- Adorkable: Science Pete acts like a child wowed by everything science-y he finds. Seeing Ben and Reed Storm at work makes him geek out and want to meet them. When cornered by them due to a massive misunderstanding, he breaks down into sobs and needs to be comforted until The Knight asserts himself.
- Anti-Climax Boss: For all the build-up and mystery of Devondra, it gets defeated pretty easily by Hulk. Who, to be fair, was using the Space Stone. But still, it's pretty embarrassing...
- Ass Pull: Gamora's Face–Heel Turn as Requiem. Not only was there barely any build-up or Foreshadowing, but the comic doesn't even explain why.
- Awesome Moments: Ghost Panther defeating the Martians by bonding Zarathos with Mars. Cue one very angry planet looking for some payback.
- Bizarro Episode: The Infinity Warps tie-ins, which have nothing to do with the main story, instead focusing on the warped versions of each characters. And are generally held to be the best parts of the whole crossover.
- Ensemble Dark Horse: Of all the Warps, Speed Weasel - supporting character of Weapon Hex - takes the cake, combining Honey Badger’s Adorkability and Attention Deficit... Ooh, Shiny! tendencies with Quicksilver’s speed and accompanying impatience to create something akin to DC Comics' own Ensemble Darkhorse Bart Allen.
- Hilarious in Hindsight: Spider-Man tauntingly called Thor, brainwashed by the Sigma Virus, as Iron Man in Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite. A year later, this series fused Thor and Iron Man into the Iron Hammer.
- I Knew It!: Some readers guessed the connection between the bad-tempered, sword-wielding villain Requiem and the increasingly bad-tempered, sword-wielding Gamora.
- Like You Would Really Do It:
- The event begins with Requiem killing Thanos, but no-one's terribly convinced he's going to stay dead this time (especially not with Avengers: Endgame coming up). Naturally, the first issue of the relaunched Guardians of the Galaxy that follows this event deals with how he's cheated his way back to living.
- Gamora "killing" Peter Quill in the first issue. Sure enough, it's undone in the very next issue.
- Memetic Mutation: Why is Gamora? Explanation
- Older Than They Think: Aside from the obvious association with Amalgam Comics, this isn't the first time Marvel's done a story featuring combinations of its preexisting characters. An arc in X-Men featured Cerebro creating artificial X-Men that were combinations different heroic and villainous mutants.
- Signature Scene: The most famous scene to come out of this series is Moon Knight spacing out and asking Spider-Man what's going on.
- So Okay, It's Average: The main series. It's not considered to be bad, but doesn't really bring anything new or special to the table either.
- They Copied It, So It Sucks!: A lot of readers complained how the event seemed nothing more than a blatant attempt to cash in the popular movie Avengers: Infinity War that was released the same year, by recycling the concept of the Infinity Gems.
- They Wasted a Perfectly Good Character: No one considered bringing back Cerebro's X-Men, combinations of different X-Men, as part of the Warps' world.
- Unexpected Character:
- The event's B-plot is headed by Sleepwalker. Fittingly, it serves as an immediate sequel to Infinity Countdown's Darkhawk mini series in which this trope was also in effect.
- In Secret Warps, some Fusions are between well known characters and obscure characters. Like Captain Marvel with Justice Peace.
