** SpiritualAntithesis: On the other hand, ''Extinctioners'' is also this from ''Albedo'' as well: Both titles deals with furry characters who were created by outside forces outside their own understanding, and in both cases [[spoiler:humans are behind their creation]]. The difference lies in the fact, while in ''Albedo'', the Creators are very ambiguous beings whose true intentions aren't completely known; all that's certain is that they created life as a part of a social scientific experiment just to know how they can react without the need of [[spoiler:humans]]. In ''Extinctioners'', on the other hand, their equivalent (The Makers), as far as we know, are mostly ''evil'' and the story makes it painfully clear that the anthropomorphic cast were created by [[spoiler:the humans]] just to save their own asses. ''How'' evil is really still in the air. Another main difference is, while in ''Albedo'' the main cast were put on a distant planet by the Creators, in ''Extinctioners'' [[spoiler:the whole setting turns out to be [[EarthAllAlong a renamed Earth]] instead]].
** Despite belonging to a very different genre, ''Extinctioners'' can be this towards ''VideoGame/NierAutomata'', of all things: While both stories deal with an unusual alien invasion and how the heroes tries to deal with it, while explaining extremely complex themes, in ''Extinctioners'' [[spoiler:the invaders are the human race, who are trying to reclame their homeland by sending a mixed group of humans and humanimals to fight against the heroes, while the heroes deals with the AwfulTruth they were created for unsavory and petty reasons]], while in ''Automata'' [[spoiler:the human race is ''already extinct'' and the reasons why the heroes (2B and 9S) are fighting against the invaders and the reason for their own existence are ''[[MindScrew nightmarishly]]'' complex]].

* ClicheStorm: One of the biggest criticism against the comic is the [[{{Pun}} uncanny similarity]] with both ''Franchise/XMen'' and in less degree, with ''ComicBook/AlbedoErmaFelnaEDF'', its spiritual antecessor, and the fact most of the villains lack redeemable features, being mostly very two-dimensional and their only role is being evil for the sake of being a villain. This is one of the reasons why the reboot tries to solve many of these problems by expanding the personalities of all the characters and giving the villains more motivations other than "killing and capturing anyone who is not human".

* CompleteMonster: [[PoliticallyIncorrectVillain Noah Adam Mahn]], the [[HumansAreTheRealMonsters cruel head of humanity's Science Division]], is the OverarchingVillain of the entire comic and the single greatest threat to ever scourge Alden. Mahn's forces wreak havoc and death across Alden, wiping out entire villages and a space station populated by well over a thousand innocent lives, targeting superpowered "hybrids" to either cow or mentally break them into their slaves while forcing them into breeding programs or to slaughter their own kind. Mahn's previous experiments with creating a sapient species ended with them being declared "expendable" and the entire species almost completely killed under his order, and Mahn announces his intentions at the end of the first arc to invade Alden and [[FinalSolution utterly crush]] the humanimals and their cities, enslaving whatever he doesn't annihilate. Even compared to his comparatively well-intentioned colleagues in humanity's fleets, Mahn is nothing more than a [[NotSoWellIntentionedExtremist xenophobic monster]] willing to put an entire species under his foot out of a rabid sense of superiority.

No groups if they are not a family or a species.


* TheWoobie: Every member of the Extinctioners and Solar Foxes (as well as many outside the teams) fall into this category when one realizes how much suffering they went through at the hands of the invaders. To be specific, thanks to the Hunters all the hybrids ended up [[spoiler: seeing loved ones mercilessly slaughtered, got kidnapped by the Hunters' forces (while nearly being killed if they refused to surrender), watched their homes get destroyed, suffered some form of degrading torture, and/or were brainwashed and enslaved into fighting against their own kind (including family and friends) if they didn`t accept the "offer" to willingly join the invasion (with Maxwell, Catrina, Artica, Sly and Zelda being forced against their will to work for Mahn, and a majority of the group nearly joining them in that mental slavery in the first arc [[note]] And while a majority of the heroes do get freed from their mind control, Zelda isn`t saved and is still under the Hunters influence as of the most resent issue, being renamed "Twister" and continuing to follow her orders without question[[/note]]).]] Hearing all this makes anyone want to hug and apologize to the animals for all the undeserved harm the humans made them go through.

No groups please.


* MoralEventHorizon: The Hunters waste no time crossing the line in the series, with their first acts involving [[spoiler: the brutal destruction of Alopex Space Station (killing off over a thousand innocent lives) and capturing Phoenix after aggressively stunning her, despite the fact that she just flew over to inspect their unknown ships with no ill intention at first.]]
