1	* Issue #4 consists of a sham trial that mostly consists of Orion prodding Scott over his beliefs and morals based on everything that's happened, including his lingering traumas and sense of resentment -- even to Highfather, who [[AbusiveParents he felt abandoned him before he could even be given a "real" name]] -- that have finally started to catch up to him. Even though it's ostensibly framed as a means to determine if he's been corrupted by the supernatural Anti-Life Equation, the matters on hand are ''very'' clearly real and visibly tear Scott apart. It's no wonder why [[TheDogBitesBack he lashes out as violently as he does.]]

26	* After six issues of Scott denying Orion as his brother, he starts screaming in horror and shooting out a RapidFireNo upon finding his bloodied body, even cradling it.
27	** Even at the end, we see that Scott continues to deny the kinship he had with Orion.
28	* [[https://i.imgur.com/tmu681O.png The variant cover of issue #10]] features Scott in his Mister Miracle costume, standing among a birthday party for Jacob, wearing a Batman party mask... and covering his face as [[ManlyTears he's very clearly bawling his eyes out]], since he knows that once it's over, he's going to have to surrender Jacob over to Darkseid.
29	* In Issue #10, while arguing over whether to hand baby Jacob over to Darkseid to end the war, Barda finally confronts Scott over [[DrivenToSuicide his suicide attempt]] in the first issue, making it clear how much it affected her since it first happened. It’s a legitimately heartbreaking moment.
