* UnintentionalPeriodPiece: During "The Final Solution", while Middenface is writing a letter to Durham Red, "Sneck the poll tax" can be seen written down on one of the pages. This is a reference to Margaret Thatcher's controversial poll tax introduced in Scotland in 1989 and England and Wales in 1990, when the story was published. The poll tax was abolished just a year later.

* CompleteMonster: [[ArchnemesisDad Nelson]] Bunker [[PresidentEvil Kreelman]] is a staunch [[FantasticRacism anti-mutant]] politician in New Britain. Starting a [[ANaziByAnyOtherName Nazi-esque movement of "Kreelers"]], he institutes various anti-mutant policies to force them into ghettos and refugee camps in the bombed-out wastelands to slowly starve. When his son [[TheProtagonist Johnny Alpha]] is born with a mutation and fearing that this might hurt his political career, he [[AbusiveParents frequently abuses his son]] before trying to lock him up forever. The rebel mutant army succeeds in capturing most of the government, but Kreelman tells them to go ahead and kill the hostages anyway, figuring he can rule the country alone. Meanwhile he has 100 mutants executed every hour until the rebels surrender. Finding out that Johnny is among the captured mutant generals, he eagerly [[OffingTheOffspring orders his execution]]. Kreelman then begins the construction of death camps to destroy the entire mutant population of New Britain, but is forced to resign by the prime minister when they realize he's gone too far and becomes a fugitive. He resurfaces years later to get revenge on Johnny, secretly taking over the Search/Destroy agency to frame Johnny and his allies, and later personally overseeing his son's [[ColdBloodedTorture slow death by torture]].
