History Webcomic / DeviantartSecretWars

%%*StoryBreakerPower: Plague. When he absorbs the powers of a [[HorsemenOfTheApocalypse HORSEMAN OF THE APOCOLYPSE]], he's reached [[UpToEleven beyond this point]]. Whenever Plague appears, [[SeriesContinuityError continuity breaks down]]

* NiceHat
%%** The Empty Suit is never without his fedora.
%%** The Mime has her beret
%%** John Vaugner is almost always seen with his green, military-style hat.
** Shas wears an impressive (albeit oversized) beret that would make Che Guevara jealous.
** Wingstream uses his Baseball cap as his TransformationTrinket: and double functions as his [[HelmetsAreHardlyHeroic Uniform`s helmet]]

The plot starts off identical to the original Marvel version, with heroes and villains getting plucked from different dimensions and placed on opposing sides by the Beyonder. From then on, however, it becomes more apparent that it's not a retelling, as [[LoadsAndLoadsofCharacters each and every character]] follows their own agenda, making for an original storyline filled to the brim with sub-plots.

%%*LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters: And HOW! A character sheet is in the works for this article.

Inspired by, but not to be confused with, the original Marvel Comics publication ComicBook/SecretWars.

%%*BaldOfAwesome:
%%** Steve
%%** Firearm (counts as BaldOfEvil as well).

%%*FiveManBand:

%%*BadassBeard:
%%** For the Heroes, there's Whit.
%%** The Philosopher, but first shown in Chapter 8.
%%** Virtus has one too beneath the mask.
%%** The Villians have Mr. X.
%%** Aqualung counts as well.

%%*BadassMustache: Shas, just Shas.

* AmericaSavesTheDay: Subverted as The Canadian leads the heroes [[spoiler: As of Chapter 7 President X still lives and may soon return to action]].
* AsskickingEqualsAuthority: Zerkov assumes leadership of the villains this way. See EnemyCivilWar below.
* {{Backstory}}: Every single Character has a Backstory. Some of them even revealed in the comic.
* BadassArmy:
** Shas' troops
** Ritualist's Alien Army
* BattleCry:
** Jeanne Nocture; ''"[[ShoutOut AHHH-CHUCK-AHHH-NORRIS]]"''

** During this sequence when GLOB saw a demonic-looking character (Impfrit) [[http://RCWikkydArtist.deviantart.com/art/Secret-Wars-Assumptions-152495486]]
* BeastAndBeauty:
** Rad-Nok and Whisper; Though they're both villains, some parts of this concept still applies to them. Rad-Nok is a murderous and berserk cyborg monster yet when around Whisper he's different and surprisingly even calm. Whisper is gorgeous and intelligent but also obviously not to be messed with. Her telepathic abilities allowed her to "eavesdrop" on Rad-Nok's tender thoughts toward her and she does not seem to mind. It is possible she may also have feelings for Rad-Nok...
** Ritualist and Limi. 'Nuff said.
* BroughtDownToNormal:
** [[spoiler: Joe Hero. Undone at the beginning of Chapter 9.]]
* ChestInsignia:
** Angel
** The Canadian
** Ectogirl
** Gadget Imp

** Stunboy
** Virtus
* ClothingDamage: several characters endure this trope, including...
** Virtus
** Janie Steed
** Mime
** Joe Hero
** Empty Suit
** Jamaican Spider
** The Philosopher
* CombatPragmatist: Suit shoots Dr. Ignatious' flame minions. Unfortunately, GunsAreUseless against them.
* CoolSword: Quite a few characters carry them:
** Aella
** Banana (see KatanasAreJustBetter)
** Eve
** GLOB (when he changes into a crusader knight)
** Shiniku
** Silver Titan (a BFS in anyone else's hands. And no, he's not compensating for anything)
** Steppenwolf
** Wingstream if you count his Jet Pack`s Deatachable [[DoubleWeapon Wings]]
** Yenna (a LaserBlade, no less)
* CrisisCrossover: Just look at it!
* CurbStompBattle:
** Chapter eight: [[spoiler: Zerkov ambushes a group of heroes and proceeds to kill two of them, knock out several, and really scare the shit out of the rest. And when Dr Destiny finally drops the IdiotBall and starts mind raping Zerkov? Plague comes in to to destroy the odds.]]
* DarkIsEvil:
** 105e
** Dave
** Hunter

