** Most of the Guthrie kids are dead and Paige blames Sam.Sam because he chose to focus on their mission at the time.

* BodyHorror:
** A techno-virus fused Tony Stark with his armor, the tech slowly "digesting" him so that he was essentially a dead body animated by his armor, prompting him to refer to himself as "Steel Corpse".
** Bruce Banner believes that being infused with mutant DNA caused him to become the Hulk.


Added DiffLines:

* DyingAsYourself: When General Castle takes remote control of Steel Corpse, Stark explicitly asks the other Avengers to kill him.


Added DiffLines:

* HeelRealization: Most of the Avengers have this when they realise that the mutants they're trying to hunt are basically just people born differently rather than any of them being naturally "evil".
* HeroicSacrifice: The Avengers ultimately sacrifice themselves to stop Hulk being used as a suicide bomber against Fortress X.


Added DiffLines:

* IgnorantOfTheirOwnIgnorance: Mutants in Fortress X have been convinced that psychic powers and seeing the future are impossible, when in reality those mutants with such gifts have been kept isolated to prevent them realising the truth about their false reality.
* MyGodWhatHaveIDone:
** Banner killed his fiancé and various colleagues when he first transformed into the Hulk, although he blames the mutants for it rather than explore the true nature of the Hulk.
** Invisible Woman betrayed the rest of the Fantastic Four after a mutant they were harbouring attacked her son, but she's clearly regretted that particular decision ever since.


Added DiffLines:

* SpottingTheThread: One of the first clues to the true nature of their situation is that some of the soldiers who try to break in to attack Fortress X are the same soldier each time.
