* OutGambitted: Imperius allowed Bowen and Case to get hold of his masking technology, which he had the means to counteract, so that they'd walk straight into his base thinking themselves hidden and he could finally catch them. Turns out, Bowen and Case knew the technology could be counteracted - and also knew that Imperius wouldn't be able to resist crowing too them about his victory in person, giving them a chance to steal his time-travelling belt.

* CutShort: The series was abruptly cancelled after Issue #4.



* FacelessGoons: The Infinite's soldiers wear full-body armour with blank masks.
* HeelFaceTurn: Core turns against Imperius after Future!Bowen tells him that that Imperius won't be able to cure Core's sister in the future, as he had promised. However, Future!Imperius claims that Core's defection will ultimately benefit the Infinite...



* FutureMeScaresMe: Bowen isn't exactly thrilled to see the sort of humourless bastard he'll turn into.

* SurvivorGuilt: Future!Case was the one who was originally meant to go back in time, but he was killed in the fight with the Infinite. Future!Bowen is bitterly certain that the mission would have been in better hands if he'd been the one to die instead.
* TimeyWimeyBall: There were hints that the time-travelling shenanigans were going to get ''extremely'' complicated if the story had continued, with both sides making use of knowledge of different versions of the future and sending back masked allies (who were probably future versions of other characters) to undo each other's victories.