** The Philosopher
** Ripley
*** Although it's said that she has androgynistic tendencies.
** Steve
** Stunboy
** Virtus
** Wingstream
* DeadPersonImpersonation: [[spoiler: Silver Scarab assumes Champion's identity in Chapter 9]]
* DeathFromAbove: Played straight in Chapter 9 with Shas dropping a satellite on Dr. Ignatious' head at the end of the attack on his arctic fortress.
* DisneyVillainDeath: [[spoiler: Aqualung]]
* DreamingOfThingsToCome: GLOB has a prophetic nightmare that shows him the terrible fate that awaits the new heroes if they are to attack the villains...
* EnemyCivilWar: The villains did have an all-out brawl in the beginning of this story and even after they united, they are still conspiring against each other.
* FaceHeelTurn: [[spoiler: Eve]]
* FastballSpecial: Joe Hero and Suit use this tactic against Chompa.
** Silver Titan does this with Ritualist during the final battle.
* ForGreatJustice: Pretty much most if not all of the heroes
* GameBreaker: In-Universe example. Adrian Axiom's power stealing gun almost becomes this.
** The Philosopher's Stone ([[Manga/FullmetalAlchemist Not that stone]]).
** Plague.
* GladiatorGames: Starts off in Chapter Nine, with the Canadian, Banana, Mime, and Empty Suit ([[spoiler: with Joe Hero and Ritualist also joining the fray]]) fighting against the giant Chompa ([[spoiler: and later Boogeyman]]).
* GondorCallsForAid: [[spoiler: In Chapter 7, Vigil calls for aid from a second wave of heroes. Slight variation though, as she has absolutely no idea who will respond to the call.]]
* GroinAttack: Wren pulls one on one of Crowe's mooks... with a mini ROCKET LAUNCHER.

* FourLinesAllWaiting: With this many characters in one story, there isn't much of a choice.
* HeroicSacrifice:
** Wingstream near the end of Dr. Ignatious base destruction, however his bracelet reveals something else. It is Revealed in Ch. 10 that he survived. More so in Ch. 11 is truly revealed that a hole made by Lord Wormm`s Summoned Alien worms was responsible for Wing`s survival, later on he found a CoolBike CoolPlane to escape the mountain
* HeelFaceTurn: [[spoiler: Jansen, Suzanna, Lot, Mad Alyss and Ritualist]]
* HumiliationConga: Adrian Axiom's authority over the other villains was always tentative at best, but it all went downhill at the beginning of Chapter 9. [[spoiler: Zerkov kicks the conga off by bringing in Joe Hero alive and well, thus exposing Axiom's failure to kill him. Joe destroys Axioms superpower erasing gun, thus regaining his own powers. The Kind-Eyed Father burns Axiom's face as the villains fight amongst themselves. The captured heroes escape after surviving his DeathTrap (see the GladiatorGames entry below). And just to kick him when he's down, Aqualung hocks one of his signature toxic loogies right on Axiom's burned face before taking off.]] Sucks to be Adrian.
* IHaveYouNowMyPretty: Aqualung has a really bad habit of this.
* ImprobableHairstyle: Most of the characters with hair are subject to this trope...
* InterspeciesRomance:
** Ritualist and Limi (human/catgirl)
** Rad-Nok and Whisper (cyborg imp/demonic human)
** Virtus and Yenna (human/half-elf)
* JustFriends:
** GLOB and Yenna; They have been getting along well as friends so far. They have each other's backs in battle and have frequent and friendly chats. Since Yenna is obviously romantically interested in Virtus, it is safe to say that GLOB and Yenna are just good friends...or is it?
* KatanasAreJustBetter: Banana has one.
* KilledOffForReal: [[spoiler: Charybdis and Jansen in Chapter 8]]
** [[spoiler: Champion as well]]
* LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters: And HOW! A character sheet is in the works for this article.
* LoudOfWar: Suit's method of subduing Chompa? Screaming at the top of his lungs. Right in Chompa's ear.
* LoveAtFirstSight:
** Jeanne when see shes Pippin
** Rad-Nok when he sees Whisper
** Aella spotting Virtus
* LoveTriangle:
** Virtus, Yenna, and Aella
* MassiveMultiplayerCrossover
* MirrorMatch: At the Chaos Realm, Wingstream vs [[ThePsychoRangers Nega Wingstream]]
* NoOneCouldSurviveThat:
** Ignatious gets blown away by a falling satellite in chapter 9...
* OhCrap: There are many moments like this, the most recent being [[spoiler: Axiom seeing Joe Hero alive (proven wrong for killing him), watching his gun get destroyed (granting Joe Hero is powers back) and as to face an onslaught of villains for losing their trust.]]
* RedShirtArmy:
** Ignatius' clone army
* SayMyName:
** Champion; ''"SCARAB!"''
** Steve in chapter 8: ''"ZER-KOV!"'', when fighting, you guessed it, Zerkov.
* ShoutOut: The original Secret Wars, obviously.

