  • In issue #4, after Spider-Man reads Luke the riot act and storms out, Dave Griffith suggests that the reason for Spidey's bad attitude lately is that he got around to reading Atlas Shrugged. Everyone else accepts this as a valid theory.
    Luke: Man, Ayn Rand's a hell of a drug...
    • Becomes a Brick Joke at the beginning of the next volume, where Peter admits he did read Ayn Rand in high school, and is utterly embarassed by his behavior at the time, which included yelling at a protester (a reference to the Objectivist views of his co-creator Steve Ditko, who indeed penned a comic where Peter acted hostile to some protesters)
  • "You dream of a coat so nasty."
  • After Iron Fist and Power Man had a run in with White Tiger in Issue #7.
    Victor: Power Man to all points or whatever. White Tiger just went God Mode on our asses.
  • "You can't un-see a baby MODOK."
  • During AXIS, Spider-Man drops in and sides with the Mighty Avengers against the Inverted Avengers by snagging Captain America's shield and making a speech worthy of Steve Rogers. A few panels and a "Super Sentai" Stance later, Spidey's lost the shield. Power Man questions what happened to it. "Dropped it. Rolled over there. I'm a pretty bad Captain America."
  • After the fallout of AXIS and Sam returning to his usual self, there's a montage of people fighting against the backlash he's gotten. One of them is a black woman and a Blonde Republican Sex Kitten on a thinly-veiled Fox News Channel parody. The black woman points out that if Steve Rogers had acted the same way everyone at the station would have rallied behind him, and brings up how the networks views the Punisher. The blond woman tries to get a word in, shouting "The Punisher is a Patriot!"
  • Spider-Man's reaction to thinking The Beyonder is responsible for everyone's woes?
