* OriginStory: The origins of the various Aegis agents that appear are told throughout the story.

* AdaptationalNationality: The Alternate of Rosalind Price that leads the Portland Aegis team is German-American because [[ActorSharedBackground that is the nationality of her actress.]]

* AdaptationalNameChange: Aegis's Chrome is named Jennifer ''Swann'' instead of ''Swensen''. Per Word of God, it was in homage to pro wrestler Rich Swann.

* ColorCodedCharacters: As a nod to Power Rangers, the main Agents often wear clothing of one particular color: Red (Chrome), Blue (All-American and Silver Sabre), Yellow (Gyral), Green (Haywire), Purple (Quartz)

* AffirmativeActionLegacy: Silver Sabre is one of those. The original Super Sabre was the white Martin Fletcher. His descendant, Keiko Miyamoto, is a bisexual Japanese-American.

* DarkSkinnedRedhead: Jennifer Swann, aka Chrome, has red hair thanks to Terrigenesis. She is African-American and Native American (particularly of the [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Choctaw Choctaw tribe]]). This is also a ShoutOut to her original New Universe counterpart, who was a redhead.

* SolarPunk: The city of Portland's interest is going green has gone full blown UpToEleven after the Vanishing, with lots of hanging gardens and green power. [[spoiler:This is a problem for Hexxus, who decides to change that. Because of the Vanishing, Portland itself has become the very antithesis of his existence.]]

* BackFromTheDead: [[spoiler: Played with in Haywire's case. The Avengers ''thought'' he died in the miniseries ''Avengers: Celestial Quest'', but this story establishes that it was faked and Haywire was actually brought forward in time.]]

* DarkSkinnedRedhead: Jennifer Swann, aka Chrome, has red hair thanks to Terrigenesis. She is African-American and Native American. This is also a ShoutOut to her counterpart to her original New Universe counterpart, who was a redhead.

* TakeThat: When the second Iceman recalls learning of the events of ''ComicBook/DeathOfX'' and ''ComicBook/InhumansVsXMen'' (those crises never happened in his native timeline), he thinks the [[WhoWritesThisCrap whole thing was pure insanity]]. The author disliked those stories as he felt they made the X-Men and the Inhumans look like complete idiots. Per Word of God, those stories never happened in Aegis's original timeline either.
* TheBusCameBack: [[http://www.marvunapp.com/Appendix3/nightcatjt.htm Jacqueline "Nightcat" Tavarez.]] She only appeared in one comic from 1991 and that was it. In Aegis's original timeline, she continued her musical/crimefighting careers, until she encountered Aegis. During that point, the serum that gave her her powers had stated to cause her DNA to destabilize, potentially causing a painful death. Aegis was able to cure her, but at the cost of mutating her further into the feline appearance she has at the start of the story.
** Also applies to [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haywire_(comics) Hal "Haywire" Danforth]]. He appeared in the 1980s ''Squadron Supreme'' miniseries, and died in the 2001 miniseries ''[[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avengers:_Celestial_Quest Avengers: Celestial Quest]]''. The story explains his return from the grave ([[spoiler:turns out he never really died, he was brought forwards in time by a supervillain]]), but also gives an explanation as to how he got his powers in the first place. The story also delves into his personal life (notably revealing he is Jewish), and also explains where he was where Nighthawk recruited him to the America Redeemers, something the original ''Squadron Supreme'' miniseries never did.

** There also was a [[NoodleIncident Noodle Incident]] mentioned in which during an Aegis investigation, Haywire encountered an alt of his deceased lover Inertia, and it freaked him out. It led Haywire to grumble he hates the Coreline sometimes.
* WrenchWench: Chrome is showing fixing up an Aegis vehicle. The story established that she worked as a mechanic before becoming an Aegis agent.

Currently under construction. Please add tropes as you see them!

* BadassMustache: Doctor Starwind sports an epic handlebar.

* TheAllAmericanBoy: Giovanni "Jack" Magniconte is meant to be a modern take on the concept. The story establishes that before Aegis, he was a high school quarterback, popular with girls, and even managed to have friends from the various archetypical high-school "cliques". Even his codename reflects it: All-American. It's also a nod to his being an American football player.

* EightiesHair: Amir "Gyral" Khosrow's hairstyle is meant to evoke Keith's mullet in ''WesternAnimation/VoltronLegendaryDefender''.
* AdaptationalNameChange: Aegis's Chrome is named Jennifer ''Swann'' instead of ''Swensen''.

* {{Deconstruction}}: Supergirl remembers her death at the hands of the Anti-Monitor in ''ComicBook/CrisisOnInfiniteEarths'', and it has left her traumatized. She admits to having nightmares about it, and seeing the red skies TERRIFY her, as she believes they are a sign the Anti-Monitor is coming back. To ReincarnateInAnotherWorld is not always pleasant. It's [[{{Reconstruction}} reconstructed]] by Supergirl saying that she is regularly attending therapy sessions, and she's in a place where she can actually get some help for her trauma.

* RedSkiesCrossover: Literally, with the skies over Portland getting a deep red tint ''ComicBook/CrisisOnInfiniteEarths''-style while all hell breaks loose, which is even lampshaded. By an actual veteran of the Crisis.

* SolarPunk: The city of Portland's interest is going green has gone full blown UpToEleven after the Vanishing, with lots of hanging gardens and green power. [[spoiler:This is a problem for Hexxus, who decides to change that, as thanks to the Vanishing, Portland itself has become the very antithesis of his existence.]]

Taryn Fujioka, Aegis's PR expert, is based on the character from ''X-Men: Evolution''. All-American and Chrome are based on characters that appeared as part of Marvel's ''ComicBook/TheNewUniverse'' line in the 1980s. It's also established that Aegis's original timeline had a version of [[http://www.marvunapp.com/Appendix/clerkhsl.htm Henry Clerk]], the Big Bad of another obscure Marvel imprint from the 80s: [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shadowline_(Epic_Comics) The Shadowline Saga]].

* FunnyAnimal: The alt of Jim Hawkins that appears in this story is an anthropomorphic raccoon. Which makes sense as he's an amalgam of the original Jim and Rocket Raccoon.

* ShoutOut: The Jim Hawkins alt here speaks with a Cockney accent. This is a nod to Greg Ellis's vocals as Rocket Raccoon in ''Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3'' and ''The Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes''.

** Also hinted at is a mentioned Noodle Incident in which Haywire encountered an alt of his deceased girlfriend Inertia during an Aegis investigation and got really freaked out. For some, the Coreline can bring up some emotional issues.

** There also was a [[NoodleIncident]] mentioned in which during an Aegis investigation, Haywire encountered an alt of his deceased lover Inertia, and it freaked him out. It led Haywire to grumble he hates the Coreline sometimes.
