Added DiffLines:

* AmbiguousEnding: A FreezeFrameBonus shows that Cyborg was able to fire one last shot before being whisked away. Whether or not he made the shot or if this was the reason the village defeated Krall is left up to the viewer.


Added DiffLines:

* ButNowIMustGo: Cyborg tries to distance himself from the villagers after saving them because he knows the longer he stays the harder it will be to leave.


Added DiffLines:

* ChronicHeroSyndrome: At first, Cyborg avoids interfering with the past [[GenreSavvy to avoid accidentally affecting the future.]] However, seeing Sarasim overwhelmed by one of the monsters makes him throw caution to the wind and lend a hand.
-->'''Cyborg:''' Monkeys or not, [[PreAssKickingOneLiner it's time someone went Bronze Age on your butt!]]


Added DiffLines:

* FreezeFrameBonus: Baby Warp from "How Long Is Forever" makes a cameo during Cyborg's time-travel fantasy.


Added DiffLines:

* IChooseToStay: Once Cyborg discovers the truth, he chooses to stay and help the village, history be damned.
* ImmortalApathy: The witch only begrudgingly serves Krall because he freed her from eternal slumber. That said, she has no reservations about the damage and devastation caused by Krall's wishes.


Added DiffLines:

* NeverMyFault: Krall never accepts responsibility for his actions, blaming the witch for granting his wishes improperly, not realizing he [[CouldHaveAvoidedThisPlot could have prevented everything]] by not abusing the witch’s power in the first place.


Added DiffLines:

* OutOfGenreExperience: For Cyborg, as he is forced to fight in a time period without technology or any of his usual futuristic weapons.


Added DiffLines:

* SendMeBack: Quoted by Cyborg, when the Titans unwittingly retrieve him from the worst possible moment. Unfortunately, Raven's spell was irreversible. Though the tribe end up winning the battle anyway.


Added DiffLines:

* SuddenVideoGameMoment: When Cyborg is trying to avoid the battle, the art-style shifts to a parody of Frogger.


Added DiffLines:

* WorfHadTheFlu: Ordinarily, Cyborg would have had no trouble defeating Krall in single combat but with his battery nearly drained he stood little chance, especially with the witch assisting Krall.
* WrongGenreSavvy: Cyborg thinks any action he takes in the past could end up changing the future via ButterflyOfDoom however Raven's book seems to imply that his time-travel journey was all part of a StableTimeLoop.

* MythologyGag: "Sarasim" is a homophone of "Sarah Simms", who was Cyborg's love interest in the comics. A later comic has Sarah Simms actually appearing and looking [[IdenticalGrandson looking like Sarasim]], and is implied to be a descendant.

* EngineeredHeroism: Krall forces the Witch to make him look heroic in front of his tribe by creating powerful beasts for him to defeat. Unfortunately for him, she is a JackassGenie and these monsters end up humiliating him at every turn instead. It gets worse for him once Cyborg ends up in his time period.

** Despite that, Cyborg's escapades in the past doesn't seem to affect the present in any way; you'd expect Cyborg introducing the concept of electricity, laser cannons and robotics to an ancient tribe would result in a ''massive'' leap in technology, but nothing happens.