* ShutUpKiss
** Yenna shuts up Virtus and tells him to kiss her already.
* SupervillainLair:

* SwampsAreEvil: Subverted, since the swamp where the second wave of heroes arrived only became evil [[spoiler: after Slaughter Gray manipulated the trees to attack.]]
* SwissArmyGun: Super Zero owns one of these.
* TheCavalry:
** Shas and his soldiers aiding the new heroes against Dr. Ignatius' flame clone army
* TheCoatsAreOff:
** Banana, when he first fights Slaughter Gray.
** Janie Steed, due to her ice powers resulting in inevitable ClothingDamage.
** Suit loses his among the cacti.
* ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill:
** Shas' satellite strike in Chapter 9, also ending with a NoOneCouldSurviveThat.
* TheVoice:
** GLOB; sometimes he hears a frightening voice in his head that tells him to do horrible things like to kill brutally or to abandon innocents, or other bad things. GLOB usually wins in ignoring the Voice but on rare occasion has obeyed its orders to kill. He is unsure what this voice is but knows it must be a creature of malice.
** Kind-Eyed Father; like GLOB, he too hears a voice in his head. Unlike GLOB, he has heard this voice his whole life and has obeyed and served this voice believing it to be God. It is unknown as to what this voice is but it would be scary if it really IS God.
* WhenTreesAttack: Normal Trees and cacti start to attack heros [[spoiler: while Slaughter Gray commanded the planet.]]
* UnderestimatingBadassery:
** Bait; Just a kid in a hoodie but watch out! He has some tricks up his sleeves...
** Grifter; Just an old homeless guy? Wrong. Being able to pull anything out of his pockets, Grifter can be more formidable than he looks.
** Kid; A weirdly-dressed kid with a killer instinct when bad memories come up!
** Steve; Another kid in a hoodie, right? Wrong! He's got spirit guardians under his command and ready to fight for him.
** Stunboy; though he just looks like a kid dressed like a superhero, he's really a god and kicks ass when the occasion calls for it!
** Whit; he looks like any other bum but Whit can put up a good fight when the need calls for it and he even has powers!
* UnwantedHarem:
** Tilia with a male harem including Wingstream, Bob the Heavy Trooper, Philosopher, and Lord Worm (maybe).
** Virtus with a harem including Yenna, Aella, and Angel

* AccidentalPervert:
** GLOB; He's not a pervert (in fact he's chivalrous and respectful to women) but for some reason he has accidentally been one in the Secret Wars! He bumped into 9-foot tall Ripley...from behind! And when trying to keep Yenna from killing Aella, he holds her back but also unintentionally holds her breasts. It seems he never gets a break in any situation!
* AllGirlsWantBadBoys: Subverted by Virtus (see the ChickMagnet entry below) who is as far from bad as one can be.
* AnIcePerson: Janie Steed
* {{Beastess}}: Limi can be considered as one
* BadassBeard:
** For the Heroes, there's Whit.

