History ComicBook / WarOfTheRealms

** At the end of Issue #5 of the main series, Jane Foster approaches [[spoiler:the remains of ComicBook/UltimateThor's hammer]], saying, "There must always be a Thor," calling back to [[ComicBook/Thor2014 when she first gained Thor's power]]. [[spoiler:"And sometimes..." she adds as she picks up the hammer to transform, "...there must even be '''''more''''' than one!"]]

* CanonImmigrant: Luna Snow and Crescent, two characters exclusively created for the ''VideoGame/MarvelFutureFight'' mobile game will make their comic book appearances as part of the New Agents of Atlas with Jimmy Woo, Amadeus Cho, ComicBook/ShangChi, ComicBook/{{Silk}}, Wave, Sword Master and Aero.

* PoweredArmor: Odin survives the Dark Elves' ambush in the first issue, but due to the wounds sustained from it, he is forced to rest upon being brought to Avengers Mountain. While he recuperates, ComicBook/IronMan, in collaboration with Screwbeard and ComicBook/{{Shuri}}, builds an "Iron All-Father" armor for him to get him back into the fight sooner.

* HeroOfAnotherStory: The ''Superior Spider-Man'' tie-in is this. Otto, thinking he can save the Ten Realms with his arrogant genius, attempts to hijack the story, first by hijacking the West Coast Avengers for his needs then trying to hijack the Strikeforce hunting down Thor. Spidey repeatedly tells Otto to go home and protect Earth, but it isn't until ComicBook/{{Gwenpool}} explains this trope in a meaningful manner that Otto accepts his place and returns to LA to protect it.

* CasualDangerDialogue: Captain Marvel has to chastise [[TheCasanova Iron Man]] for openly flirting with the [[EvilIsSexy Angels of Heven]] during battle in the first issue. Tony in turn brags to Carol that his flirtation worked when the Angels express their desire to breed with him.

* CrisisCrossover: Seemingly incorporating every corner of the MarvelUniverse.

* StatusQuoIsGod: Sabretooth had years of character development trying to atone for his sins, deciding to become something other than the lie of his inverted self and truth of his evil self, and even fell in love with an X-Man, ComicBook/MonetStCroix. [[spoiler:Erase all of that because he's now back as a villain who wants revenge on the X-Men for making him a pet.]]

** The ''Journey Into Mystery'' series (written by the Creator/McElroyBrothers as a love letter to the bizarre pulp comics of the '60s) puts the misfits in a ''Winnebago''. Kate Bishop, Miles Morales, Wonder Man, Balder, Druid, Deathlocket, and Thor's dog Thori go on a cross-country road trip to keep Thor's baby sister out of the clutches of Malekith.

* MainliningTheMonster: Laufey's forces captured Ymir and are using human slave labor to chip off chunks of him that spawn Ice Giants for his forces.

War has been raging across the Ten Realms. Led by Malekith, his massive army of Dark Elves has torn through various realms and taken them over. With the Bifrost Bridge destroyed and Heimdall now [[EyeScream blind]] thanks to the Mangog's rampage, ComicBook/{{Thor}} has been unable to directly aid the other realms in battle.

* NiceJobBreakingItHero: In the ''New Agents of Atlas'' tie-in, ComicBook/AmadeusCho does this in their mission in Korea in a sequence of EpicFail. First, he ignores Jimmy Woo's advice to perform reconnaissance and tries to land the ship to help the Korean heroes, even though the heroes clearly had the advantage over the invaders. This leads to their ship getting shot down and Woo getting knocked out in the resulting crash. The Korean heroes then mistake Amadeus for working with the fire demons due to his attempt to take over America last time, which leads to the two groups fighting each other. Amadeus, trying to help, tries to dose the fire demons with water, only to hit [[AnIcePerson Luna Snow]] and accidentally freeze her instead. Whoops...

* DoppelgangerLink: In the ''Thor'' tie-in and final issue, [[spoiler:Old Thor and Modern Thor's existence is predicated on the survival of Young Thor -- their past self from the 9th century. Malekith quickly figures out that if he kills the hammer-less Viking, the other two more powerful versions will cease to exist, and orders his soldiers to focus on him]].

** The ''Journey Into Mystery'' series (written by the Creator/McElroyBrothers as a love letter to the bizarre pulp comics of the '60s) dials this trope UpTo11 by putting the misfits in a ''Winnebago''. Kate Bishop, Miles Morales, Wonder Man, Balder, Druid, Deathlocket, and Thor's dog Thori go on a cross-country road trip to keep Thor's baby sister out of the clutches of Malekith.

''War of the Realms'' is the culmination of plot threads started by Aaron since launching his ''ComicBook/ThorGodOfThunder'' title in 2012, as well as his 2013 event series ''ComicBook/OriginalSin'', which led to Odinson being deemed unworthy and [[ComicBook/{{Thor|2014}} Jane Foster]] replacing him as Goddess of Thunder.

** Channelling Gorr the God Butcher from ''ComicBook/ThorGodOfThunder'', [[spoiler:Malekith bonds to the Venom symbiote, manifests a Necrosword, and dubs himself the Butcher of Thors]].

* PuttingTheBandBackTogether: The Fantastic Four use TimeTravel to fetch All-Father Thor from the distant future of Earth-14412 and Young Thor from the fifth century of Earth-616, uniting them again for the first time [[ComicBook/ThorGodOfThunder since they fought Gorr the God-Butcher]].

* CallBack: At the end of Issue #5 of the main series, Jane Foster approaches [[spoiler:the remains of ComicBook/UltimateThor's hammer]], saying, "There must always be a Thor," calling back to [[ComicBook/Thor2014 when she first gained Thor's power]]. [[spoiler:"And sometimes..." she adds as she picks up the hammer to transform, "...there must even be '''''more''''' than one!"]]

* HeroicBSOD: Kamala enters the ''Champions'' storyline in this due to [[spoiler:Miles quitting after revealing he made a small DealWithTheDevil, Sam leaving to try to regain his powers, Nadia having her manic episode over in [[ComicBook/UnstoppableWasp her title]] and the growing rift between Viv and Riri over Viv's odd attempts to reveal her feelings towards Riri.]]

*** In ''[[ComicBook/DonnyCatesVenom Venom]]'' #13, one of Malekith's war witches tries to do this to Eddie Brock by offering him a dreamstone in exchange for him agreeing to serve Malekith. Eddie accepts... and promptly turns on her. This is according to her plan however, as she sets an equally empowered Jack O'Lantern against him with the ultimate goal of pushing him into giving up his humanity in bloodlust, making him a perfect pawn for Malekith. Eddie recognizes this and that the dreamstone's power is corrupting him, ultimately giving it up to wait out the war alongside his son.

* NoodleIncident: In ''Land of the Giants'', the heroes sent to retrieve Thor all realize he's in a berserker rage. Wolverine knows it all too well, Luke Cage mentions experiencing his own on the streets, Iron Fist mentions one of his while fighting ninjas, Captain America talks about having one because of Hitler, and Spider-Man was apparently involved in a Black Friday riot and somehow got a microwave out of it.
