* CurbStompBattle- ''Heroes Requiem''. Not only does Demonos handily defeat characters from various Marvel comics, the ''way'' he does some in is a bit extreme- [[spoiler: Professor X's cybernetic legs are crushed, the Franchise/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles are de-volved into regular turtles, Storm is sent to space, Iceman is incinerated, Cyclops's eyes are sewn shut, Wolverine is decapitated, Spider-Man's back is broken, and Dr. Strange is skinned alive.]]
* DealWithTheDevil-"Crooked Deal" on ''The War For Infinity'' has Demonos making a literal deal with the devil for the Gauntlet of Infinity.
* TheExile- Adam [=WarRock=] (the character) was once a great hero, a legendary figure. After defending the world for years, some felt he was no longer needed, so he went into exile in orbit until he such a time comes when he's needed again.
* {{Expy}} - Adam [=WarRock=] for Adam Warlock; Demonos for Thanos
* FreudianExcuse- "Bad Mother (Villainy)" runs through a list of possible excuses to blame for Demonos' rampage. It ends with "Blame on whatever you want if it helps; but the reason he's standin' here, [[YouBastard you can blame it on yourself.]]
* GrowingUpSucks- "Old Man River," from ''The Long Road Home''. A great deal of the song's about outgrowing your dreams and just settling for "good enough". Knox's verse opens with perhaps the best example-

* HoistByHisOwnPetard- Both [[spoiler: Mysterio and Kraven]] in the Sinister Six Megatrack. Judging by his laughter and coughing, [[spoiler:Mysterio]] is affected by his own gas, while [[spoiler: Kraven is devoured by his wildcats]]

* IdentityAbsorption- "Madrox" on ''My X-Factor EP'' follows one of Multiple Man's duplicates (#40) trying to absorb all the others [[KillAndReplace as well as the original]]. [[spoiler: Unfortunately, he the fails- the last line of the song is "Now I've just absorbed 40, you can call me 'Number One.'"]]

* InspirationNod- Heroes Requiem uses the same characters as Last Empire's "Secret Wars"
* {{Masocore}}- Released a song about the genre, appropriately titled "Masocore".
* MeaningfulRename- Maybe. See this line from "Six Million Dollar Flow"
