or plot point which is designed specifically to show the characters will never get together


* ShipSinking: Max uses his powers to convince Guy that Ice, ''Ice'' of all people, attacked him on their last date, ending the relationship. JLI vol.3 indicates this didn't last long, however.

Uncanny Valley is IUEO now and the subjective version has been split; cleaning up misuse and ZCE in the process


* UncannyValley: Invoked by Max, who gives [[spoiler:OMAC Prime his voice, and a human mouth]] to freak the team out.

* BullyingADragon: Max keeps taunting [[spoiler:Jaime even after Jaime escapes. To be specific:[[WhatAnIdiot he goads a 17-year-old with limited control over extremely powerful and sentient armor which the kid has to talk into taking non-lethal options.]]]] He also just ''can't stop himself'' from going after [[spoiler:Franchise/WonderWoman]] again, even though the last time he tried that literally ended with his death.

Up To Eleven is a defunct trope


* {{Flanderization}}: Magog's jerkass tendencies get dialed UpToEleven every time he appears, though at least part of this seems to be [[CharmPerson Max Lord's influence]] at work on him.