* BeastMan:
** Whatchamacallit
** Jamaican Spider seems to fit this trope during Chapter 6.
** Drop Bear
* BerserkButton:
** Never EVER mess with Suit's... suit. [[spoiler: Tick Tock and his goons learn the hard way after getting him wet in the bathroom. Suit still seems rather peeved since losing his jacket among the cacti.]]
** Impfrit's wrath is demonic if you say anything that makes him feel you either fear, mistrust, or hate demons. Also if you make nicknames like Hell Boy.
** If you value your life, don't even SPEAK of harming dragons in front of Yenna. [[spoiler: This contributes to the animosity between her and Aella.]]
* BigEater: Virtus, who gets hungry after a few hours after eating all over again.
* BigOlEyebrows: Super Zero
* BlessedWithSuck:
** Boston, whose powers will kill him without the red bands, or if he overheats in battle.
* BoisterousBruiser: several
** Banana
** Tropical Thunder
** For the villains, there's Zerkov
* CartoonyEyes:
** Super Zero
** Due to the fact this is a collaborative project with many artists with different styles, and no one is restricted to drawing their own character, anybody can get these.
* CelibateHero:
** Canadian
** GLOB
** Shaktu
** Shaz
** Silver Titan
** Super Zero
* ChickMagnet: Virtus. He and Angel were once an item long before the war started. (Still are, to some level, due to his polyamorous nature) Yenna and Aella are drawn to his 'good guy charm' as well, sparking a love triangle to fuel their cat fights amongst one another.
* CivvieSpandex: basically anyone who wears regular clothes, including...

** Whit qualifies as well
* CombatMedic:
** Eve is an alien, Vangonite to be precise, with the ability to heal others and herself and is very good with her sword.
** Jasmine can use her powers to heal others if she focuses on it.
** GLOB can use his blood to heal others' wounds with one drop (he uses a canteen full of it to do so).
* CorruptCorporateExecutive:
** Adrian Axiom
** Johnathan Steero
* CourtJester: Obviously, the Jester.
* CrazyHomelessPeople: Aqualung plays this one straight. Whit subverts it.

** Fem Plague
** Ivory
** Jigsaw Jill
** Limi
** Raggedy Annie
** Scarlet
** Valdera
* DidIJustSayThatOutloud?: Most of Chapter 7 for Jester.
* DirtyOldMan: Inverted; While the Philosopher is quite old (last clocked in at 1000 years), he is relatively handsome and doesn't personally chase after women. They actually come to him. According to the storyline, he's at least had three straight meetings with three other females (Tilia, Aella, and Ectogirl) [[spoiler:(4, is you include Vigil from before Secret Wars)]]

