* UnfortunateImplications: The evil [[CorruptCorporateExecutive corporate]]/[[CorruptPolitician political]] [[TheConspiracy cabal]] decide to create a secret group of evil Morituri to serve their needs. The three sociopathic killers selected are an AxCrazy Hispanic killer, a NobleDemon Cambodian assassin, and a Pakistani mercenary who [[WouldHurtAChild slaughters women and children]]. James Hudnall is not being particularly subtle here...

* FanonDiscontinuity: Many fans consider the "true" ''Strikeforce: Morituri'' to be the first twenty issues helmed by Peter Gillis and Brent Anderson. With James Hudnall taking over in issue #21, the stories veered away from [[{{Soaperizing}} character-driven introspection]] to a more conventional GovernmentConspiracy plot with sci-fi trimmings. This change in tone is even more apparent in ''Strikeforce Morituri: Electric Undertow,'' which reads like a {{Cyberpunk}} thriller and bears no resemblance to the original premise.

A little too close to creator-bashing, so softened the language while keeping the point

** The Gentle Inquirer is not only the Va'Shakk's EvilChancellor, but their [[TheStarscream most insidious member]] as well. As sadistic as he is intelligent, the Inquirer directly spearheads most of the race's terror plots against humanity, from razing entire cities; to raining "healer plants" onto crowds to horribly seal up all their orifices and suffocate them to death; to grafting the [[AndIMustScream still-living, perpetually-screaming]] heads of humans, even children, onto attack robots. When his hated rival Thundercrush earns the throne ahead of him after Stark Fist's death, the Inquirer manipulates him into a wasteful nuclear attack that all at once undermines Thundercrush and kills hundreds of Morituri. When the Inquirer finally gains the throne, he implants all of his thousands of human captives with bombs, then releases them in the streets, hoping to either detonate the bombs and mass-murder the loved ones of his prisoners or divide humanity with that same threat always hanging over their heads. Heartless to a point where he revolts even fellow Va'Shakk, the Inquirer readily admits he'd be just at home torturing his own race as much as humanity.

* CreatorsPet: After James Hudnall took over as the writer, Revenge (Jason Edwards) and Scanner (Dan Baker) become the primary protagonists of the series. Everyone else is either relegated to the background with [[FlatCharacter little characterization]] or killed outright.

** The Stark Fist is the original leader of the Va'Shakk, aka "the Horde", and has lead his armies on a [[GalacticConqueror galactic conquest]] that has destroyed hundreds of worlds. Attacking Earth by decimating a variety of its major cities and enslaving countless millions, the Stark Fist engages in acts of terrorizing the world's populace, such as [[ThrownOutTheAirlock ejecting hundreds of innocents into space]] to break the spirits of those who witness the atrocities. When confronted by the Strikeforce, the Stark Fist sadistically shows off [[CreepySouvenir his collection of disembodied heads]] that he uses as trophies before trying to kill them all, then annihilate the entire Earth out of spite.

** Issues 21-23: The brutal commander Wek-Kuu [[EstablishingCharacterMoment introduces himself]] tormenting a group of human hostages and ripping the head off of [[WouldHurtAChild a child]] with his bare hands just to show his contempt for humanity. Attempting to slaughter as many innocent humans as possible, Wek-Kuu [[OrbitalBombardment redirects meteors to strike at the world]] and kill thousands, with Salt Lake City nearly wiped out by the time he is through.
