** Despite the high stakes nature of the crossover, Hulk only makes a brief cameo in the final battle.

** Despite the high stakes nature of the crossover, the Hulk only makes a pair of brief cameo cameos: once early on while the Justice League are observing Marvel's Earth and again later on in the final battle.

Justifying Edit that invalidates the preceding example.


* DesignatedHero:
** Superman is a {{Jerkass}} for most of the crossover, not TheCape as he's normally written.
** Captain America was also written this way -- it was given a vague explanation about the two heroes who were most closely tied to their own respective worlds being the most unnerved by the change in their accepted reality.
** The universes also have differing physical properties. At one point, Superman comments that sunlight in the Marvel universe feels "greasy", which probably added to his irritation.


* DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything: In Issue #2, during the final battle between both teams, it probably isn't an accident that in one panel, Hank Pym is depicted punching Wonder Woman across the face with a closed fist, especially considering that Hank's infamous striking of Jan would be revisited in both Issue #3 (see: [[https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/NeverLiveItDown_504.JPG Never Live It Down]]) and Issue #4 (in which Hank directly apologizes to her for having hit her). That being said, unlike Jan, Diana is more than capable of winding up and slugging him back twice as hard, as is shown in a later panel.

* HarsherInHindsight: Barry saying that he didn't mind dying because Wally West was holding up the Flash legacy. Then came the ''ComicBook/New52'', where one of the most notorious developments consisted of Barry being the main Flash while Wally was ignored with a younger, [[RaceLift African-American]] incarnation taking his place and not being restored to continuity until DC's Rebirth era.

* HilariousInHindsight: And HarsherInHindsight InUniverse -- Hal Jordan says that the JLA and the Avengers shouldn't try to "play God" with their realities and try to make them the ones they ''want''. Cue ''ComicBook/DCRebirth'', when [[spoiler: a [[ComicBook/{{Watchmen}} Godlike character]]]] has been revealed responsible for doing ''just that'' in creating the ''ComicBook/New52''.

** When the Scarlet Witch is transported to the DC universe, the location's magical properties provide a surprising boost to her powers, allowing her to unleash extremely destructive energy waves and modify reality in a larger scale, albeit at the cost of her physical health and mental stability. Later on, the Grandmaster awakens the Witch's memories of her lost children, which triggers yet another psychological meltdown. These plotlines, while fairly minor given the series' scope, became much more amusing after the release of ''ComicBook/AvengersDisassembled'' and ''ComicBook/HouseOfM'', which took both premises and used them to radically reshape the Marvel universe.

Added DiffLines:

* GeniusBonus: There's a page where a bunch of DC characters are stacked up against their Marvel characters on various chessboards. If you squint real hard, you can see Death of the Endless face to face with Marvel's Death.

* SugarWiki/DevelopmentHeaven: The cover for issue three. They could have simply put a generic cover with a dozen characters doing something vaguely heroic, but instead decided to draw every character who had, to that date, been a member of either team, no matter for how short, including staff, reservist and honorary members. [[http://cdn.ifanboy.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/JLAAvengersCover3.jpg EVERY! ONE! OF! THEM!]] Creator/KurtBusiek meticulously researched the history of both teams to compile [[http://www.comixfan.com/xfan/forums/showthread.php?t=22335 a list of 208 characters]] for George Perez to draw, making a beautiful piece of art and every geek in comicdom happy.