* GeneralFailure: Adrian Axiom. Nothing seems to go right since he took command of the villains.
* GeniusBruiser: I know there's some of these around.
** Boston; due to his obsession with reading books, it's assumed that he is very knowledgeable.
** Watchamacallit; though he seems brutish and tends to talk more with his fists, he was a scientist so he may be more intelligent than others may think
** The Mime; While her martial arts skills are beyond master level, she is also a sharp detective with telepathic abilities.
* GentleGiant:
** Silver Titan; he's usually quiet (out of shyness) but is quick to help his new allies.
* GreenSkinnedSpaceBabe:
** Charybdis
* GunsAkimbo:
** Blaze
* {{Gunslinger}}:
** Jeanne Nocturne, is running around with a couple of firearms.
** Blaze; Thanks to her super-fast reflexes she can shoot pretty fast.
* HandsomeLech:
** Ritualist, though he achieves ChivalrousPervert status later on.
* HardDrinkingPartyGirl: Janie Steed qualifies, as she's transported to Battle World with drink still in hand.
* HeavenSeeker:
** GLOB
* HomelessHero:
** Grifter
** Whit
* IKnowMaddenKombat: Wingstream plays this straight with his soccer inspired fighting style then is upgraded with his Quarterblast form which is inspired in american football
* InnocentFanserviceGirl: Ectogirl shows signs of this (she is first seen in a long t-shirt and fuzzy slippers); considering she's [[DeadAllAlong a ghost]].
* InTheHood:
** GLOB
** Dr. Destiny
** The Plaguebringers
* JackOfAllTrades:
** John Vaugner shows great flexibility in the usage of his powers (all the way from telekinesis, to power beams, to heat vision), but doesn't show mastery in any certain one (though he may use some more than others). He's a balanced character, through and through.
* KillerRabbit: Professor Poison, even though he's actually a teddy bear, fits the trope nicely.
** Go Cat counts as well.
* KnightInShiningArmor:
** GLOB; Noble to his allies, always helpful to those in danger, and willing to fight for good, GLOB fits well for this role.

** Super Zero owns quite impressive one.

* PlayingWithFire:
** Tilia can because its an inherit ability in elves.

* SuperSenses:
** Ritualist has an enhanced sense of smell, despite losing his sense of sight.
* SuperMode: Once Again Wingstream gets this by assuming his Quarterblast Form, also Virtus regains his symbont powers, [[spoiler: Ritualist (fused with Jovan`s remains) could count as well]]
* SquishyWizard:
** Jasmine is physically very weak also rarely in the condition to communicate. Her psychic powers on the other hand are rather strong.

** Yenna's a half-elf, but still.
* TheMole: It is revealed that the Jester had became this in Chapter 10.
* SupportingLeader:
** GLOB
* TheStarscream: Several, but Adrian Axiom is the most upfront when it comes to undermining Zerkov's leadership.
* TheTeamNormal:
** Subverted; Team Normal, which consisted of Bait, Kid, and Steve, teamed up because the three seemed like normal [[TagalongKid tagalong kids]], [[spoiler: where in fact Bait has mysterious powers, Kid is a half-angel, and Steve is possessed by... Halloween monsters. ]]
* TerribleTrio:
** Tick Tock and his Clock Troopers
** Ubus Mellus and his Uber Mels
* ThoseWackyNazis: Blitz
* UselessSuperpowers:
** The Empty Suit: He's invisible, but he never takes off his suit, which kinda defeats the point.
*** He's basically CursedWithAwesome, only he doesn't realize the awesome.
* VainSorceress:
** Ivory (except she's not old)
** Whisper
* ViolentGlaswegian: Janie Steed and The Philosopher seem to avert this trope. Though both are Scots who've seen their share of combat, they're not nearly as rowdy as the trope implies.
* VoluntaryShapeshifting

* WarriorPoet: The Philosopher fits this, being a proud Scotsman and quoting famous tacticians and thinkers.
* WeakButSkilled: There are a few of them.

* BonusMaterial:
** Pretty much all the extra stuff the artists involved draw when they aren't drawing pages for the latest chapter!

** The Empty Suit
** Johnathan Steero
** Lot Tiergan
** Adrian Axiom
** Super Zero

** Steero
** Blitz

* StoryBreakerPower: Plague. When he absorbs the powers of a [[HorsemenOfTheApocalypse HORSEMAN OF THE APOCOLYPSE]], he's reached [[UpToEleven beyond this point]]. Whenever Plague appears, [[ContinuityError continuity breaks down]]

Inspired by, but not to be confused with, the original Marvel Comics publication SecretWars.

* DirtyOldMan:Inverted; While the Philosopher is quite old (last clocked in at 1000 years), he is relatively handsome and doesn't personally chase after women. They actually come to him.

* HighOctaneNightmareFuel:
** Psycho in his symbiotic form
** Kind-Eyed Father in his hellish fury
** GLOB (not a villain but in battle YourMileageMayVary)
