** The Mauler Twins' cloning method was first shown off in the show.
* AdaptedOut:
** The entire early story arc of Mark and Eve encountering their teacher who has been turning popular students into human bombs, basically making him Invincible's first real supervillain, is missing. His storyline is briefly alluded to in a background news report.
** Bulletproof, a Guardian of the Globe that did not make the initial tryouts but was later added due to his ability of flight, does not appear in events he was there for in the comics. Such as attempting to beatdown Battle Beast alongside Black Samson and losing horribly.
*** Similarly, because Black Samson and Monster Girl are hospitalized and recover around the same time, Monster Girl's bout of using the former's power armor in place of her own powers is cut completely.
*** There is also Magnattack, a man with metal powers and the most powerful of Machine Head's goons after Battle Beast, doesn't appear as well.
* AvengersAssemble: The first episode ends with the various members of the Guardians of the Globe called away from their lives to assemble at their headquarters, [[spoiler:where they are all killed by Omni-Man]].
* BloodierAndGorier: Even ''more'' so than the comic book (an outstandingly amazing feat considering that the comic book itself was [[{{Gorn}} extremely gory]]), since we get to see all the gore in full motion. [[spoiler:The scene with Omni-Man killing the Guardians is much longer than the couple of pages in the comic and, therefore, has more time to show their deaths in every brutal detail. Especially with Red Rush, Darkwing, and Aquarus, the latter of which gets his head bashed so hard, it resembles hamburger meat.]]

* AMillionIsAStatistic: Horrifically deconstructed in the final episode. [[spoiler:Nolan uses this as one of the reasons Mark's struggle against him and the Viltrumite empire is pointless, showing him just how easily a Viltrumite can decimate and kill an entire city of human people, throwing him into a busy street to cause massive damage and using his body as a kinetic weapon against a train full of people. While Omni-Man makes it clear how little he cares about the deaths he's causing, to the point of blaming Mark over it, Mark is completely horrified at what just happened.]]
* MistakenForRacist: Downplayed. When William starts openly talking about how hot Omni-Man is towards the beginning of episode 1, William interprets Mark's grossed out reaction as just him being grossed out by gay stuff, when in reality it's because it's Mark's ''dad'' William is talking about.

* ParentalSexualitySquick: One of Mark's first scenes is ScrewThisImOuttaHere because his parents are getting ''too'' affectionate in front him. He even says that one of the things parents should never do is discuss sex in front of their kids, and his mother lightly remarks that he should be happy that his parents love each other so much.

* TheNeedsOfTheMany: Much of Omni-Man's training for Mark is trying to instill in him the idea that he should focus on contending with larger-scale threats to humanity instead of simply focusing on saving individual people.
