* TheAlliance: {{Inverted}} - The Alliance forms to stop [[TheEmpire The Good Empire]] from curtailing their evil ways. [[spoiler:And is secretly being led by the original leader of the Empire.]]

* BeMyValentine: Valentine D'Eath is a swaggering, boastful alien ProfessionalKiller.

* EverythingsBetterWithDinosaurs: One of the antagonist races is called the Teknosaurs. And yes, they're a race of [[NinjaPirateZombieRobot cyborg dinosaurs]].

* HumanitysWake: [[SubvertedTrope There is one last human, Major Thorn]], who [[ButWhatAboutTheAstronauts survived the destruction of Earth due to being on the ISS]]... then [[DoubleSubversion he is killed on the third page]], and the universe becomes a post-human one.

* FakeOutOpening: The comic opens with the last survivor of the human race, an astronaut from the International Space Station named [[MajorlyAwesome Major Thorn]], narrating how the Earth was swallowed up by a HordeOfAlienLocusts that came out of nowhere. This clearly sets up a human-centered AfterTheEnd scenario where the plucky wisecracking hero possibly becomes a wandering warrior or freedom fighter against the evil Empire and ultimately prove that HumansAreSpecial. He's [[DecoyProtagonist unceremoniously killed off]] not two pages later, as the plot shifts to its ''real'' story: the war between the KillerRobot Shakara and the AlwaysChaoticEvil Hierarchy.
