  • Author's Saving Throw: Early chapters seemed to favor Krieg too much, almost as though Lord-of-Change wanted the readers to see his actions as completely justified. This was not the author's intent (as admitted in Chapter 47), and subsequent chapters dialed back on making the Justice League look bad while also reminding the readers that Krieg's methods, while occasionally warranted, are too extreme in most cases; that the Imperium of Man is an unfathomably brutal regime that would be utterly reviled in any other time and place; and that the world the Justice League lives in, while not a paradise, is practically Eden compared to 40K 'verse.
  • Follow the Leader: The Inquisitor, starring an inquisitor-in-training named Dante, is a WH40K/YJ crossover with pretty much the exact same premise as this one (though there are differences, thankfully). The author borrowed a few scenes from this story with Lord-of-Change's permission. Lord-of-Change even put that story on his/her "Favorites" list, and gave its protagonist a cameo in the "Perchance to Dream" arc.
    • The story essentially gave birth to the idea of sending a young Imperial soldier to the Young Justice universe, and other fics have been created with Lord-of-Change's permission as well, such as The Justice of a Tech-Priest.
      • Notably, each new one has a level of Serial Escalation: in The Inquisitor, the protagonist has a massive Freudian Excuse, is a prodigy, and can play the game of Break Them by Talking with chilling competence; while the Tech Priest, Cardsharp, whom, in the span of one day, gets Batman to break his one rule, kills Red Tornado, destroys the Watchtower by crashing it into Roanoke Island, breaks into the Batcave and gains access to every piece of information Batman has at his disposal, and uses said information to blackmail the Justice League into leaving him alone!
