- Base-Breaking Character: Depending on who you ask, Quentin Quire is either an entertaining breath of fresh air or an obnoxious little shit the writers are misguidedly shoving down everyone's throats.
- Nausea Fuel: Snot, one of the students at the Hellfire Academy, is this incarnate. His powers are basically super-sneezing and snot that's adhesive. He can't shut it off either and apparently killed a walrus just by sneezing in its direction.
- Squick:
- Broo eating shit off the floor.
- Kitty being impregnated by Brood eggs that infect her uterus. Just for the record, impregnating someone against their will? That's essentially rape, and one cover showing them all swarming around her as she's pinned down by them does not help with that.
- Tear Jerker:
- Broo's heartbreak when Idie dances with Quentin and then getting shot.
- Toad in Issue #41.
- They Wasted a Perfectly Good Plot: The Savage Learning storyline falls under this. The idea of troubled mutant students working together to escape the savage lands sounds like a good idea on paper. Unfortunately, the plot is immediately hijacked by Wolverine's family drama at the forefront, leaving the kids themselves Out of Focus. In the end, instead of the students using teamwork to leave the area, Wolverine calls off the whole exercise because he's too emotionally drained from fighting his brother, Dog Logan.
- Unintentionally Unsympathetic: Whenever Wolverine and Cyclops argue. We're supposed to support Wolverine because he wants to keep the children out of fighting, except doing so leaves them untrained and in danger in the future. He also doesn't give the children much of a choice for being with him or Cyclops. He regularly insults Cyclops and his team, and bad mouths them to anyone that will listen
- The kids aren't exactly untrained in fighting. Wolverine's school regularly schedules constant Danger Room sessions. In fact the entire place is a combat training facility, complete with toilets which attempt to kill (or, at least, seriously injure or maim) the students.
