* MoralEventHorizon: John Wing, leader of the Coalition in the early issues, doesn't initially seem to be much at first when he's completely thrashed by the Blood Syndicate and sent running away with tears in his eyes. In the sixth issue, however, Wing flies over the horizon when he murders his pregnant wife to summon a demonic entity to kill his enemies in payback for being humiliated, leading to the most brutal, sadistic thrashing the team ever receives as a result. While Wing does show some regrets over the situation, he exults in the feeling he gets when he ''knows'' he's "damned for eternity," allowing the Demon Fox he summoned to kill him at the end without a moment's regret.

* EnsembleDarkhorse: Aquamaria is one of the less prominent team members due to the LanguageBarrier and is one of the few characters to almost be killed off, but she's one of the most popular characters for the Hispanic representation she provides and her BlessedWithSuck ElementalPowers.

* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodCharacter: Tech-9. The series might not have covered the groundbreaking areas it did if he remained leader, but his charisma and unique firearms-based powers make it disappointing that he's killed off after just five issues rather than remaining part of the team in a non-leadership capacity.
* WatchedItForTheRepresentation: Like many ''Milestone'' titles, minority characters are the heroes, but this series has an entire team of well-developed characters from a wide range of ethnicities and backgrounds (African-American, Asian, Hispanic, homosexual, and transexual, sometimes with overlap), and attracts more of this sentiment than most of its other titles.

** [[TheEmperor The Jade Emperor]] himself is the series' GreaterScopeVillain and the immortal [[AbusiveParents father]] of Kwai and the Demon Fox. The Jade Emperor has had hundreds of daughters and set up Kwai in particular into a ViciousCycle where her psychopath of a sister would slaughter everything around them and engineer cataclysms. Every life stolen over seventy-seven cycles by the Demon Fox and all the agony has occurred in Kwai's life is primarily so the Jade Emperor and his buddies have a cheap game to routinely gamble on. When Kwai finally reaches him and begs him to be free of the cycle, the Jade Emperor decides to grant her wish by condemning his daughter to death without resurrection. Ultimately, the terrible cycle in which the Jade Emperor has trapped his daughters can only fully be broken by [[HeroicSacrifice Kwai sacrificing herself]] to take down the Demon Fox.

** "[[EvilMatriarch Mother]]" is the leader of SYSTEM's Amber Cell, the division of the supervillain conspiracy responsible for biological experimentation. Mother kidnaps droves of Bang Babies to have them [[PlayingWithSyringes tortuously experimented on]], [[AndIMustScream alive and begging for death]], until they expire. Mother fills up meat lockers with the bodies of failed experiments, dismissing them all as raw meat, and brainwashes many of the few survivors into obedient weapons for SYSTEM. Mother is also a [[BadBoss horrendous boss]], blowing out the brains one of her own men for messing up an assignment and trying to have another of her own men "retired", partly due to the man's rebellion but also due to him being stuck with terminal cancer.
** The Demon Fox, the Lord of Lies, is a sinister spirit and the [[CainAndAbel sister]] of the Chinese warrior Kwai. As part of a divine game arranged by her and Kwai's sociopathic immortal father, the Jade Emperor, the Demon Fox has lived for seventy-seven cycles killing and ruining everything around her [[ForTheEvulz for fun]], earning her sobriquet by tormenting her victims with twisted lies. Invoked to kill the Blood Syndicate by the corrupt John Wing, the Demon Fox [[MindRape mentally breaks]] and brutalizes them first before casually snapping Wing's neck after she feels she's fulfilled his wishes. The Demon Fox continues to play more mind games with the team while posing as John Wing's wife, convincing Masquerade to impersonate the Blood Syndicate's deceased leader for so long Masquerade loses her identity, and possibly even making Brickhouse miscarry her child. Even when freed from the game by Kwai, the Demon Fox spitefully states she'll continue to deny her sister anything close to a loved one for the rest of their lives.

* CompleteMonster: The sinister spirit known only as the Demon Fox is the [[CainAndAbel sister]] of the Chinese warrior Kwai, and has lived for seventy-seven cycles bringing death and ruin to everything around her [[ForTheEvulz for fun]]. An [[EmotionEater emotional vampire]] known who fashions herself as the "Lord of Lies", the Demon Fox has a special tendency to torment her victims by twisting the truth to hurt them, demonstrating this when the leader of the Coalition, John Wing, summons her to kill the Blood Syndicate. Unsatisfied with simply slaughtering them, the Demon Fox [[MindRape mentally breaks]] and brutalizes them first before casually snapping Wing's neck after she feels she's fulfilled his wishes. Throughout the rest of the comic's run, the Demon Fox convinces Masquerade to assume the identity of the Blood Syndicate's deceased leader, causing her to lose her own identity in the process; makes Brickhouse miscarry her own child out of spite; and, when finally freed from the cycle imposed on her by her father and offered peace by Kwai, the Demon Fox simply [[RedemptionRejection sneers]] and pledges herself to destroying her sister and everyone close to her for the rest of her life to deny her any semblance of a normal life--something she's already dedicated herself to doing from the very start of their long conflict. A monstrous sadist, the Demon Fox was among the very worst the Blood Syndicate ever had to face.
