YMMV / Killraven

• Bizarro Episode: Amazing Adventures #33 (November 1975), which freely cops to being a filler issue to begin with, has Killraven stumbling on a secret society of African-Americans who quite literally went underground en masse after the Martians showed. He's nearly sacrificed to a tentacle monster, which causes these people to decide they'll stop living in caves and go topside. Killraven returns to the others to find they're all still asleep, apparently having experienced a case of Year Inside, Hour Outside.
  • The society is portrayed with the appearance of stereotypical African tribesmen and the leader speaks in stereotypical pidgin, which is VERY winceworthy.
• Complete Monster: This duo from Amazing Adventures Volume 2, issues 27-31:
  • Atalon the Fear Master is the administrator of the Death-Birth facility. Willingly selling out to the Martian regime, Atalon keeps countless slaves imprisoned where he forces them to breed, all so he may have the babies butchered and served to the tables of the Martian overlords, gloating frequently at his power over his slaves. Atalon intends to have one of the "Eves" slaughtered with her child by the evil Sacrificer, and when they escape, Atalon intends on hunting down and butchering them all, more concerned with the injury to his ego than anything else.
  • Sacrificer is a major figure at the Death-Birth facility. A twisted "artist" who views the slaughter and mutilation of others as his calling, the Sacrificer butchers countless children to feed the Martians and slaughters any in his path in the process. Wishing nothing more than to hurt and twist the flesh of others, the Sacrificer throws himself into the pursuit of Killraven and his comrades to torture them all as much as he wants.
• Diagnosed by the Audience: Old Skull has a rather child-like nature and often refers to himself in the third person. It's unclear if this is due to some sort of mental deficiency or if there's some other factor at work.
• Hilarious in Hindsight: The prediction that TV would fall out of phase in the 90s is pretty giggle worthy in itself, but the description of its replacement, a simulated reality system where you control the story, is just basically video games.
• My Real Daddy: It was Roy Thomas who came up with the original idea, Gerry Conway who wrote the first two issues, but Don McGregor was the one who wrote pretty much all of Killraven's exploits (barring the odd filler issue).
• They Wasted a Perfectly Good Character: The series has a lot of characters who make one-off appearances then just vanish into the aether, like Mint Julep and her freewomen.
