History ComicBook / Warheads

Liger and Stacy also went on to join the Marvel UK team book ''Dark Guard'', whereas Che became part of another team, the ''ComicBook/ShadowRiders''.

* ArbitraryMinimumRange: Played with. Sentient gun Clementine can still do an awful lot of damage up close, but her full power - which can level cities - needs a safe distance. And she’ll refuse to use it when the target’s too near.

* EvolvingWeapon: Clementine, who is regularly learning new abilities.

* AwesomeMccoolname: Colonel Tigon Liger
* BadassLongcoat: Colonel Liger

* PercussiveTherapy: After having to shoot a colleague who was infected and transformed, new recruit Leona works through her feelings by ranting at a training simulation of her boss, Colonel Liger. And then shooting it.

* PercussiveTherapy: Leona works off some post-mission stress by shooting a robot duplicate of Liger in the Rehearsal Room.

* PragmaticVillainy: A flashback story shows Kether Troop stealing Liger’s sentient gun Clementine from the corporate city of Numeropolis, killing dozens of guards in the process. The corporation eventually identifies the thieves and hires Death’s Head to deal with them... instructing him to tell Liger he’s welcome to keep the gun as long as he pays the outstanding fees.

* VampireEpisode: The ''Black Dawn'' miniseries, where Kether Troop end up in an alternative world overrun by FeralVampires.

* KiManipulation: Che was trained by a Shaolin monastery to channel his chi into super-powered blows.

** When Kether Troop are [[DreamLand caught inside Wolverine and Psylocke’s dreams]], Wolverine’s mindscape replays the classic Weapon X storyline while Psylocke’s shows part of the [[ComicBook/ACrookedWorld Jaspers Warp]] saga.

Many years later, when the Marvel UK books were celebrated by the ''Revolutionary War'' event, Liger returned as one of the main characters.

* OurWormholesAreDifferent: Kether Troop end up on different worlds, in the past, in the future and in other dimensions. But they don’t seem to visit any of the alternate worlds seen so often in other Marvel books such as ''ComicBook/{{Exiles}}'' and ''ComicBook/WhatIf''.

After the initial ongoing series ended, the Warheads returned in a miniseries, ''Black Dawn'', which dropped Kether Troop into an alternate Manhattan full of vampires.

After the initial ongoing series ended, the Warheads returned in a miniseries, ''Black Dawn''.

** Duncan loses his right arm on one mission - it’s replaced with a cybernetic arm. [[spoiler:Then he loses his left arm on the next mission]].

** In ''ComicBook/GeneDogs'', Q7’s Automaton is a reprogrammed robot retrieved by Warheads. Villain Otomo is also an ex-Warhead and his company’s success is built around technology he stole in those days.

** In ''Gene Dogs'', Q7’s Automaton is a reprogrammed robot retrieved by Warheads.

* TheAnticipator: In ''Revolutionary War'', Liger cautiously approaches Master Key’s safe house, aware that it’s been many years and the magician’s been living there in secret and isn’t expecting company. Master Key opens the door before he even has a chance to knock.

** Che is mentioned in an early issue as the sole survivor of his troop. When he eventually joins Kether Troop, he’s their only new recruit who both survives and becomes a recurring member. A flashback in the later ''Shadow Riders'' series shows what happened and is key to another character’s origin.

* UnexplainedRecovery: Stacy, Leona and Che are all back on the squad in ''Revolutionary War''’s flashback to the fall of Mys-Tech. When last seen, Che was dead and resurrected in a monstrous undead form (in ''Shadow Riders''), Leona was a vampire abandoned in another world (in ''Black Dawn'') and Stacy was a lost amnesiac (in ''Dark Guard''). Perez also returns, but the story acknowledges that he’d died and mentions that he [[OffscreenMomentOfAwesome escaped hell and returned to life]].

* VillainHasAPoint: Rathcoole is a BadBoss who treats the Warheads as utterly disposable. This is reinforced when he instructs Mr Grant to execute Che because he’s sole survivor of his troop. As the reader discovers (much) later, Che was TheMole, so this was a wise move. Too bad Mr Grant disobeyed the order.

** Che is mentioned in an early issue as the sole survivor of his troop. When he eventually joins Kether Troop, he’s their only new recruit who both survives and becomes a recurring member.

* HeelFaceReturn: Master Key. At the end of the Warheads series, he [[spoiler: wasn’t seen rebelling with Kether Troop]]. When we see him in the Warheads ''Revolutionary War'' story, in flashback, he’s [[spoiler: directly backing their final attack on Mys-Tech]].

* UnexplainedRecovery: Stacy, Leona and Che are all back on the squad in ''Revolutionary War''’s flashback to the fall of Mys-Tech. When last seen, Che was dead and transformed (in ''Shadow Riders''), Leona was a vampire abandoned in another world (in ''Black Dawn'') and Stacy was a lost amnesiac (in ''Dark Guard''). Perez also returns, but the story acknowledges that he’d died and mentions that he [[OffscreenMomentOfAwesome escaped hell and returned to life]].
