* WelcomeToCorneria: Private Iron, a robot G.I. who shares a train box with a young Jetlad in ''The Forty-Niners'', can apparently only say the same few sentences over and over. He's later seen at the station, unable to speak in his own defense while questioned about a burglary.
* WesternZodiac: Rather than being named for taunting messages sent to the police as in the real Zodiac, or Dirty Harry's Scorpio, the Libra Killer's moniker comes from the timing of the murders always occurring in the middle of fall, when Libra signs are born.

** The core of Smax's embarrassment about his home dimension. Not that it stops him from participating in it (and lying about it to his co-workers)...
*** Well, except to Robyn. In the ''Smax'' miniseries, not only she knows and keeps their secret but encourages Smax's sister Rexa to come live with him to Neopolis so they can be happy.

* MultipleHeadCase: Dispatcher Linda "Janus" Burnett, like the Roman god, has a face on the back of her head. "Front-Jan" and "Back-Jan" are distinct individuals (even with their own boyfriends) and spend a decent amount of the first series bickering and competing with each other. The events in ''Beyond'' get her to ResignInProtest and go back to her parents (who are two-faced like her) and she's replaced with a ''three''-faced woman named Tara.

* SuperpowerLottery: S.T.O.R.M.S. is an STD given the same seriousness as AIDS, because it permanently mutates whoever contracts it. It's discussed that one may get lucky and end up with incredible superpowers, but are more likely to be given a deforming, debilitating mutation for life.

Peregrine catches her husband experimenting with "crossover dressing", or dressing up as a different science hero than yourself...yourself.
** Smax is very embarrassed about his homeland, a medieval fantasy world. Going there is framed like going to a backwater area that's so rural there's no electricity (because electricity literally doesn't work there), no one has any knowledge of basic sciences like physics, and they practice stereotypically hick customs like BrotherSisterIncest. Smax having a past of being a dragonslayer is comparable to him being a bounty hunter, with him having to go through paperwork for authorizationon his quests.

* DoubleStandard: Irma's prejudice against Joe Pi as not having real emotions, even considering her lingering grief for Sung Li, given that Girl One is also a robot, [[WhatMeasureIsANonHuman but a far more human looking one]], whose own creator denounces not having real emotions.
