1	----
2	* AlternateCharacterInterpretation: The four main cast members who had appeared in canon before this title.
3	* AntiClimaxBoss: After their extensive buildup and the individual introductions of their backstories, the New Paramounts (with the exception of Forbush Man) are mostly brushed aside with minimal effort. Giant-Sam gets one-shotted by Tabby, causing him to fall backwards and crush the Bulk, and while Charlie America lands one decent hit on Elsa, he only pisses her off when he taunts her, causing her to simply blow him away. And even Forbush Man, despite incapacitating 4/5 of the team with his mental powers, gets blown up by Tabby when she [[NoSell turns out to be]] [[TooDumbToFool too empty-headed to be affected by them]].
4	* SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic: How many other twelve issue comic series have their own [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xuosmf1_mKs Theme Song]]?
5	* CrossesTheLineTwice: All over the place, such as the suicidal teddy bear. Also, evil beam-shooting Stephen Hawkings getting massacred by the team.
6	%%* CultClassic
7	* HarsherInHindsight:
8	** For a little while, anyway -- Dirk Anger's "I have reinvented suicide as a group activity. Go me" line turned rather sour as the investigation of the March 24, 2015 [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Germanwings_Flight_9525 Germanwings plane crash]] unfolded.
9	** The line about Monica's mother being used as a bucket in Hell, while funny, becomes much less amusing when a villain in ''ComicBook/MightyAvengers'' throws it back at her, especially since Monica loved her mother.
10	** Rorkanu's request for "Girls" in chapter 7 becomes this in light of Warren Ellis's later sexual abuse allegations. Especially since the "Suicide Girls" that he asks for match the general profiles of the women Ellis is alleged to have groomed.
11	* HilariousInHindsight:
12	** A S.H.I.E.L.D.-like organization which was infiltrated by their opposite number and is now controlled by it? [[spoiler:''ComicBook/SecretWarriors'' went and had that same reveal a few years later, only with SHIELD itself. And then the MCU followed suit.]].
13	** [[ComicBook/CaptainAmerica Captain America]] beating seven shades of ☠☠☠☠ out of the Captain, and leaving him in a dumpster with a bar of soap in his mouth? [[Film/AvengersAgeOfUltron Language]].
14	* RescuedFromTheScrappyHeap: All of the Nextwave team members from their respective original series (save for The Captain, who was created for the comic). Oh, and [[spoiler:Forbush Man]].
