** Galactus consumed Krypton in this story, and Brainiac helped him with it. Odin, telepathically feeling Krypton's destruction, sent his son Thor to Earth to be reborn, so that he could help defend Earth.
** Captain America's last mission was stopping the Nazi's Project Ragnarok, in which Baron Zemo participated. The Howling Commandos collaborated with [[ComicBook/SgtRock the Easy Company]].
** SHIELD detected the infant Kal-El's arrival on Earth and sent the ComicBook/MenInBlack to investigate.
** Grigori Rasputin (here a cultist of Trigon instead of the Ogdru Jahad) was responsible for bringing not one, but two children of Trigon into the world, Hellboy and Raven. For Raven's birth, he had the help of the Church of Blood, Baron Mordo, and Blackheart.
** ComicBook/ThePhantomStranger was sent to recruit Steven Strange to be the Ancient One's apprentice.
** ComicBook/TheSpectre was the original Spirit of Vengeance, sent by God to punish the evil, before he went mad and started persecuting all magic users, forcing them to form [[Franchise/HarryPotter the Statute of Secrecy]]. Now The Spectre is replaced by ComicBook/GhostRider, his chosen champion.
** ComicBook/TheMask was created by Marvel's Loki to [[KillTheGod kill Thor]].
** Thor grew up on Themyscira with Diana, until the Mask attacked.
** ComicBook/LexLuthor teamed up with ComicBook/TheKingpin and sent Jack Napier, Eel O'Brian and Flint Marko to sabotage ComicBook/NormanOsborn, who was trying to create super soldiers before him.
*** This act of sabotage led to the creation of The Flash, The Joker, Plastic Man, Sandman, Mr. Freeze, Killer Frost, Swamp Thing, Poison Ivy, the Parasite, the Floronic Man, Static, Beast Boy, Beast, Cyborg, Doctor Octopus and Green Goblin...and also cost Curt Connors his arm, putting him on the road to becoming The Lizard.
** ComicBook/DoctorDoom accidentally created himself, ComicBook/TheFantasticFour, The Hulk, Captain Atom, and Firestorm thanks to Rasputin tricking him into making a needless correction to his portal generator's coordinates.
** Dream of the Endless escaped his captivity in the mansion of Alexander Burgess thanks to the Sentinels of Magic.

* CantTakeCriticism: The Spectre flips his lid if people accuse him of perverting his original tusk of dispensing divine justice, even though they're correct.



* DecompositeCharacter: Marvel and DC's versions of Hades/Pluto are separate characters, as are Lucifer and Satan.



* LosingYourHead: Boy Blue cuts off the Violator's head with the Vorpal Sword. It doesn't kill him, but it does send him back to hell, and before he goes, the Clown swears revenge.



** Same goes for Boy Blue at the hands of Skurge the Executioner, who then nearly strangles him.



** Also played straight with Baron Mordo and Mordru. The first one is a mortal sorcerer, the second is a Lord of Chaos.

That's not the case here. Doom is blatantly rude and violent towards Bruce Banner, a shameless misogynist, and is implied by Ben Grimm to have killed his father, the former king of Latveria. And since Doom's the only Latverian to appear in the story, we never see him contradict this.

* SadlyMythtaken: In-series. Thor works out that something doesn't add up about the so-called hammer of Zeus, because the hammer is not mentioned in Themyscira's archives about Zeus, and there's [[UpToEleven not even any depictions of the hammer in the artwork filling Zeus' own temple!]] Of course, this is a JustifiedTrope because the hammer belongs to Thor, kept under Zeus' eye until his nephew is old enough to wield Mjolnir again.

* ThisIsForEmphasisBitch: Jor-El calls Brainiac a "son of a bitch" right before he kills him.



* UptownGirl: Zatanna is from an ancient pureblood family. John Constantine is a working-class Muggleborn. They're still best friends, though.



* VillainousValor: Deconstructed in Mordru's case, as it makes him too arrogant to KnowWhenToFoldEm until the Spectre defeats him and the Lasso of Truth snares him.



* YouTalkTooMuch: Hellboy says this to Loki while interrupting his WeWillMeetAgain speech with a NeckLift.



* WhamEpisode: The ending of the story reveals that [[spoiler: the Storyteller is actually Daniel Hall, the new Dream of the Endless, and the pub he was telling the story in is The Hog's Head in Hogsmeade, and the teens who heard his story are Hogwarts students.]]

* AdaptationPersonalityChange: Grigori Rasputin is not TheCasanova that his historical counterpart and canonical self was, never interacting with women in any non-platonic way.



* BadBoss: Darkseid, as per canon. Just look at the way he tortures Mordru for failure.



* CrossoverCosmology: Naturally. One of the main characters in this fic is a Norse god growing up on an island that worships the Greek gods, for instance.



* DeadpanSnarker: Quite a few characters- Wolverine, John Constantine, Hellboy, Loki...



* EarAche: One of Ivan's bullies tries cutting off one of Evan Hawkins' ears- after already giving the boy a NoHoldsBarredBeatDown- to see how well he can balance on his skateboard with one ear. Ivan stops him for pragmatic reasons.

* GodOfThunder: Thor and Zeus, obviously.



* HellHound: The Cerberai, bred by Hades. He considers the originals better than their mortal successors.



* InsufferableGenius: Victor Von Doom, as per canon. He's one of the world's sharpest minds, but he can't tolerate criticisms of his work.



* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Agent K is ultimately one of these.

* HandicappedBadass: Having nerve-damaged hands doesn't stop Stephen Strange from attacking Mordru when he's threatening innocent Muggles with his ImprovisedGolem.

* DiesDifferentlyInAdaptation: Instead of getting blinded and bringing his own lab down on his head, Baron Zemo dies by falling into the sea after Captain America blows up his plane, [[ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice and taking a ten-foot metal spike through his head]].
** In ''Film/SpiderMan2'', Otto Octavius' wife Rosalie dies in her husband's FreakLabAccident by being perforated by flying glass shards. Here, [[AdaptationNameChange Rosie]] Octavius dies from Jack Napier, the future Joker, shooting her.
