** The other three "heroes" in ''War'' are Vaarsche Lockney, Romeo Svengali, and [[Punny Name|Donna Matrix]].
** The blonde agent who assists Aeon in "Tide" is named RU-486, [[Meaningful Name|whose name comes from a birth control pill]].
* [[Animesque]]: Obviously the show's ''unique'' style of animation was at least inspired by Japanese anime.
* [[Anti-Hero]]: [[Aeon Flux]]'s actions are often morally questionable at best and she is generally portrayed as being cold, calculating, and (at least seemingly) heartless, although she does generally complete her missions for the sake of others. In the original short episode pilot, before the characters were fully realized, she filled the role of a satire of a typical action hero in that her wanton slaughter of Mooks is put to serious question, she winds up getting herself killed at the end, and doesn't even actually accomplish her goal, which someone else ends up completing independent of her and for completely different reasons.
* [[Anti-Villain]]: Trevor Goodchild is a morally ambiguous figure much like Aeon Flux is herself. He genuinely believes that his people are better off by submitting to his authority, just as Aeon is convinced that her borderline terrorist activities are also for the greater good.
